Is anyone else not sending their kids to college?

We have saved for college for years. Our youngest graduates next year. I saw the letter in the mail from our state university and opened it. It was $28k per year in-state. That's insane. We cannot afford that. <br><br>When do they expect kids to be able to save for college on their own?. How is it that they can charge so much, and no one bats an eye? I know prices are going up, but wtf. <br><br>I am so surprised at the cost of tuition. We cannot afford this. Our state used to have low cost tuition. It was something parents could work a job and save for. Not anymore. I feel like this is the end of the middle class. <br><br>If you cannot afford college, where and who do you go to? Every job now requires college. How in the hell did this happen?
