My point about supporting married children was not only about tuition discounts but it also affect donation dollars. Yeshivas rely heavily on donations. If all of your maaser is being used to provide your kid with a late model camry and bugaboo stroller, you will not have much left to provide your alma matter, your children’s alma matter or your grandchildren’s current school with the donations that they need to pay Rabbeim’s salaries. I guess before we attack the current kollel lifestyle we should really attack the general opulent spending amongst frum Jews. The issue of children’s support is that affects even families that can not afford it.
