As parents, it’s normal to feel protective towards your kids and help them out whenever they are in trouble, no matter their age. But what happens when the help turns into constant expectations?

I see so many letters written to you about parents having financial issues with their adult children. I have a similar story to share, though mine may come with a twist.So, my wife and I worked hard in life to retire early with comfortable savings. Like we are not rolling in money, but what we have gives us a good life. Not just that, we have no debt, own our house and cars, and even put our kids, a son and a daughter, through college. All in all, we have no overhead, and neither do the kids.
