[QUOTE="clean hairy, post: 1505845, member: 55223"] I don't get it why folks put off retirement because they have kids to put through college. I know times have changed, but I took Student Loans, got a small grant, and did the college work/ study to pay for college, and paid 10 yrs to bring the Student Loan balance to zero. My Parents did not just say "here you go" and pay for it all. My Daughter went to Community College to get her 2yr, and took 3 years to do it, she could not afford to do it in 2yrs while working and taking classes. Sure, my Parents helped with $ to get home for the Holidays, and a few $ here and there. We helped our Daughter if she was short and had to buy one book she could not afford, and with a bit of $ at times, but I and she both have a great appreciation because it was our $$ that paid for our college. So, why do Parents owe their Children a College Education? Please help me understand. [/QUOTE]
