| | 📝 Survey Responses: When Should You Wean Your Adult Child Off of Financial Support? And How Much Money Should You Give Them, If Any? | butler: “I would tie it to my kids graduating college and getting their first full-time job. At that point I will help them budget and plan for retirement but no longer offer any financial support.” | ratbert2k: “Sorry Team Clark. This is a stupid question. Every kid is different. Every family is different. What works well for you won’t work well for me. What works for one of my kids won’t work for another.” | G_Parker: “Certainly after college graduation! For minor things (eg AAA membership), sure. But major? The average amount people are giving their kids is over $700 a month?!! That is crazy.
