[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents paid for college and law school.  I worked super hard because it was my parents’ money and I always work hard.

I knew someone in law school on loans who never went to class.  He was very smart but never worked hard.

Hope your husband’s values didn’t trickle down to your kids.  [/quote]

+1 My parents paid for college, and I worked very hard and never missed class because I knew my parents were paying a lot of money for me to be there. It's pathetic that OP's husband didn't work hard because his parents paid for his college. Hopefully, their kids have better values.[/quote]

Same here.  And, I always had to show my parents my grades and was accountable for them.

My husband did have college as an opportunity after high school and it was really hard for him to get his degree in his 30s.  We will absolutely pay as we don't want ours to struggle.  And, our kids know our expectations and they are accountable to us in terms of grades.[/quote]
