[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 229872, member: 1697"] the financial aid part? Im not quite sure why you are so opposed to it? If your daughter was not pregnant, was she going to pay for college as she went? were you going to pay for her college? Im a little confused..however she was going to pay for it before finding out shes pregnant, why does that have to change just becuz of a baby? many schools have work progrms, so thats not exactly "charity" and many schools have on site day care..some schools use their on site daycare for the early childhood programs so it is like doubly beneficial. When I was in nurseing school, some of my co workers came from other countries and they kept asking me why I had not gone to get my nurseing degree earlier.....they were shocked to find out I was paying for my school on my own along the way..they told me our country sent money to their country to pay for their college...they assumed everyone here got to go to college for free. Our community college just began a new program THIS semester...ALL HS graduates from our college district will now get FREE college providing the begin college in the semester immediately follwoing HS graduation. And ALL GED graduates have gotten free community college for a few years.....the thought behind this is that providing an education NOW helps people get established so they CAN be productive and hopefully- they will "pay it forward" but at the very least, never ever land in an unfortunate situation hwere they would need welfare or whatever. Matter of fact, I think it is almost required at our community college for a student to do a FAFSA no matter what, before they register for any classes. [/QUOTE]
