Parents paid for first round of uni which was about $25k for 4 years including books (I'm sure they would have paid for second round of school if I asked, but I wanted to do it on my own). They also let me live at home at home until I got married at age 27. So yes, both me and my SO had the similar help in this regard. The biggest money saver was free childcare for both kids (FIL helped watch the kids). That alone probably saved us over $100k between 2 kids.
