[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For us older parents. I had my last kid 45.

If my kid gets married say 32 am I really expected at 77 to pay daughters wedding, throw baby showers and all that normal younger parent stuff.

I mean I will be in 80s when my kid has kids [/quote]

At age 32, the [b]adult[/b] child should be paying for their own wedding. Gen-X here, I got married at age 22, paid for 90% of my wedding with money I saved working while going to college (which my parents paid for). I didn't want them to have to pay for the wedding, however, they offered and paid for the food. By 32, I was fully immersed in my own career and family, had built a house from the ground up, has put myself through grad school, and was having a second child. [/quote]

Paid for own college, wedding, house - not that long ago! [/quote]

Me too, and paying for my parents' living expenses right now. An adult has to be a total loser to live on one's parents.[/quote]
