[quote=Anonymous]I give my son a plate on my credit card account and he has a full meal plan. He definitely has not spent $1,500 in a school year. He mainly occasionally buys convenience store food and small items. Easily less than $100 per month at school. At 7-11 and Target, mainly. We often pay directly for expensive things directly, when he's at home. That includes school season football tickets, clothes, glasses, and classical music concert tickets. This is the same way my parents treated me in college. I used the credit card rarely, mainly occasional purchases like mail order clothes. I received ticket packages as presents for Christmas and birthdays. We like theater and music shows. He is responsible about extra food purchases so I don't restrict it.[/quote]
