Speaking of 4 years, another good point is that you should make it clear to your kid that college is a 4-year endeavor. Not 5. Not 6. Not 8. I'll cover my daughter for 4 years of undergraduate school. If she decides to change her major 6 times and needs 5 or more years to earn a degree, she's going to have to foot the bill, or at least a much bigger piece of it.
Yep, she's that strict, she also won't let her girls wear make-up, get their ears pieirced, go to a school dance untill their eighteen, etc....etc..... I could go on and on.......

learning to live well without spending alot of money
