Although I am a couple of years away from paying for weddings, I was having this discussion with my wife...how much to help the kids financially? We were planning on paying for college, grad school, weddings ( I have girls) and then maybe helping them with a house downpayment. All sounds very parent like, although I never had such assistance. My parents payed for undergrad and everything else was on me, although my wife's father paid for our wedding.
Do we rob our children of the sense of personal accomplishment by over doing the financial assistance? Or is it our " job" to help them as much as possible?
What about grandchildren if and when they arrive?
What are your thoughts?
