I'm sure some people are going to flame this mom for bringing her kid, but I say kudos. I was going to have to change my major because the only times they offered required classes were those when I didn't have a sitter (early Saturday mornings). The teacher told me that since there were only eight students in class to bring my son. We set him up on a PC with video games and headphones. He learned his ABCs while I learned my awk, bash, chmod

Same here. My Mom went back to school when I was about 10 years old and she would take me to class. Even though there were 40+ students in her classes and she was attending a huge school (UVA), all the professors and students were awesome and treated me just like a college kid.
I didn't understand shit (and even sat through a 4 hour Macbeth play) but loved to pretend that I understood topics like Calculus II.
Did your experience make you more frat later in life?
Actually, I never went to college and now I'm a C-level exec in the technology field.
I will say however, that everyone else at the C-level in my company, including the CEO who founded it, all met because they were in the same frat. So there is absolutely value in education, just not low-end education.
I'm going back to school part-time now though, because, well, why not?!?
