[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He can also tutor kids as a part time job. Also, he should [b]live with you for free for at least a few years to make up for this terrible job market and any loss in potential earnings[/b]. You all need to have a plan as a family. We are doing the same for our kids. [/quote] Same. UMC family in DC. But I grew up MC/LMC (child of teachers) who valued education, yes, but never had a cent leftover to help us as older teens/young adults. If my kid lives at home while working after college, I'm not going to make him pay "rent" like my parents would have. Instead, I'm going to cut a deal where he [i]invests[/i] all the money he would've blown on a shittily built apt. in Navy Yard. They can get an unpaid internship, which would not have been an option for 21 yr old me, since volunteer jobs don't pay for car insurance or the cellphone. [/quote]
