That last paragraph regarding the 4 year party, is exactly why I wont 'require' my kids to go to college, if they choose a career that needs college then of course they need to go, but I am not paying for a 4 year party, just cause they are doing as directed.
Actually even if they study the whole time, I don't want my 18 year old doing what I said...I hope to raise them well enough to make the choices they want for the life they want (college certainly doesn't help me run a house and home educate!)
Though I have to say that if I had more money I would put more away for my kids (or rather give them an allowance or job around the house or something..prolly 'side job' so GMC would get more money, and UE wouldn't get any yet. and of that money they would be given the chance to practice the habits of donating/saving, and spending)
