Same here. Single parent teacher and I am glad I can pay his HS tuition out of pocket. [/quote]

You've saved nothing for college, but are sending your kid to a private HS?[/quote]

Yep. My mom did the same thing. My DS can take out loans for college just like I did. He will work in the summers starting at age 15 and save his money for car insurance and later books and other college expenses. I did it and so do plenty of other people. I don’t know why people are so anti-loans. I took them out for college and grad school and then paid them back by living frugally for about 5 years. Our local HS is meh and I don’t want to send him there. We all make choices and I won’t regret this one at all. [/quote]

Np:  you do understand that college is much more expensive now then when you went, right?  My large, state university education was $28k for 4 years - the same school is now almost $28k for 1 year.  [/quote]
