It’s the ultimate contradiction. As you drive away , you try and determine the source of each tear ! Sadness or Pride . BTW , for all 4 years , it never changes . You will NEVER stand in your driveway longer than when you watch him pull away to go back to school , after a break.

It's a shit ton of money and you never know if it is going to work out. That they will find happiness and satisfaction with their lives. Good luck!

Good to know you have a perfectly normal kid. Tuition is expensive, but education is still the best investment you can make.

Are you saying you overpaid?

Ha! Daughter was like "thank you for paying, now just go"
Reading this from Scandinavia and thanking whatever/whoever made my great grandparents return home 100 years ago. 💫Blessed💫

Bwhahahahahahahahahahaha 😂🤣 he has no fucking clue how fortunate he is have a father like you to pay for his #college. That amount of money is a fortune 4 most families, & college is unattainable for most #Americans. Why the fuck are #universities charging that much money for #Education!?

As Barack Obama observed, the job of a parent is to teach their kids not to need them (but a little appreciation would still be nice).

I loved it when my son did this. He pretended to be an independently wealthy orphan who was being followed by a crazy old lady. 🤭 Bless.

Someday soon he'll say, "Dad... thank you." You'll say, "For what?" "For wearing those glasses. I didn't know you kept them after all these years!" Our kids appreciate the little things more than we know. 😊
