I’ve seen the nieces and my own kids ask for and get babysitting services time after time from a busy working boomer. In my experience, my kids expect more of me for their kids than I expected of my parents for mine. It never occurred to me to ask Mom or Mom-in-law to come watch my kids. It’s my grandkid!”.

I saw that you don’t exchange Christmas gifts with nieces and nephews on your side. What did Christmas and birthday gifts for nieces and nephews look like when they were young? As far as Christmas stuff I do now…well, last Christmas and this Christmas, I’m in single mom and full-time college student mode.

One of my nieces did this when borrowing for college. While it may be tempting to borrow ‘just a bit more than I need’, don’t do it. The excess money may just disappear with no benefit to you. Now she has much more debt than her education should have cost. Ask yourself if you are borrowing from the best place.

For 20 or so years I’ve been homeschooling my kids, and am now down to about 1 1/2 (one full-time homeschooler, and one doing College Credit Plus with some support). We also want to get our kids through college without them having loans to pay back, and we are 1 out of 4 on that so far! Also we can stop when we want or need to.

Being a part of the Disney College Program has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. Have Mickey Mouse mail my niece a postcard! Now that I have officially got accepted and begin my journey as a Disney cast member, I want to make the most out of the four months I will be living, earning, and learning while at WDW.

I had been at my previous job for 17 years (straight out of college) and it had turned into a very toxic situation. I’d send some to my nieces to help with their college expenses and would donate half to our local food pantry. How long have you been reading The Frugal Girl? Fancy restaurant food.
