Default Re: Anyone here saving for college?

I am working on making sure the college isn't a waste of time for my DCs, DH was paid ride for quite some time, waste when a Computer Tech guy spent all that loot knowing all about chemical engenering!

So I have two goals,

1. Help DCs know what they like, by letting them do anything they like to test it out now when it is relativly cheap. (I knew what I wanted to do, but not allowed to pursue it)

2. Help KEEP the love of knowledge, so they learn ALL the time, not just when paying to learn.

Prolly not what you are looking for but I think these are two VERY important points that a lot of parents with kids hating school miss.
