[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been living close to downtown Bethesda for more than 10 years, know hundreds of people from elementary, middle and high schools in the area because my kids are older teens, and NO, this is not a common occurrence, OP.

Why are you so obsessed with other people's living arrangements? We have no family help or high salaries, yet I have zero issues with the people who do. DH and I will be the generation who helps their children. If you have money, you'll do the same for your children. See how that works? Why is it a problem when others do it, but not when you do it?

Your jealousy is making you really stupid.

PP, we may live in the same Bethesda neighborhood.

OP is talking about DC. Have you ever lived in DC? There is a world of difference. OP is speaking of Old Money DC families who are preserving wealth by keeping it in the family. Super common among DC Old Guard who’ve been here since 1920s  or earlier. Bethesda barely existed then - earliest homes in my neighborhood are from the ‘30s, with most from the ‘40s. Even here, there are people living in grandparents homes, etc. [/quote]
