Try to have a conversation around what this diploma “unlocks” in her life that she wants. If all she needs are a diploma to flash while witching, there are cheaper diploma mills that take less time.

Edit: Reading back it sounds like I’m being light-hearted about this. I’m not really. At some point children are adults that make bad choices that are out of your control, and the best you can do as a parent is to not alienate them by trying to prevent it but help them think things through.

That’s not the same as encouraging bad decisions, but accepting them. In a year or two that thinking may be what they need to make better choices, and they will still trust you to talk things through.

I run a yet-to-be-accredited diploma for a degree in applied horse reiki if anyone wants. My course syllabus is just one sentence long:

All degrees are issued under a pseudonym so as to stay off the radar of the Horse Reiki Mafia.
