The friend’s (undergrad) daughter did not seek parental permission before applying BTO. I mean if I were the parent, and I said no, would my (abv 21yo) daughter still listen to me then?
If I said no, that means I won’t give them a single cent to help with their downpayment, then where the young couple find the $$? From the boy’s parents??? Lol. -

@ MKS Agree we shld not meddle how they shld live or establish their family. Just stay away & best live our own retirement & go over only when invited or asked us for help. Then asks specifically how they like to be helped. Not easy when in action.
Neice married to Aussie doc & both work at the hospital so SIL share grandparenting roles with husband’s parents. Wonder how the other side actually feels coz they’ll hv Aussie grandparenting style whilst SIL will be Asian/Chinese style. In our recent visit, SIL brot loads of Chinese Herbs for her to tonify till she delivers her 2nd boy. I know she hv straight instructions for SIL tt she only allows her 1st child play with physical toys & not watch TV & SIL had to control herself fr YouTube or TV Programmes. They try to respect & accommodate daughter’s style of parenting & think its good they rotate with other in-laws when they travel back to SG to visit nephew, so conflicts reduced. So, I must rmbr to find our own life & activities & go on vacation or journey away fr home do don’t be too prying or sticky to our grown up kids’ lives.
