[quote=Anonymous]"Right now, I like being able to do all my home tasks while the kids are at school so we can all just chill on the weekends, and I like spending after-school time with my kids since they are going to be gone so soon. At this point I'm not going to get a job that wouldn't let me do those things so they can go to a more expensive school. That is just my choice."

But you said you don't even have enough saved for the public school. You can't even cover that, so why are you distracting us with a discussion about whether kids should attend a more expensive school?

I would bet you that if you asked your kids their senior year whether they would rather you had worked and saved enough for them to attend UMD or UVA instead of "chilling on the weekends" or have after-school time together, they'd say they wish they had the college funds. Instead, they'll be hoofing it to Montgomery College for at least two years so that you could get your home tasks done when they were at school. Ridiculous. [/quote]
