[quote=Anonymous]If my kid wanted a no name $90K school, I would have totally failed as a parent. All their lives, we have tried to get them to consider the cost of things and whether it’s worth to them. They haven’t always made the choice I would make, but it’s considered and they can articulate why. If I were willing to pay for Harvard or state school, and my kid wanted to go to a Dartmouth or a Williams, I am hoping they would be able to explain to me why that would be something they thought would be worth the price. I would absolutely hear the out and they would likely persuade me. If they wanted to go to a totally no name school, and it wasn’t special in some way they can articulate to their banker (me), that’s not going to happen. But I don’t think my kid would choose it or ever bring it up because we have taught them all their lives to consider cost. [/quote]
