[quote=Anonymous]We never gave our kids allowances so they always worked from an early age to have spending money. When they graduated they may have lived with us briefly but moved out as soon as they got jobs which didn’t take long because they didn’t want to live at home in the suburbs. They all ended up sharing places with roommates and we never subsidized their rent. If you want to avoid failure to launch kids, you need to deal with it when they are teenagers teaching the importance of working hard including academically. If you give them big allowances in HS and college it makes it hard to get them off the payroll. [/quote]
