Anyones family finances are none of my business, but I am intrigued by the insinuation by some that they owe their kids an education. I was never under that illusion from my parents, and I don't intend on putting my children under that illusion either. Don't get me wrong my parents helped get me into position for me to earn my way through school and have done many things to support me, but they never cut a tuition check and I never expected one. In the people I interacted with in school there certainly was a difference between those who were cutting the check over in Fairchild Hall out of their own account and those whose money was mailed in from home. I'm glad I was in the former group I think it drove me to make it a better experience for myself.

You make an awful lot of assumptions about those of us who choose to pay for our kids college as well as judging the kids. I don't look down on those who make their kids pay for their own college and I expect the same respect from them, thanks. |
