Oh and people working for a grand to spend on your useless expenditures like condoms, beer, and haircuts does not all of a sudden mean that you worked really hard throughout school. So while others shouldn't make comments about you being spoiled, don't think for one second that you somehow turned back any potential argument they might have with some stupid logic like that.

I feel the same way and Rudey has a very good point.

I'll pay for my children to go to school as long as they are pursuing a degree that they will actually use. I don't want to feel like I'm throwing my money away.

I also agree with the second point. Just because you work in college doesn't mean you aren't spoiled. Some people work a few hours here and there in college to buy beer and sheit like that - the things your parents wouldn't buy you

I have "adult" friends who have graduated college and work full-time but still pretty much live off of their parents (parents pay their rent, car payment and other stuff like that).

Brush your shoulders off.
