[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 727781, member: 1550"] I get a rental, again if you have the means. A rental is YOUR property. What I find really off the rails for parents to do is to buy a house...houses are not cheap...and putting it in the grown child's name, even if they don't get into trouble. To me it is the equivalent of doing a child's homework for him to make his life easy and to get him into a good school, with no work needed on his part. How can good character develop if we do it for them? Or their own self esteem and pride in their accomplishments? Even those who have a lot of money can decide to teach their adult children the satisfaction of doing it themselves. in my opinion buying huge toys for any grown kid is a poor parenting decision. Again....jmo. I realize we all think differently. [/QUOTE]
