Most adult children are trying to save money and get student loans under control. The adjacent graph lists parents\u2019 various reasons for continuing support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FIRST: YOUR FINANCIAL WELL-BEING<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While there are times when help is necessary, parents need to think of their financial health and overall well-being first. If you have an adult child who is still under your financial wing, you need to establish boundaries for your assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SET EXIT GOALS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The best plan is to establish financial goals for when the child will become financially self sufficient up front. Or, if you\u2019re already helping, the time is now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Assistance might be provided until they save enough for housing, they can afford their student loan or car payments, their divorce settlement is worked out, or a similar financial milestone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a child with a health issue or addiction, consider talking with your legal advisor about a special needs trust, with funds going directly to the child\u2019s treatment and recovery. And there\u2019s nothing wrong with asking kids to contribute an affordable amount for their stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><sub>*Survey by Qualtrics for Credit Karma, November 2023<\/sub><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a 2023 Credit Karma survey, nearly a third of parents with children over 18 reported currently providing them with financial support. 64% of those parents said they provide support by allowing their kids to live at home, and another 49% pay monthly bills for them.* Both sides have good reasons.
