@_itsornella: Many adult children are finding themselves in this predicament. They are expected to help fund their parent's retirement while also trying to build their own financial foundation. If this is you, I encourage you to follow a few steps: 1. Decide on a monthly amount that feels sustainable 2. Prepare for difficult conversations about expectations and boundaries 3. Coordinate with siblings to create a shared contribution pool Clear limits and open communication make long-term support more sustainable for everyone. #FamilyFinance #Boundaries #adulting
I can relate to this. I got a multifamily rental and allows my parents to stay in one unit while the others are rented and I give them a monthly check off of the net rental income.

Idk stuff like this is triggering for me because in my case, I had to contribute to the household very early. It feels like a slap in the face to ask your children to help when you had ample time to save for your future. That cripples your child and their family because you’re another body they have to take care of. I would never ask my child to do this. Exactly why I’m getting myself together so that her future is as soft as possible.

Absolutely not. Not a single cent would be seen from me. They had 60 years to get it together.

As a Haitian immigrant/daughter, my mother has a monthly allowance and she was given a credit card. As long as it's not causing me financial instability, I will continue to do so.
