Well, the GI bill does not exist in anything like the condition that you probably were able to use. As for helping pay for college, my grandfather assisted in part for my father to go to college. My father assisted me in part as well. I am paying for part of my sons' cost of going to school now. Most persons I know who went to college got more or less support from their parents. The person who paid their entire way is rare. Now some parents do go too far in debt paying, but that is an entirely different issue.
