[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you making an economic decision or a supposed parenting decision? [/quote] Both? My parents never paid for my cell phone (I’m 45 so they were uncommon when I was in high school). I never had my own car until I bought one myself when I got my first job out of college. Parents stopped paying my rent once I graduated from college (never paid it during the summer) and I never got food money (college didn’t have a meal plan). I realize that my experience is not typical for the majority of DCUM, so trying to figure out a balance between encouraging independence and being a supportive parent. DCs will stay on our health insurance until they are 26, or have employer provided health insurance, whichever comes first. They don’t have their own car so no car insurance to pay for. The phone this the one I was most curious about. -op[/quote]
