<p>jrcsmom- you are to be applauded! You went well beyond the extra mile for you and your son. Being debt free will allow him a lot of choices in his near future that those saddled with heavy debt won’t have.</p>
<p>We took a similar but less intense version ourselves, and child 1 will graduate debt free. It took sacrifice and a little ego swallowing too at times but well worth the possibilities it creates.</p>
<p>My hope would be that forums like this or even presentations for parents in early elementary and middle school would take place to allow others access to the great info here and elsewhere.</p>
