All parents want what’s best for their kids. But raising two kids of the same age with two different career choices may be a whole new challenge on its own. One mom has recently taken to Mumsnet for advice on whether her mode of financial support for her 17-year-old daughter and 18-year-old son won’t cause resentment.
Turns out, her daughter is now undertaking a full-time apprenticeship course, and since she’s fairly independent, mom is charging her “rent/keep/petrol equivalent to 25% of her take home.” But the same doesn’t go for her son, who decided to accept university offers and start a degree there.
As you can probably guess, mom’s post titled “One at uni, one at work…” raised eyebrows and stirred a heated debate on the platform. Let’s see her whole post in full right below, and be sure to share your thoughts on the whole situation in the comments.
