So at what point do you think saving for tuition is supposed to happen? My husband and I took some nice vacations before we had kids. Was that wrong? Then we bought a house…now we don’t go anywhere (except my mother took me to Iceland recently).

How do we balance tuition vs life needs? My kitchen needs to be redone because there are nails sticking out everywhere and its dangerous. Is it wrong of me to redo it? Is it wrong if I use good quality (and more expensive) materials so it lasts 40 years instead of 10?

My post is serious…I know I will have to ask for a tuition break because my husband and I have 2 kids but don’t have a spare $30,000 to pay for our kids education. I hate asking for a break but there is no way around it.
