Parents allowance
Do you still give your parents monthly allowance after marriage and kids?
I did not. As my parents told me to keep the money for me and my family as inflation rate so high nowadays alr with the high expenses especially when there's a baby. My mom even initiate to buy baby stuffs regularly for me even I rejected her (she kind of overbuy cos she's super excited to try out new baby stuffs lol) So usually me and my hubby will treat my parents for dinner regularly (as we stay nearby, we will 'jio' them for dinner together).
Read moreI didn’t esp after I stopped working (no kids yet). But during their bdays and cny, I will give a bigger red packet though it definitely doesn’t cover as much as when I worked and gave allowance. And now with a kid coming along soon, I don’t think I will have enough to start giving allowance too. Occasional/random big treats for them makes them happy already.

I still give them allowance but it will be lesser than before I got married and have kids
I give a yearly red packet during CNY which is equivalent to monthly allowance X12mths.
Yes, just my mum. not as much as before marriage and kids but they understand.
