“Some of issues parents expected to confront when their child was in their early twenties. have been pushed later.

I think it's safe to say that many parents expected to still be providing some financial assistance to their child when their child was in their early twenties. Don't think that many parents expected to be doing it when their child was 30, and I think that from the young person's point of view they probably expect to be getting some help from their parents while they were still in college and right out of college, but I'm sure that they didn't expect that to be having to go to their mother and father and ask for financial help on the over 30 or 32, and that is going on today. And so I think the shifting timetable of the transition to adulthood has really made this an important topic and parents are perplexed”
