When parents struggle with how much to support adult children in gig work

My adult kids both work multiple gig jobs and live at home because they can't afford rent and I want to help but I also worry that supporting them is enabling a system that underpays workers and prevents them from demanding better. We're all trapped in this economy together but I don't know if helping them survive it is actually helping them.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A family is grappling with whether financial support enables exploitation or provides necessary survival within an structurally unfair economic system.
