[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not sure where we went wrong as parents. We have two kids: 26 and 28. Both are college grads and one even has a masters degree. Neither has a full time job that has anything to do with their degrees. Both live outside the home but we support them paying for rent and health insurance. Yes we feel badly about it but we can afford it. At what point does it stop though? [/quote] As parents, we all screw up at some point. Just correct course when you realize something isn't working. I still remember graduating from college and my parents told me they would pay two months rent, the following month I would get 1/2 the rent paid, and the following month I would get 1/4 paid, then no more. It made me feel better having time to get the wheels rolling, but at the same time I knew I had to hustle because I didn't have long. In hindsight, it was a nice transition to have the training wheels with an understanding of when they would come off.[/quote]
