College Student Debt in America

October 28, 2013 | 1 Comment

As the economy started to decline, two things were on the rise that continues to escalate today: the cost of going to college and the prevalence of student debt. The cost of tuition, residence, and books has been rising at a rate that has never been seen before. As the current generation’s debt piles up, it becomes even harder to send the next generation to get an education.

In order to figure out where we are headed, Consolidated Credit has looked at where we have been. They’ve created this informative infographic to show a generational look at college tuition and debt, from our grandparents in the 1940s to the future generation. Unfortunately, the numbers are very alarming, especially for current and recent college grads.

Basic Principles Of Good Parenting

Here some basic principles for good parenting:

  1. What You Do Matters: Your kids are watching you. So, be purposeful about what you want to accomplish.
  2. You Can’t be Too Loving: Don’t replace love with material possessions, lowered expectations or leniency.
  3. Be Involved Your Kids Life: Arrange your priorities to focus on what your kid’s needs. Be there mentally and physically.
  4. Adapt Your Parenting: Children grow quickly, so keep pace with your child’s development.
  5. Establish and Set Rules: The rules you set for children will establish the rules they set for themselves later.  Avoid harsh discipline and be consistent.
  6. Explain Your Decisions: What is obvious to you may not be evident to your child. They don’t have the experience you do.
  7. Be Respectful To Your Child: How you treat your child is how they will treat others.  Be polite, respectful and make an effort to pay attention.
