Parents whose children are self-financed, online college students are dissolved: they are afraid to do the work offered

The cost of living for college students has always been a difficult issue for parents and students to agree on. Some parents are reluctant to give more, while students strive for more.

Recently, a father presented a list of requests for reimbursement of living expenses for his college-age children, a list that may seem mundane, but on the whole it seems too extravagant.

First of all, the biggest expense is the cost of food, which is 6 yuan for breakfast and 15 yuan for lunch and dinner every day, for a total of 1080 yuan per month. In addition, there is a monthly fee of 120 yuan for milk tea, 400 yuan for fruit snacks, 300 yuan per month for entertainment, and 90 yuan per month for bottled water. The cost of clothing, makeup, hair, and nails is also included, totaling a staggering $3080.

However, there are also some college students who question this list. For example, $6 a day for breakfast may seem too high, especially for students who don't read early. Also, since you already have money for socializing, why do you have to eat a meal that is not unpalatable in the school cafeteria? A $15 bucket of bottled water doesn't seem reasonable either, while expenses like clothing, makeup, hair, and nails could be a little more economical.

Some students even re-made the list, crossing out all the items such as milk tea, fruit snacks, clothes, cosmetics, social gatherings, hair and nails, tuition fees, and school supplies, leaving only enough money to cover average living expenses and some contingency expenses.

Parents warn that itemized filings could lead to false declarations. Some students suggested that only basic expenses such as fruits and snacks should be accounted for, and other items could be reimbursed as needed or declared separately. Generally speaking, the calculation of living expenses should be based on family and personal circumstances, parents can refer to the consumption level of nearby residents, or they can listen to the opinions of students to arrive at a more reasonable level of living expenses.
