[quote=Anonymous]No it is not. It is actually parenting.
I am not going to pay for my 3 kids education. 
I do not care what other people say.
I am not obligated by law to do it.
We cannot afford it and will not do it. Kids still will not get financial aid.
So they will have to work and study as I did.
Work, save money, go to community college. Then transfer to good college.
Also can wait until 25 and get financial aid.

Another option is Merit Scholarship in the middle of nowhere.

Third option. If grades are really good:
Go for work-study program. Parents pay for one semester. Child goes for work-study, pays for next  etc.

In any case, even if we decide to pay some amount I would get legal agreement  that child is obligated to pay parents back every penny in 10 years (without interest) and show grades every semester.

That is parenting, and taking care of yourself and your kids.

I do not want anybody to waste my hard earned money,and kids need to know that bread does not grow on trees.[/quote]
