[quote=Anonymous]Applying to only 8 colleges to save money seems short sighted. Why pay for test prep to just hobble your child's chances at the finish line? Why are you angry about paying for the little things? You will teach your child only about unexpected bills popping up because you have no previous agreement with her about specific responsibilities. You will turn money into a wedge between you as you are using it as a weapon when it becomes convenient. You are the type who suddenly won't pay one semester if she didn't get a job at the campus Starbucks. You need to decide if money means more to you now or your child's education. For reference: We pay $60,000+ OOS per year. 1,000+ rent and $700 food misc. per month. We cut the food down from 1,000 when she dumped her BF. My DD seems fine with money. Got a job during the school year and an internship over the summer. Has saved $8,000 of her money. [/quote]
