[quote=Anonymous]I would put him on a budget. He can work over semester break to earn some spending money. He also needs to line up summer employment. During school, that should be his job. Give him a reasonable goal as far as grades (3.5?) and as long as he produces, he gets his weekly allowance ($50?). If he's not producing in school, then maybe your DH is correct. Given that it's the end of the semester and exams are approaching, maybe send care packages instead of cash. If he's able to earn and save $500 over break, then tell your DH that you feel it's good for him to learn to budget his money and that you want him to concentrate on his studies so he can get a good job upon graduation. Suggest $100/mo to supplement his $500. He should be good on $1000 from when he returns in January until he gets home in May.[/quote]
