Well, this Washington Post article:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2019/03/01/when-life-gives-you-lemon/
was clearly meant to provoke discussion on when to "save the children" from a bad experience. Scenario: 20 year old son is wild to buy a doubtful car from a dubious character off the street. Mom is trying to save him from losing the money.
I'm a non-parent so I really am not sure what I'd do in the situation. There were circumstances both for and against. I'd *think* I'd fall back on the consideration that son is still apparently a dependent, but is that relevant?
I'm sure many parents have been in this situation.
