[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you want to do this to yourself?[/quote] +1 sounds like child cruelty. Is the education really worth damaging a child's feeling of self worth? Not sure if pretending it makes children strong and resilient Would be worth it to me. [/quote] I didn't mean it this way. I meant that unless your child had special needs of some kind, why would you condemn yourself to 12 years of incredibly high-priced education you can just barely afford? Surely you have something better to do with that nearly $40K per year over the next 12 years. [/quote] The issue is your choice of words. Condem? It's far from that. No I can't think of anything better to spend it on. The one thing no one can ever take from you is your education. Being educated is priceless. Does it require $40K a year? Maybe not, but what else is really worth $40K either? I can't think of anything else...[/quote]
