[quote=Anonymous]My parents helped pay for some of our 529 and I hear about how they contributed to it all the time along with their own 529. I dont know that either affected them differently but it is about control. It's a gift. I have bigger issues to deal with now that they are older. It's nice that they contributed the money because I do not have the money to pay fully for college right now and it allows my kids to attend without huge financial burdens. I would find a way to buy a house not that close by but allow them to contribute to the 529s. Maybe they can donate all that money to the house to the 529 and then you don't need to worry about college. Living is expensive. Find ways to work around their somewhat manipulative gifts. They want credit and it's their gift. Play to your strengths.[/quote]
