[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here - thanks for all the replies! My older kid is at a top 25 that we are paying for with a 529 account. The second child (middle) will not be accepted to a top 25, and wants to go to an SEC school . . . These responses are helpful and it’s good to know I’m not being unreasonable [/quote] The fact that you’re already paying for your older child to go to (presumably) the school of their choice changes the equation….so essentially you’re going to tell your middle child we’re willing to sacrifice and pay 100s of thousands of dollars for college for your older sibling because you’re not smart enough to get into a top 25 like them you have to go to the free college that we dictate in your hometown.[/quote] Yeah, this is a recipe for resentment and family disharmony.[/quote]
