minus-square@givesomefuckslinkEnglish0•5 months agoNot just “don’t have money” they don’t want to gamble decades of debt on if they’ll both graduate and find and keep a well paying job post graduation. It used to be that everyone thought it was worth it, now people say it’s not. Like, when you think about, putting that decision on a teenager is pretty fucked.
