[quote=Anonymous]Good God, You should not. I was one of those young people in DC - Best learning experience, ever...Lived in a group house in a ridiculously small room/alcove, never drank more than two happy hour priced beers, did all the free stuff I could muster and generally was pretty creative about my life...I always thought my peers who were getting out-patient help were very lame. And, you know, it's obvious. everyone can guess what people are making - and when your clothes are fancy, and you have a fancy place to live and you drive a hot car and you are someone's assistant - you look like a horses ass and it impacts your ability to succeed. I mean, slip your kid 50 bucks here and there, that's fine. Take them out for a nice meal when you visit, super. Buy them nice clothes for birthday's/christmas or a special surprise (and by nice, I do mean a versatile piece of work clothing or a suit or something), by all means! But make your young adult be an adult and live on a budget...please. it's good for America. [/quote]
