[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for starting this thread OP. We are on a similar journey but for our kids. We have 2 kids with special needs (dyslexia and possibly autism). And we ended up with 80k in loans for services for early intervention. And they have higher interest rates because they are in essence personal loans. It turns out there is no insurance coverage for dyslexia and intensive tutoring runs about 20k for 6 weeks and we ended up in a private school. And ABA therapy is only covered for autistic kids with diagnoses but we did it in preschool so that he could join mainstream classrooms. It was so worth it because our kids are thriving. But we’ve had these “student loans” hanging over our heads. We are down to 20k more to pay off and we can almost taste it. We don’t have any plans either. We will immediately start the retirement and college savings back up. But the idea of keeping a small refund check is lovely.[/quote]
