[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d tell him I’d give him a pass for saying this Thanksgiving of freshman year but that would be the last time-after that I’d expect him to show more maturity and perspective about his “bad luck.” [/quote] This is good advice. I don't think this situation is specific to college tuition - it will come up throughout life. I think the function of the complaints is sometimes to explore whether parents will feel bad and cough up a little more money. Acknowledging that he wishes he had more money and then setting a boundary on complaints and letting him know that he's welcome to look for solutions on his own is reasonable.[/quote]
