If you've got kids, encourage them to not go to college. Push them into a trade. If they don't like working at McDonald's, the reality is that they're going to be doing that, anyway, but at least they can do it without the debt.

As for shameful, I don't view it as shameful to be mad that I can get out of any other debt in bankruptcy, but for trying to better myself, I'm getting screwed. And maybe I didn't make it clear enough: I'm going to try to pay them back. I simply don't have much hope that I'll be able to.
I've got relevant experience, I'm going to have a degree very soon, and I have zero hope for the future. If the time comes, and I can't pay them back, I'm simply going to stop trying and run for the hills.
