College Student Gets $3,000 Monthly Allowance From Dad, Freaks Out When He Wants To Cut Her Off For Dropping Out

It’s a classic parenting dilemma: how much freedom should you give, and where do you draw the line?

This dad has been generous with his 19-year-old daughter, providing a $3K monthly allowance and even a new car to help her adjust to college life.

But things have taken a turn. With reports of missed classes and lavish trips, he’s getting worried she might not be on the path he had in mind.

Now, she’s talking about dropping out to travel Europe, and he’s not having it — threatening to cut off her funds and take back the car if she goes through with it.

She insists it’s her life to live, and he feels like he shouldn’t be financially supporting a gap year he doesn’t agree with.

So who’s in the right here?

The father took to the AITA thread on Reddit for some answers.
