Were there many children in your family? Do you think that children are different today from the time when you were child? Or from 50 years ago? 100 years ago? What is the most important thing that we need to teach children?

They can if they want to, but I think I would be a bit ashamed to live of my parents now that I got my own job :-)

In this picture is an imagine with my granddaughte - In this picture is an imagine with my granddaughter.Maybe when she will grew up,we all will trying to help and support her If she would want to study. She is the only granddaughter in our family and we all love her very much.
I believe that depends of the child.If the kid want to do high shool or something like this,he must to be support and take care of him,but If he doesn't like school he must to learn to work and do something for his money. Have a nice day!

Yes, they need more finance that ever. If my and my wife's parents had not helped us buy a house we would still be in rented accommadation. The deposit needed for a house purchase in the UK is huge. Even if the young have good jobs they still need help with an injection of cash now and again. If you really feel mean, you can ask for the money to be paid back as a loan rather than a gift.
