[quote=Anonymous]I have an adult child living on his own. He is quite independent. He's making over $100K now and seems to be well liked at his place of employment. He shares an apartment with two other young men in DC.

He in no way is replicating our current life style, and I am 100% fine with that. He does travel, but on a budget. Both my husband and I had no generational wealth and he made all our money on his own. True, my DS has no college debt, and we still pay for his phone, youtube tv subscription, and tolls because those subscriptions are part of our family subscription. We don't supplement his rent or anything like that. He needs to figure out budgeting and go back to graduate school if he wants to excel, and that's what he is doing.

That said, I am very aware of other parents supplementing their kids' rent because there is no way some of these kids could never afford their apartments with no roommates in some of the best sections of DC. My son has a couple of friends like this, but he doesn't expect that from us thankfully.
