[quote=Anonymous]We never set a limit. We cover the cost of tuition, room, books. He has a job. We pay for him to fly home for holidays and breaks, we cover the cost of the car. He covers the extra's, if he needs something and can't afford it and its a real "need" we discuss and determine how he will obtain it (we buy, he pays back etc). We have found this allows him to budget and keeps an open line of communication about needs, wants and budgeting. We laugh because there are times we tell him he needs a new coat (he's in a cold climate) because he's out grown his and he tells us "its still just fine" so he's not a person to spend on things he doesn't need.
