[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. There are a lot of very generous grandparents. My parents are quite comfortable and we have a good relationship with them, but I can't imagine them ever paying for our kids' tuition. [/quote]

I'm not going to lie, I'm a bit jealous of people with said grandparents. But good for them! I certainly wouldn't refuse such help if it were possible. I sure hope I can be financially conservative enough to help out my own grandkids some day. 200HHI, paying 30K for 1 kid but only for 4 years of high school. Definitely could not manage private from K all the way through 12th grade. We live extremely frugally, have a lot in savings, and value education above everything else.[/quote]

We comfortably paid $30K on less income than that so not sure why it is such a struggle.  Usually people saying they are living extremely frugal are not and have expensive mortgages.  [/quote]

Good for you! I'm glad you're so comfortable and happy with your choices! But keep in mind other people have different savings goals, family needs, long term needs, priorities etc. I see nothing wrong with getting help from grandparents when grandparents offer.[/quote]
