[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is taking away his financial aid money an option? If you have guardianship. [/quote]

I still have guardianship of him, but he usually always deposits his refund checks since he had his own debit card now.[/quote]

I mean, it would be the most effective strategy if you’re open to it… no card no check no money no junk food…[/quote]

And also no learning about money or shopping or budgeting. Not the choice I would make, but I'm not as fat phobic as most of dcum.[/quote]

New poster. It's a health issue. We meet our kids where they are. He can learn about money shopping and budgeting with the scaffolding he needs. He isn't making good choices so you intervene and then slowly pull back once he learns to use his money more appropriately. Yes, plenty of kids are making poor food choices that's why obesity, diabetes, and colon cancer are on the rise among young adults. You don't need serious medical issues on top of everything else.[/quote]
