Yes, actuI do have final veto power over where my kids go to college. I can’t believe you don’t! I guess your kids don’t respect you at all. That’s so sad. |
+1. |
| Exactly. Our money, we get to be involved in where and how we spend it |
Blacks in Alabama are like 28% of the population and only 11% of the state flagship? That’s pathetic. |
No there are none. Please stop perpetuating the lie! |
| Why do you think our children don’t feel as strongly about this as we do? My daughter is 16 and agrees with my stance 100% and is fine with limiting her possible college list to schools in states where abortion is protected |
| Luckily DD has no interest in attending any school in red states and laughed when she gets their barrage of information and promising merit aid. |
No you have zero say in where your adult goes to college. None at all. Believe it or not there are kids who are paying for their own school and don’t need mommy and daddy’s pathetic approval. |
Great! Will be easier for my kid to get into UVA!! Seriously you will skip a top college like UVA, Rice, etc in these states for the ruling of the govt in that state? It’s not the colleges’s fault and they are not going to leave the state either. Anyways , your kids are only in school for like 6 months anyways… |
Again, currently. Not for lack of trying to put stupid each other. It is just around the corner. OH tried |
+1. I wouldn't let my son attend school in one of those states either. Part of it is on general principle and the other part is the concern that birth control could fail and he could get some girl pregnant in a shithole state where she'd have no options. No thank you. |
TX is worse than just the abortion nonsense |
Ok, fine. Let them go oos and pay their own way. Good luck with that My kid knows without our money, there is nothing more than community college (which is of course a decent option for many and I am not putting it down. It’s just not a full 4 year degree) If she wants our money to help, we get to set limits. And this is one I will not negotiate on. And again, she agrees with me so we have zero problems. |
It’s not a lie. No exceptions in Arkansas, North Dakota, or South Dakota. Limits on exceptions in Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Idaho, Oklahoma, Missouri, Tennessee. But, if it’s a “life from conception” and “abortion is murder” there shouldn’t be any exceptions, right? Route to conception doesn’t matter, right? |
Mmmm. Your kid isn’t getting into UVA anyway. Maybe George Mason, maybe. |
