[quote=Anonymous][quote=doodlebug][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like you should back off until the kids are adults and then they can ask you for help if they want it. [/quote] Until the kids are 18, you can make offers to assist...[/quote] 18 is far too late to make much of a difference. Kids would love to go to college and get away from home and step-father. But again, the household is ignorant about how to become prepared.[/quote] So set up regular "dates" with the boys where you invite them over for a day or an overnight, do something fun and sneak in some college talk. [/quote] That is what I was thinking as well. I full well know that college is not for everyone, but I believe in being prepared for whatever opportunities may avail themselves. They will never be able to make the choice to not attend college if they are never prepared to get there.[/quote]
