In the contemporary landscape, financial dynamics between generations have shifted. Parents, once recipients of modest salaries, now witness their children struggling to match their standards. This prompts parents to provide extensive financial and emotional support, spanning from education to daily expenses. However, this support isn’t always reciprocated, leading to strained relationships and miscommunication. Many financial disagreements stem from a lack of open dialogue within families regarding income, expenditure, and expectations. Establishing clear boundaries and fostering transparent conversations about money can mitigate misunderstandings and prevent assumptions. Parents should offer support to their children while instilling a sense of responsibility and accountability.
