[quote=Anonymous]I would separate the kids' needing to appreciate the value of money, and respect for parents. You don't want to send the message that they should be nice to you because you give them money. It's a really unhealthy way to value any relationship. i would, however, talk to them about how they plan to support themselves financially once they are don't with college, have a frank discussion about budgeting, and the importance of a work ethic. Then tell them they need to find a job for 10 hours a week, as well as a summer job. They need to be able to cover their own entertainment expenses, at the very least. Then tell them what you will play for (health insurance, for ex), and what you think is reasonable for them to pay for.[/quote]
