I am on you for point number 1. In fact, once my children grown up and can stand by themselves independently, I do not wish to get monthly allowances from them.

Heck, I did not ask myself to be born in this world. So long I am filial to my parents, no monetary reward can measure that.

For those who can't save on rainy day, blame no one but themselves. Born poor, not own fault. Die poor, own mistake?

Nope, my beloved parents do not owe me anything . I am blessed they did not uphold the antique traditional mindset into my upbringing.

I just want to make it clear if a parent bring out a child in this world, that is on parent's choice / decision.

The irony of conservative parents, once children sustain themselves and never return the favor (in parent's own term), they will be automatically labelled as ungrateful son/ daughter.

Parent choose to raise a child = parent owe it to them?

It's like telling the police when you bang someone's car, you owe the car owner due to damage. Wah.. gaslighting to the core.

End of the day, if you did not bang, you are not an offender. So how could the car owner perceived it as "I don't owe you either"?

Instead of "owe", why don't emphasize on self responsibility?

Neither do I object nor restrict nor disagree. For those who gave, may good deed always be with you and your next generation to come.

However, to judge someone stinge just because of no monetary support is uncalled for. You don't know behind-the-scene.

Perhaps, they never missed parents' call, weekly catchup, medical appointment, favorite food, new year reunion.
