So you know these women well? Know their family situations? Know for sure they have no physical or mental health disabilities, have no elderly parents or other dependents they spend hours caring for, have no home-based or part time business on the side, don’t buy knockoffs or second-hand clothes or used cars to save money? You must be pretty good friends to know their financial situations so intimately, but you’re so condescending and dismissive. Do you treat all your friends that way?[/quote]

NP, but everyone has a mental health disorder or disability in 2024. Plenty of them work. Get over yourself.[/quote]

I quit when my kid was born as they had health and other issues.  They were in therapies for 10 years.  During that time, for 6 years I cared for my mil with severe dementia at first in our home then a nursing home (there multiple times a week for doctors appointments, check in as the facility was terrible).  Now I have my own health issues.  I haven't worked in 12+ years so I'd have to start over and earn $60K a year max, not including hiring someone to drive my kids to activities (though they miss a lot due to health issues) and buy a car for that person which would probably be equal to my take home after taxes.  So, is that really worth me working?  [/quote]

DP. I am sorry for your situation but you still have not justified why others should pay for your child's education? We have a slew of reasons why we should not work etc... [/quote]
