[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With these incredibly high college costs, is it really worth the money for your kid go somewhere other than a college/university near home? Wouldn't you get a bigger bang for your buck by sending them to a local university and having them stay at home instead of paying the exorbitant room and board fees? It's not like they couldn't go out with their friends at night or the weekend![/quote] I agree with you except for one thing: It IS worth the money to get this kid out of my house. And with this kid, it will grow her up in a good way. So I'm paying for my own sanity, and for her to grow up some. Yes the price is worth it. My other kid...she could live with me forever; she's very helpful and kind. But I think that's because she's very independent--already acts like an adult. So she doesn't need the push and could stay home.[/quote]
