[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents did not support me at all in college, I paid for everything with working and student loans. My husband’s parent’s lived like paupers in order to give their children nearly full-rides to school. We are looking for a middle ground. I think it is important for the student to have some financial responsibiliy for themselves as a young adult. I think I matured more quickly than my peers whose parents paid everything, but I was really stressed about money a lot of the time too. [/quote] This is how my husband and I feel, which is not common on these forums. Having to partially pay for college ourselves helped us become financially responsible adults. My parents paid their part through loans, not sure about my husbands. Our goal is to save 100k per child. Maybe we will adjust that over time but as parents of a newborn that is the plan.[/quote]
