They can make sure their child is getting the best education until college. The better a student does in High School, the more likely that student is to get scholarships and student aid. Also, scholarships are often awarded for involvement in service activities or involvement in a desired future field. If a college student doesn't have to worry as much about paying for school, he won't have to work as much and can devote more time to studying.

What would your parents do for a living and what would you do when you grew up?

Parents need to earn money so that they can care properly for their children. It does not matter what particular job they do, but they need one which pays reasonably well. When the children grow up they should follow the good example which has been set by their parents. When they have left education they should try to "pay their way" with their parents by contributing part of their income to increase the family's income pot. When their parents are older and retired, the younger ones should help to care for them in return for their parents' years of child care.

This is entirely dependent on the child support ordered with the court.

College professors are not "government aided" in any way. They earn an income from the college where they teach and a large of percentage of the college income is from tuition.
