[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We give our DDs way too much based on this thread. [/quote] Us too. DS lives off campus and we give him $200 a week. I have been to his nearby grocery stood and food is expensive. We don’t need to force him to make pasta every night. He does work about 12 hours a week at the school and uses that for recreation like Spring Break, road trips to away games. Not that this factored into the equation but his tuition is free due to scholarship and he lives in a house. With 4 friends so rent is cheap. He has done well in school and worked during summer since freshman year of high school. I don’t feel he doesn’t know how to budget and there is plenty of money both in his 529 and just our circumstances in general. Based on this thread I know I am going to get blasted but it feels like the right amount for us. Yes, he has built up some of his savings by using our money but I don’t feel it’s a problem. He graduates in May on-time. [/quote]
