my parents paid for all my years in college . it would have cost me a small fortune , so i am forever thankful to them ! how nice of them . my oldest is paying her own way . i wish i was in a situation that i could help her more . yeah , i felt really lucky not having to get student loans ! i 'm sure it was a huge relief not having to worry about loans . i 'm still dealing with mine and i graduated in 2008 .
The person's child paying their own way through college triggered the feeling of gratitude.
