We are not using one penny from our retirement for college. We know that our retirement has to come first, college tuition 2nd. We're just worrying like most parents do. And as for you, if you choose not to worry, well hey, that's o.k.
Anyway, Miss Kitty, we are hoping for scholarships but that's something you don't find out about until the very last minute upon acceptance. In the meantime, there's the hope for flawless auditions. And then after it's all said and done, it will never be a great paying job in the end.
Now maybe if he was an engineer like his dad, you know, a practical, normal profession, then maybe he could eventually pay back a college loan. But I can't see saddling him with a $100k student loan. And that's what most liberal arts colleges run these days.
Also, I'm not feeling guilty over this. It has been lots of fun. Scary, eye opening, exciting, and definitely fun.
(Sorry KDW. Maybe I've hijacked your thread??)

I can't believe that the day is here. It was with a heavy heart that I watched my son get in a car this morning to go to high school. It just made me realize that I probably only have about 4 more years with him at home. I am sure it will fly by. So, to rest of you that have done the same thing, or will this month, I will keep you in my thoughts. May they all be safe!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for the other.
