[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s face it. Everyone who pays for their (grand)child’s college education is complicit. Few of my friend’s had parental help and we graduated from Top 20 schools. We paid with summer jobs, small jobs during during the school year (8-10h/wk), scholarships, and student loans. My mom took out a $2k loan my first year, which I paid back within a couple years after starting work. Sure, I got a small care package every semester with some snacks but the rest was on me. I am proud in having paid my own way. Ditto many friends. We also paid for our own weddings and houses. Grown kids now don’t even pay for their own phones, some are still taking money from their parents. If we really want to make college affordable, parents need to stop paying. [/quote] How about you let us make our own decisions about how to spend our own money. [/quote]
