[quote=Anonymous]We started down this road with our DD when she was young to help her fit in. (Admittedly, my parents made us work for everything, and unlike other kids I went to school with, never had cool clothes or haircuts or anything.) She is now a young adult and we are having a difficult time cutting her off. She is out of college, has a good job, but doesn't make nearly enough to provide a lifestyle that she's accustomed to. It was easier to make older DS become responsible because he didn't do as well in school and doesn't have the high maintenance needs. So even we see the disparity of how we treat our kids. Not sure how to fix it. Very long way of saying that if you can't say no now, OP, good luck cutting off a child with these expectations later. Based on the comments here I wish we had made her get a job and pay.[/quote]
