I have twins who both started college this year. Originally we told them they both have to work for their spending money.
Well one of my DD has a mild learning disability; it takes her twice as long to read as others and she is part of the college's 'Student With Disabilities" program and can take longer for her tests and get tutoring.
We are now not sure about having her work because we really want her to do well in school, and college is so much harder and they don't offer the type of support she had in high school so it has been a huge adjustment.
So if she doesn't work for her spending money, and I am sure there are others who children also don't do this (my neighbor's daughter is in a very difficult engineering program and she don't want her to work either because her courses are so demanding).....how much spending money do you give to your college students each month?
Thanks
