[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I can’t relate to people who say they could not save for college because their kids went to private school.

Since our country offers free school thru high school but not free college, why would you finance the former before ensuring you could cover the  latter?[/b][/quote]

Some of us choose to send our children to private school for religious reasons.  [b]We have a right to raise our children in our faith.[/b]  In many other countries, these religious schools would be partially subsidized by the government.  Other parents may have children who would flounder in public school (due to learning disabilities, introversion, etc.).  The early years of education are the most foundational.[/quote]

Where did you see someone say you didn't have a right to raise your kids in your faith?  But (i) it's entirely possible to raise a religious child in public school, and (ii) if you choose not to, fine, but it comes at a cost.  And no, the government shouldn't subsidize your faith.  [/quote]

The government does subsidize faith - that the charitable contribution deduction you get on the 1040.

Duh.....[/quote]
