Your kids have just gone to schoolies and every night you go to sleep fearing the worst but the worst is yet to come. I can promise you it won’t be the drunken vomiting or a drug overdose.

It will be your child’s complete lack of preparation for what comes next in their lives. Every single year I tell parents how important gap years are and they rarely believe me. They come to university open days, asking questions on behalf of their children (who often sit there, blinking, mute) with a vision of the future firmly rooted in the past. It's law and accounting, it’s medicine and engineering; and it’s got zip to do with what comes next. This is not individual to the university where I teach.
