How the financial pressures of paying for college affect the lives
and well-being of middle-class families The struggle to pay for
college is a defining feature of middle-class life in America.
Caitlin Zaloom takes readers into homes of families throughout the
nation to reveal the hidden consequences of student debt and the
ways that financing college has transformed our most sacred
relationships. She describes the profound moral conflicts for
parents as they try to honor what they see as their highest
parental duty-providing their children with opportunity-and shows
how parents and students alike are forced to gamble on an
investment that might not pay off. Superbly written and
unflinchingly honest, Indebted breaks through the culture of
silence surrounding the student debt crisis, exposing the unspoken
costs of sending our kids to college.
