Tuition?

Long ago, I heard of a case where a couple that were several thousands of dollars in tuition debt over trying to send there children to private school that they made a deal to clean the bathrooms for an entire school year to reduce the debt. Has anyone ever heard of making a deal like that? Is it possible?

Hmmm well another story was parents were short $560 paying there daughter highschool tuition and the daughter got a deal to work in the school library after school to work off the debt. I can understand $560 but several thousands of dollars of unpaid tuition?

Anythings possible when it comes to paying past due debt. Sometimes it's better to get what you can rather than nothing at all. (From the debtors viewpoint)

yes $560 for a few weeks work sounds far more reasonable.
Maybe it was the final year of school, and they had no money so came up with a deal of some sort? you just never know, where there is a will there is a way. Strange i fully agree but definitley possible
