What do you think about financially cutting off a child for his/her benefit?

Asked by Paradox1 (1179points) October 30th, 2011 from iPhone

My question has to do with financially cutting off or phasing off financial assistance for a grown child for his/her benefit, ie. learning self-reliance and lighting a fire under their asses. I am not asking about whether you agree or not with supporting grown children financially or what you feel is best for the parents. Indirectly I suppose I am asking what is best for the parents but only so far as saying what is best for the child is also best for the parents.

What do you think is the best, to cut them off partly, fully, or continue supporting their financial shortfall that their current salary just cant cover?
