Happy Anniversay to both Patti, and Jennifer!
Mark, it is fairly common for young adults of your daughters age to get consumed in dept. My nephew did the same thing. I am pretty sure his folks bailed him out. We are trying our very best to instill opon our children the value of money,and to advise them not to get in the dept. hole. We have helped the older two out with college and they have also had to work for it. Both of them will come out with a small amount of dept, compared to there peers. Thanks for the heads up about the years coming up only to soon. I guess we do the best we can and hope that somehow something in the end sinks in.
Debra, good luck with your daughter. I am sure you have asked her anything going on a school, or with friends? What I tell my kids is my biggest regret is not finishing college.
To all, we are in this together, and this is a great place to vent and get some support.
