[quote=Anonymous]I intend to pay for my children's tuition and room and board through my savings and if needed loans and will expect them to work part-time to earn their own spending money. My parents refused to help out with any of my college or living expenses and I honestly thought it was pretty shitty of them. I think this is b/c they almost seemed to take pleasure in not helping us. I never would have expected full support, as I recognize I was an adult and responsible for myself, but offering to buy groceries or a book sometimes would have gone a long way. Oddly, my dad now makes a big deal of money he is saving for my children's college (to include email updates to me on how much he has saved). I even told him once to give the money to my very financially challenged niece b/c I will take care of my own kid's, but then dropped it b/c I realized this this savings it is between my dad and my kids and I have no right to interfere.[/quote]
