[quote=Anonymous]Your goal as a parent is to raise self-supporting adults who can live without you. Part of the "self-supporting" part is refusing to fund items/activities with which you do not agree. Want to go to college/job training? I am all for that. Want to have your own apartment after college and find out that you can't afford it on your waitressing salary, since you didn't go avail yourself of the college career counseling office when it was suggested to you to do so? Well, that's too bad. Get a roommate or you can move home and recalibrate your income/spending. Some young adults take to managing their own money/lives well and some have more growing pains, despite having the same parents. It's a process. [/quote]
