[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents didn’t pay a cent for my college. I got a mix of scholarships, grants and loans. I went to grad school entirely on loans. I don’t think a parent should limit a child.[/quote] Almost all 18-year old students are not fully capable of making a well-informed and wise decision about something like college loans that could negatively impact their lives for decades. Study after study has shown that the human brain is not fully developed until a person is well into their 20s. Our job as parents is thus to guide our kids into making good decisions, even if it may sometimes mean vetoing an option, especially when there are plenty of good educational opportunities that are more affordable.
