Chalilavchas: would it help for you to consult a rav about how to handle the money? Giving everything without restraint does not seem like a good solution, although I’ve heard this advice many times . Give love, yes, but unlimited money?? No child, OTD or not, has ever been helped to grow into a responsible and caring adult by being given all the money they desire, IMHO. Better to give wisely and thoughtfully. There are ways a full time student can earn money–do they get a stipend in school? If not they can take on part time work or get student loans. This is not because the parent’s can’t afford it, but just to put a cap on the incessant demand for money, which is not healthy.
