That’s an excellent point. that would’ve automatically meant “not an option” in my book.

It also depends if the adult thinks they can treat the college student like she child. This is my personal bias, though. I believe a big part of college is living independently, and not having to account to see relative if one wants to come home at 4am.

My dd rolled in at 5am Sunday she told me as I didn’t know when she got home.

But I disagree w this. For me independence comes at too high a cost. For me personally, I believe it’s not worth an extra 30-40k to be independent of parents. Obviously my Dd1 agrees w me. If my others do not that’s their choice and their debt so I will support what they choose.
