[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not reasonable. Your child is going to go to college as an adult. [b]This is a crazy limitation. [/b]If there is truly a life changing emergency you can shell out for a flight for that unlikely opportunity. It’s not about you anymore, it’s about your child becoming independent. [/quote] So do you think not having enough money is also crazy? If you don't have the money, you tell your kids just like you tell them you don't have the money to buy them a car or a horse or whatever else they ask for. [/quote] DP. If the reason is money, then the most important conversation should be about cost and potential for merit scholarships or need-based aid, not about distance. OP has yet to identify a specific school, unless by her reference to Wisconsin and Indiana she meant the public flagships, which are 57k and 59k out of state, in which case the focus on cost should have ruled these schools out, not distance.[/quote]
