[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 121436, member: 179"] Great advice given. I would NOT let that money be available. Kids at this age seem to feel entitled. It's nice that you would give him a start in life, but he has to buck up and do the rest after the fact. If you give him that money, I can almost guarantee it will be gone quickly. Set your limits. Give him enough to survive for a month or two, then hold the rest until you see that he is actually moving in the right direction. It's a hard thing to do, but it might help him in the end. Hard work rarely goes unnoticed. Just my 2 cents. Abbey [/QUOTE]
