[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous[b]]Tell them they should go to community college for a year or two and figure out if they are going to put in the work needed to succeed in college.  Many State colleges have automatic admission for students with a certain number of credits coming from community college. [/quote][/b]

This.  It's a very reasonable and cost efficient plan.  VA, and California are states with vibrant community college transfer programs.

[b]Unsaid it the fact that the OP said her kids were in parochial schools.  Some Catholics believe that large families and the gift of life are paramount and secondary education comes after.  That is not me, but it is a fact.  My kid was in parochial school and there we met many families with huge families.  In some of these (12 kids!), the kid is on their own at 18.  The parents cannot afford college.  That is the parents' choice and a view I don't share but one that some Catholic (and Mormon) families have. So give OP a break.[/quote][/b]

+1. You are all imposing your values upon a family which you know nothing about.  Some families have different values.[/quote]
