[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We pay everything, plus a credit card, plus a few hundred a month for spending [/quote] Does your child contribute anything? My son works in the summers and uses the money he earns for books, personal toiletries, school supplies, laundry detergent, fun spending money. That's what I did when I was in college too. I almost dropped out at one point but thought "I'll be damned if I am going to throw away nearly $1000 in books and then have to pay back my student loan." I think it's important to have some skin in the game.[/quote] No. No contribution on DC behalf. DC works during summer but saves that money for extras. TBH, DC uses own money for quite a bit because wants to build independence (DCs words). Spouse and I both had our college and all expenses paid by parents, so it’s kinda of what we expect to do for our own. [/quote]
