[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents stepping in like this is exacerbating the mental health crisis our teens and young adults are facing. They are learning they have no competence or skills to handle problems themselves.[/quote] +1 Nailed it. [/quote] You aren’t done raising kids when they get their HS diploma. My kid is a sophomore. This year I taught him how to file taxes. He’s staying at college to research and looking for housing. I’m a lawyer and he’s asking me to review leases before he signs. He’s also having us look at his draft budget. Because no, he d didn’t magically get the competence or skills to deal with taxes or leases when he turned 18. [/quote] And those leases are full of ways to take advantage of students. So glad you do that. [/quote]
