[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Why does "supportive parents" seem to be code for "covers as many expenses as possible until mother is able to take over?" [/b]This would be a huge financial difficulty for many older parents, especially since continuing to cover college seems to be part of the support package.[/quote] Because realistically what 21 yo is prepared to shoulder these expenses on her own? If she can't breastfeeding, formula alone is going to run you a couple hundred dollars a month.[/quote] well, there's WIC for that. the main new expense would be flexible childcare, which "supportive" parents may be able to provide for free, as well as housing. a daughter who was willing to move back home and go to part time/night classes may be able to get through college without needing huge amounts of cash.
