College is not such a drain on the parents if the child works their way
through school.  I stopped getting an allowance ($.95) at age 14.  After
that I had to make my own spending money (I did AV work at my highschool).
My parents contributed nothing to my college expenses except for those
entailed by my living at home.  I paid for fees, books, transportation, and
medical insurance myself (no car).
