Education debt is ok. You are making an investment in yourself, and as long as you are gaining knowledge on how to be a smarter, more productive person, and at the same time eligible for a stable job that will help you pay back the loan in a few years after graduating, that is ok. You will be working for many years, you might as well hope to be able to make it in a field that you enjoy.
And working while going to school doesn't work for everybody. And I'm not sure how common it is for parents to help pay for college.
