Yes, pressure from family. My father would pay for school but only if he got to choose the field. Being breathtakingly lazy as a teenager instead of researching my options for grants, loans, etc. I just went with it. He really did not so much pay for my education as invest in his own future--he's got three care-takers in the family and he is counting on us in his old age! Sound cynical, bitchy? It's the truth. Yes, I didn't have to take his handout (see: lazy) but I am paying for it now.
