Student Loans Before Kindergarten

At Slate, Jessica Grose unpacks the idea of parents taking out subsidized student loans to pay for private preschooling and says that what we should really be thinking about is finding more money to fund public preschools. I still can’t get over the idea of parents taking out loans to send their kids to preschool.

I distinctly remember being in preschool, but don’t recall how my parents paid for it. Now that I think about it, it might have been because it was a Head Start program. BRB, calling my mom.
