I remember a time when college tuition was free for residents at the City or State University system, regardless of income. That ended a few years before I graduated HS. Between scholarships and the state Tuition Assistance Program, my college tuition for the first 2 years I attended was less than just the tuition for my senior year in HS.

Right now both mom and dad are apologizing to our girl because we are both having difficulty finding real jobs. She’s only 10, but at times has a better attitude than either mom or dad.

That's amazing!

I'm awfully sorry to hear that and I really hope you both find something soon! Your daughter sounds like an absolute sweetie and a *big hug* to all of you!
