So, they didn’t have parents who could advise them that this was not a good investment? I really have a hard time blaming the lenders who saw a good opportunity since THE GOVERNMENT ITSELF MADE STUDENT LOAN DEBT UNABLE TO BE DISCHARGED VIA BANKRUPTCY! This is another case of “I’m from the government and I’m here to help.”

About half of kids today are in that position yes. Thank the divorce industry and two-earner families. The scope of the problem is unbelievable.
Maybe there were children who wouldn’t listen to advice. I wish all of my life’s problems had come to me when I was 18 and knew everything.
