Scenario

When parents disagree about whether financial help empowers or enables adult children

My daughter wants us to help pay for her master's degree but my husband thinks she should take loans and earn it herself, and we're discovering that we have completely different beliefs about whether money shared between generations represents love or creates dependency. This fight about tuition is really about what parental support means.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Parents must examine whether money given to children expresses care or undermines character development.
