[quote=Anonymous]I love the helpful advice like have fewer kids. Might as well say, live in the past when college was cheaper. We also have four kids and we approach it like anything else in parenting--do the best you can and realize you can't do it all. No one can predict the future but we've been told that college will be about $200k for in-state tuition, room, and board when our preschoolers are ready to enroll. So our goal is to have $100k for each of them to cover half, pay for another 1/4 while they're in school, and let them pay for 1/4. Maybe we'll even get lucky and one or more of them will receive a scholarship. Who knows, although we obviously can't count on it. There's a lot more that goes into having kids and being a part of a family than paying for college. It's an important part of the big picture, but it's not everything. So keep going on vacations with your family and enjoy your time together, just try to be reasonable about it. [/quote]
