[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should not be doing this, they are an adult they need to give you a budgetwe they think they need and then you decde whether to fund it. We paid rent utilities and food. They worked summer jobs and jobs at breaks for everything else. We could easily pay their way they need to learn how to budget and control their budgets.[/quote] This is what did/do. We pay all tuition, apartment and utilities. Flights home, any medical things, etc. Stipend for food to learn how to budget. If they blew the food budget on something else, either dip into their own money from summer work or figure it out. That's all part of learning how to become an adult. Like PP, we could easily pay their way and give them virtually unlimited access to money, but what would that teach them? Nothing good.[/quote]
