[quote=Anonymous]My parents didn’t make much money and what little they had they spent on my college education. By the time my younger siblings were college age, my parents were older and the funds dried out. As such, my second oldest sister put herself halfway through college. She graduated and is doing well now.
My youngest sister flunked out of an exoensive private school that my parents sent her too because she showed academic excellence in middle school. My dad flushed what little savings and retirement savings he had to put her through. His reasoning was that she was academically gifted, she could get a scholarship to a good college. However she fell into the bad crowd, flunked high school and then wound up bumming out for a few years. She didn’t want to go to community college, she partiesnit up and focused on her music and art. She also got a part time job at a school as a kindergarten assistant. She is surprisingly good at it.

Meanwhile all her peers have graduated college and are now starting jobs. For the first time it has hit her that she screwed up. She is deviated at being so behind. And now instead of enrolling in a community college she is yelling at our parents for being poor and not financing her education. She tells my dad he is a user and tells my mom she shouldn’t have had kids if they couldn’t afford it. She wants an all paid enrollment at any four year institution so she can have the college experience. I tell her to enroll in a college and pay her way through. She says I have no right to speak to her as her family screwed her over.

What to do? [/quote]
