We put our kids thru college, state schools, none of that private Ivy league crap....
It is the best thing you can give your kids in this era, a paid for college degree in a major that makes them employable.....
What's worse, most kids these days are coming out of college with a degree and absolutely zero actual work experience. Most of them have never had a serious job in their lives, they've demonstrated no work ethic, they think that just because they have that piece of paper in their hand, they deserve a high-paying job.
Sorry, paper or no, they're just not qualified. Back in the day, we worked all the way through high school and college, we paid our own way and when it came time to take our newly minted degree out for a good job, we had a decent work history to put on our resume that proved we were not only educated, but responsible as well.
