[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had three go through college and never asked grades. Only info I ever got was when any of them happily announced Deans Lists or financial awards because success. We/I believe that once we decided to have children we wanted to give them every opportunity we could and then trust them to be responsible with their decisions. We paid majority of tuition for our kids education-borrow what we needed, had them get (is it Stafford?) loans. As we saw college as very much one of their first adult decisions we did not choose the colleges for them, require specific majors. All 3 graduated in 4 years. Two went on for advanced degrees. One borrowed for an MBA (3 years out she told me she’s almost done with loans as she first concentrated on maximizing money for a house); other got full ride for law degree though borrowed some for living expenses. [/quote] Sounds like your kids didn’t need you to push. Some do.[/quote]
