Just like we pay the price for kosher food, we have to pay the price for education. One feeds our body the other our mind. We have all done it, of course with Hashems help. I’m sure your friend can find a school who will work with them. I do not regret one penny I paid in tuition, my children are now grown and I am enjoying the nachas. I feel that Hashem has rewarded my husband and myself for all the years of self sacrifice, many years we were late on rent, or mortgage, had to work with the utility companies not to shut us off etc., but we made it! we made for our kids.
