[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course it's reasonable. My oldest kid started college across the country and I didn't have enough money for me and siblings to fly out. (I'm a single mom.) I wasn't worried because kiddo was always very self-sufficient and independent. Plus, we had a relative who said they could help. Well something came up Spring semester, that relative was too busy with work and I could not afford to go out. Kiddo finished that year but ended up deciding not to go back. I should have insisted they choose a closer college. [b]The entire year was very stressful because finances were too stretched [/b]and kiddo was so far and couldn't even come home much. [/quote] It sounds like the real problem was that you couldn't afford school, not that you couldn't afford the specific location.[/quote]
