[quote=Anonymous]This must be how kids with college degrees and no student debt end up back at home after college. You are not helping him by sending him money every time he calls! OP, he is not struggling. He is finally learning a lesson you should have taught him years ago. My family was fairly wealthy and I had to pay for 'extras' on my own as soon as I was in HS. If I wanted to go to the movies with friends, buy CDs, cool jeans, a prom dress etc I had to pick up babysitting jobs, do yard work, and I always had a summer job. I also worked part time in college and ate plenty of ramen when I was broke. He has room, board, books, a computer and a little extra cash for shampoo and pizza. You are being more than generous. Will he be home over winter break? If he wants a new iPhone, he can work a seasonal job for a couple weeks, plow drive ways, babysit or whatever else he can think of to earn money himself. And he can do the same every break from here on out. [/quote]
