I used "adult children" mainly to avoid the idea that at 21 yrs they were excluded from the parent's plan
No worries. I was just pointing out the contradiction in the terms. I find it interesting that we strive as parents to get our children to grow up and go forward to be on their own but often continue to have to support them long after any of our parents would have ever considered supporting us in the same manner. The new law allows this and in many cases this will be helpful to struggling young adults as they enter the work world. But how long should it take? It would be under very rare conditions that I would consider supporting my adult children to the age of 26. Even then I would limit such support.
