[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids don't have individual right and parents have chosen to give up a lot of their rights by becoming parents.

But if you mean nuclear family vs extended family? Nuclear family always comes first. Money flows downhill and is for the youngest generation. There is no family responsibility from children to parents. [/quote]

Why should't adult children help out parents?[/quote]

Depends on the parents and depends on the kids.  My parents used money in an effort to control me when I was under 18, in many cases didn't supply even the basic things any decent human being would supply for their child, obviously didn't help pay for college or anything related to college.  It wasn't an issue of them not being able to provide things, it was a conscious choice not to.  Yes, lots of people will say parents don't owe their kids things (though I would disagree about the basics they failed to provide).  A few years ago my brother suggested I send mom a monthly payment to help her out (even though she eats out, shops and spends more than we do).  Not going to happen.  My brother was treated differently and thinks we "owe" her.  Ha.
