Thanks Brad I'm stronger today than I was last night so things are moving forward When I got home yesterday afternoon I needed a little help lifting my left leg up the 4 steps to get to the deck. I just went out to see where I'm at this morning and my leg cleared each step by 2".

I pay 20k the rest is on them both spending money and the difference in tuition. Smart kids would have gone to the cheapest school and had money in their pocket. Instead they chose to pay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has been given a lump sum in a joint account for her education or, to start another endeavor (with my permission and guidance). It’s up to her how it gets used but she is still required to have a PT job during college. A day or two a week of work is good for anybody for several reasons, IMO. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of my kids were required to have a pt job since they started driving. No job = no driving. I think teaching your kids about earning money and a good work ethic,is more important than any 4 year degree. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
