Derech Hamelech, if you’re talking about slipping the occasional 20, treating kids to a plane ticket home, etc. no tuition committee would have any issues. But the type of long-term serious support that is now in vogue sometimes DOES come at the expense of the tuition of children living at home, being able to help elderly parents, etc. If it is truly within their means, beautiful, but people have to really, really evaluate this.
