Stephen, with an attitude like yours, please please run in the next parliamentary election. Australia is desperately needing more people to think the way you do.

Great article. Breeding an 'entitlement' generation doesn't help them build resilience.

To give your kids too much early on is to deny them the opportunity to achieve financial goals for themselves. They will never know the satisfaction from buying a property they can afford and making the sacrifices needed to pay it off How satisfying is it to do that?

Why short change them and feather-bed them? They'll get the money later in life So let them have a crack first and learn the value of earning/spending/saving.

My wife and I have raised a financially fit daughter who has purchased her first property a 2-bed, 2-bath unit at Yeronga at 22!

She was taught from a very young age to help out where she could. She started work at K-Mart at 13years and 10mths.

It is our job to look after US financially so she will never have to worry about her parents retiring and struggling to make ends meet.

It is HER job to do that for herself. We have been generous parents, sending her on an overseas trip to the USA, bought her a car, bought her a fridge for her new place, but that is not buying her a house or even going guarantor!

Wake up parents, give your kids the satisfaction of knowing the pride in achieving something for themselves and do yourself a favour by knowing you are in the best position to achieve a financially independent retirement.

Well said Stephen.

Give your kids an education and a leg up.

Not handouts from the bank of Mum & Dad.

Before they leave the nest...Teach them to fly.

They'll be fine.

Too many brats strutting around with a sense of entitlement and no motivation to work for their wealth.
