[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA was not our backup, but we did pick William and Mary over UVA.[/quote] Lol “we”[/quote] DP but yep, it’s a “we”. We talked about the financials together and decided. I’m not letting my kids make huge financial decisions (that I will mostly pay for!) without the bigger picture of what it means. Now, had he decided he didn’t care that he would have thousands in loans after, I guess I would not have stopped him. But for sure he didn’t just come down one day and tell me where he’s going. [/quote] 100%! People here get triggered whenever a parent suggests that it wasn't just their non- independently wealthy 18 year old kid making the college decision. Granted, what the kid wants is important, but most kids would not be able to go to college without the parent's finances. Therefore, I don't see a problem with making the college decision somewhat collaborative with the parents. [/quote]
