[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 702899, member: 1550"] I actually understand the tuition funding IF you are not financially stressed by doing it and if she is a good student. My son whom we adopted from abroad then left in adulthood was mega brilliant. He skipped college declaring "I'll be sic years ahead of my peers." Adults love him and help him and he is a millionaire plus today with an enormous house and inground pool, a wife and two kids (I never met the kids). He owns his own business. Regardless of his attitude toward us, I am grateful every day that since he doesnt want us in his life, he doesn't NEED us in his life. It takes worry about him off my chest. I know he will always be self sufficient. It beats worrying "Did I do right? Should I do more even though he doesn't want me around?" If it will ease your mind about how she will do in life and support herself, do it for you, if not her. What I mean to say is, I can see both sides. Of course she can get loans too. My daughter got through school on loans and grants. We didn't have funds to send her, but did help her navigate to get help. So it can be done. Have a good day. [/QUOTE]
