It didn't have to be until now to express my opinion in general. Thematically, it still fits.
But even then, I cannot see anything immoral about supporting one's own children as much as one wants and can. Suppose the parents even finance the maximum allowance of 400k. Of that, 19% flows directly to the state as VAT. The children can build a house and thus also provide for their old age. The additional living space relieves the rental market and thus helps other tenants. The money flows into the economy instead of rotting in the bank until the inheritance event occurs. Even if a small proportion of these families becomes in need of care 15 years later, which then has to be supported by the state, overall that could still be the better alternative...But that is again a completely different situation, which was not the subject of the previous discussion.
Sorry, then I misunderstood your post. I thought you wanted to refer to the current discussion. Hopefully, everyone here agrees that it is not right to push your parents into old-age poverty in order to then live a carefree life in their house.It doesn't have to have been so far, to express my opinion in general. Thematically, it still fits.
For some, the educational goal is that the children become independent and successful quickly. For others, the educational goal is that people support each other with all means as the smallest form of a community of solidarity. Some see themselves as successful parents when the children are financially independent early on through their own efforts and have "made something of themselves" and have found decent and well-paid jobs. And not some stupid junk like nurse or educator or artist. So that one can fulfill dreams. Others see themselves as lifelong companions, and they are proud to be doing so well themselves that they can afford to help their children. And also let the children become professionally what fulfills them, even if it does not make them rich. Both are absolutely equal values that stem from their respective biographies, there really is no need to argue about that.
You can no longer get by with "only" €2,000 net at home. Unless you only worked day shifts without weekends...
You are such a real charmer… I know some nursing specialists and all of them are physically or mentally exhausted after about 20 years on the job, without bringing home the salaries of system admins, lawyers, mechatronics technicians, engineers, insurance agents, or electricians.I notice that you have no idea about the salaries of a nursing specialist. So better leave it. I have been working in a hospital for 10 years and especially when it comes to nursing, a lot has changed and rightly so. You don’t come home with “only” €2,000 net anymore. Unless you have only worked day shifts without weekends...
