[quote=Anonymous]It depends. I put myself through college so I definitely worked. I was lucky though in that I went to college at a time when it was possible to make most of what I needed for the year by working 3-4 jobs during the summer. Between what I was able to save and financial aid, I could limit school year work to just work study campus jobs. Frankly, that's all I could handle during the school year. But I poured myself into my school work and graduated with many honors and distinctions. I was in the library on Saturday nights. If my kids do the same, I'll have no trouble helping them during the school year so they don't have to work. If, on the other hand, they major in partying with a minor in beer pong - and they have the grades to show it - then they can go get a job at McDonalds and wait to go back to college when they are prepared to take it seriously.[/quote]
