My aunt went the same route. She’s a surgical nurse. started at a university but her scholarship didn’t cover enough. Found a great program/opportunity thru a community college that lead to an internship that lead to another program that paid for all of her schooling. Her journey was a little longer but she left with no debt and more experience giving her more earning power

No it's not a legal obligation but to a lot of parents it is a moral obligation and can be seen as a part of her nurture and guidance to at the very least be a consultant. I don't know why she is making 25k a year; personally that is unacceptable to me but she may not know how to negotiate or be uncomfortable advocating for more or like you said there could be other reasons that are prohibiting her from increasing her income. I believe regardless of income, you should absolutely concern yourself with the decisions of your children, specifically at the tender age of 18. This is where young adults get manipulated and bamboozled and end up with 56k dollars of debt with an income that is not sufficient to pay it off.

I don’t see it as a moral obligation to pay for tuition. If you took care of your child or children up until their 18th birthday especially as a single parent, you satisfied both your moral and legal obligation.

I could not agree more about community college. I went to community college before I got my BS, and it was the smartest decision I ever made. I got good grades while there, and it allowed me to be able to go to a very expensive 4 year school after I had my AA, get massive scholarships and graduate from a school that was, in 2003, about 50k a year with only about 30k in college debt. Many of my friends left that school with 200k+ in student loan debt after 4 years there

My sis was working a job in a hospital (husband was military, she took any job she could get at each deployment) and her hospital would send her to train as an RN. They would pick up the bill; she would owe 2 years of working for them OR until husband got orders. She has a BA in another field and was able to test out of everything except the clinical stuff....and every assignment husband had from then till retirement, she was able to function as an RN. She called and asked my opinion before accepting the offer--I pointed out that "worst case, you might have to drop out of choir; you are already never seeing husband as he is always working. Is the caller trained enough to test out of anything? I don't know. But if she doesn't get started, it will never happen. If she does get the RN, she can expect her income to more than double right after getting her license. If the hospital won't pay for it, community college is cheap!

I think most people aren’t working in a field of their passions honestly. You might try taking some tests based on your personality that figure out what might be a good fit for you. Sorry to hear about the learning disability. I’m sure that can make it hard. There are many jobs that don’t require complicated training though that you could be great at

the problem is not a debt problem nor a budget problem, its a income problem, if you have a low income there is no easy way for it, there is no baby step to get you out, you need to get into a decent income, im not talking about 100k or 80k or something like that, but just have a decent income, 40k a year is like $18 an hour, either get more jobs or move to another career, 24k is nothing
