We did pay for both my daughters undergrad expenses and her graduate medical school as well. While we were fortunate enough to be able to pay for these expenses ourselves and not have to ask her to contribute, the equation would have likely changed if we had five kids were putting through school versus one.
That being said, we did set limits. We told my daughter we would pay for her undergrad to anywhere she wanted to go. However, if she chose a public university where costs were lower, we would also pay for grad/med school. In hindsight, giving her some skin in the game to choose wisely and do well while in school probably was our best decision.
