American parents are more likely now than in recent years to say that their children should pay for college: The proportion of adults saying their offspring should pay for most college costs rose from 27pc to 32pc over the past two years, with those advocating that children pay every cent rising from 12pc to 15pct, says CNN.
Accordingly, the proportion of parents planning to help their children pay for college declined 4pc points to about 77pc this year. Yet 96pc of respondents said they continue to view a college education as valuable.
