More U.S. Parents Tell College-Age Children: You're on Your Own


American parents are more likely now than in recent years to say that their children should pay for college: The proportion of adults saying their offspring should pay for most college costs rose from 27% to 32% over the past two years, with those advocating that children pay every cent rising from 12% to 15%, says CNN. Accordingly, the proportion of parents planning to help their children pay for college declined 4 percentage points, from 81% last year to about 77% this year. Yet 96% of survey respondents said they continue to view a college education as valuable.
