Secrets of a Millionaire Teacher by Barbara Whelehan

A new poll by the Pew Research Center reveals that the age at which children should be financially independent, according to parents, has crept up over the past decade. In 1993, 80 percent of parents said children should be independent by age 22. But in the new poll, only 67 percent of parents agreed with that assessment.

Parents of young adults were even more lenient, with just 46 percent going along with the 22-year milestone. But 51 percent said they don’t need to be independent until 25 or older.
