[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]18 is too young for college. Kids should work or travel or join the army or something first. Grow up some.[/quote] My husband is retired military. One of his biggest regrets is not having the opportunity to go directly into college. Military enlisted life is very hard. It is not easy to work and be deployed and get their degree. It is not a typical job. It also is not easy to join always as one makes it sound. They are doing troup reductions. Traveling costs money. My parents would not have allowed either. They were not ok with an 18 year old traveling alone. Fine if those are your values but ours are to help or pay all, if possibly. [/quote] Army reserves was a good option for me. Paid for almost all of my college using the GI Bill + tuition assistance + monthly drills and there was only a minimal amount of disruption to attending college.[/quote]
