[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see no problem with saying you're not paying unless they have a good career plan of what they will do with their degree. My parents said they would pay, but we needed to be working towards a goal. My siblings and I all chose different degrees and have had successful careers, and a great relationship with our parents. It came from a place of "we don't have endless cash, make smart choices", not one of control. I think the framing matters.[/quote] I agree with this. I got a full ride so my parents didn't have to pay, but my sister majored in "Asian Studies" and my parents put their foot down and told her she had to get a teaching certificate to go with it. A friend majored in something stupid and her mother was ok with paying for it because, in her words, she was expecting her daughter to get her M.R.S. She wouldn't have let a son major in something silly.[/quote]
