At what age should a parent stop taking care of a child?

[Sanjeev]

That's true. Once the kids have a job to earn, the parents should stop supporting them with the money.

Yes

 

[King Belieal]

My parents still call me once in a while to come pick foodstuffs from home. But I don't depend on them for my everyday survival. It doesn't make sense.

I think there is no time that the parents would cease taking care of their children in their lifetime.

 

[Ratine]

Most parents are destined to take care of their children even when the children become adults for that matter.

There is no definitive age when children should become fully independent, as it depends on the individual child's maturity level and life circumstances.

 

[Niyi Briggs]

A child that is an early shooter would likely get independent around 20 years of age.

 

[AruneBend]

Parents should always care about their child, like hug them and call them. It is not like they turn 18 and they are not your child anymore.

 

[Pearl]

I feel that it depends on the level of maturity a child attend before a parent can stop taking care of the child.

 

[Fidelia]

A child should be financially responsible at 25. I know the economy is hard. Well to do parents can still support their children but not taking care of them entirely.
