[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not normal to help your parents financially, in America.[/quote] Most parents also stop supporting after high school and even in high school, kids are supposed to work part time and summers for pocket money or do chores at home. Not many kids live at home after 18. Not many parents pay for college and at best for state college with 529, most students have heavy debt. Most young people pay for their own weddings. [/quote] Not in my social circle. My daughter is a third year in college and although she has had a summer job each summer since 16, we pay for college, and plan to pay for grad school and her wedding (when she has one). We buy her groceries at college, pay for her phone, bought her a new car and pay for her insurance. We are able to and she's a good kid (with a good head on her shoulders) so why should she pay for these things? And yes, she can live at home as long as she likes. [/quote]
