Supporting My Children Once They're Grown

This is a subject I have been giving a lot of thought on lately. When does a parent's financial obligation to their child/children end? At 18, any legal financial obligation ends, but isn't there a moral obligation that still exists? For some parents, no. For my husband and I, yes! A  parent's obligation to their child does not end when they turn 18, when they graduate college, or even when they get married and have children of their own. A parent's obligation to their child does not end until the day they die! Being a parent is a lifelong role.

SENDING KIDS BACK TO SCHOOL DURING COVID-19: UPDATE

Initially, my children's school district was offering two options for students returning to school. Option 1: Fully Remote. Option 2: Fully In-Person. Then, at the very last minute, they decided to have *all* students go fully remote. I was hoping for a hybrid (2-day-a-week) model, but was happy that at least all students would be "in the same boat" with remote learning.
