[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I really appreciate all the varied responses. They are assuring me that he just needs to tighter things up. He did do a summer job but because of the pandemic and because he also had an unpaid internship, it was sporadic and he didn’t make much. He did DoorDash driving and they make a pittance for several hours work He went in the evenings for about 3-4 hours a day and would make about $45 a week if that. In short he didn’t make much over the past summer and living in DC that was soon soaked up on Ubers when he went out. I haven’t pushed him to get a job because of COVID but next summer will be different hopefully. I didn’t attend college in the US so the on campus job idea never occurred to me. I will encourage him to get one. He does have a bank account but his spending leeches into the credit card every month. I think we are giving him more than enough/too much and my instincts were right about him needing to curb his expense. [/quote]
