Eh. Isn't a better position for your child to have a viable post-graduation plan? Nothing wrong with a liberal arts degree per se.
That’s fine, but I’m not paying for it. Join the military, scholarships, whatever, but frick your liberal arts degree. STEM.

It’s going to suck when all his daughters are going to want to be stay at home moms.

LOL. OK. I know people with liberal arts degrees in the private equity industry making more money than a lot of your EE majors will ever see, but you do you.

Community and State Colleges exist for a reason.

So glad I won’t have to pay for my kids college. Surely one or two will find good jobs and be able to help out.

I'm helping mine but only costing like 5k a year due to him getting a partial scholly and not going to an overrated and expensive school.

Recently paid for both of my children's college education (two undergraduate and one graduate). Did not take a single cent in loans. Not a penny.
Both are completely debt free.

Its a stepping stone to a grad degree.
But damn, is it easy compared to most majors.

i have the opposite philosophy. i would encourage my hypothetical kid to get a good liberal arts degree then go to business school, law school, or continue in academics (can be a pretty great lifestyle tbh). do internships in different fields while in undergrad, if possible.

pay it for three years post grad, then the kids gotta pay their 600 a month.

The hell with those kids.... partially those kids fault for allowing their dad to do that! Get a damn job and finance school yourself and don't put that burden on your parents... especially when there are 5 kids

sounds like a dirtbag of a parent.
If you tell your kids that you're going to pay for their school, then you can't go back once they have money & ask them to help you pay for it now.
I would be upfront from the get go on expectations, but truthfully I wouldn't be the guy putting myself into this debt regardless....but hey, thanks for calling me a dirtbag, you worthless sack of shite.
