Neither of my parents attended college. My father has only an 8th grade education. But they managed to pay for my tuition, books, and provided a monthly allowance. I appreciated every dime my father had saved for my college education, and made the most of the experience. I worked part time to pay for my sorority dues and car.
MRAXOMOM3 had it pretty easy - never had to work, parents bought him a condo while he was in school, and he is about three classes shy of a degree 15 years later. I think he realizes now that if limits had been set, he might have actually been a little more serious about school.
We don't intend to hand our girls everything on a silver platter. We will however give to them as long as they appreciate it and use the gift wisely. I hope they will also appreciate being "spoiled"!
