| 1143025 | 2010-10-10 05:57:00 | OMG have I become an agony aunt? LL :eek: LOL. And I've become both a mother-in-law and a granny.:eek: So have you got your child/s car insured under your name? No. I gave him the car. Wasn't worth a lot. I bought another. That's it. Don't pay for the thing for him, don't wipe his bum either. |

I'm sure if there were no grandchildren involved my parents wouldn't be so helpful. I do pity the daughter inlaw problem, having to bite your tongue. |

| 1143028 | 2010-10-10 06:42:00 | So have you got your child/s car insured under your name? Step son is 16 and on our insurance until he gets his full around Feb next year then he will be on his own insurance. The sooner he starts his no claims the better for him |

| 1143030 | 2010-10-10 07:06:00 | Step son is 16 and on our insurance until he gets his full around Feb next year then he will be on his own insurance. The sooner he starts his no claims the better for him I was always under the impression, that it was ok to have a child as a named driver, but was not ok to have a childs car insured under your name. So if said person was the main driver of a car then the insurance needed to be under that name |

| 1143032 | 2010-10-10 10:44:00 | Unfortunately taking the bus is approx $6 cheaper than taking the car to uni for me. I absolutely hate taking the bus here in Auckland but $6 does add up every single day to $30 a week!!! A true student! That's a box of beer right there. |

| 1143033 | 2010-10-10 21:27:00 | If you have children, your are morally obliged to do the following: House and feed them until they achieve the age where it is no longer necessary to compulsary to attend a place of education - provision of the basics beyond this age ,should be: (a) if still in education should be on the basis of academic performance and commitment; (b) if the offspring is working on the basis of making a fair financial commitment to the household budget. The sooner children learn there is no such thing as a free meal the better. From experience, under no circumstances allow them to become financially dependent on their parents when they are earning enough to pay their own way in the world, unless you are so wealthy that the cost and consequences don't matter, or unless you are actively seeking an impoverished retirement. |
