    Parents want to save for their childrens education

    I dont want my children to take

    loans. In my culture its a parents dutyto have the savings to help them.

    I had to interrupt my education after

    two years and go to work. I saved andborrowed to be able to go back to

    school. Now I have four children and I

    dont want them to have that problem.
