article makes a few interesting points :
1) is it fair to ask "children, 17, 18 or 19 years old, to try and assess how much of a student loan debt burden they can handle vis-a-vis their future income over their entire lives"?
2) "people under indentured servitude had the job waiting for them"; students do not.
3) Obviously, after living a lifestyle one cannot afford for several years, it will take more than several years to pay off the debt.
Student loans are not indentured servitude; living above your means is.
- jbellis 17y ago> is it fair to ask "children, 17, 18 or 19 years old, to try and assess how much of a student loan debt burden they can handle I don't know about you, but I discussed that question off and on throughout high school with my parents while deciding where to apply for college. It's not like it was a surprise one morning where I had to decide with no time to prepare or ask someone more experienced about.
