Fortunately dd never had to do a volunteer internship, she got paid very well and was given a great job offer starting 1/19, after she finishes up her masters, provided she passes the CPA exams. She doesn’t have much free time, but has learned how to work her butt off. Plus, having 5, we’d be giving a lot of allowances (my parents paid for my undergraduate graduate and graduate degrees, but spending money was on me).I'm pretty much the opposite. I'd rather not have my kids do anything while they go to school full time than go to school - plus their social/extracirrcular/ volunteer life. A full load of credits and the associated studying should be almost 50 hours of work each week - and then the social life on campus which creates networking and resume opportunities that you cannot get if you miss them in college. My son goes part time, and works - that suits his style well, but he is a different kid than a four year university and onto grad school who needs to make connections in college kid. My daughter wants the career where she builds a resume you don't get in college unless you volunteer and make the connections there - unpaid internships and volunteer work already litter her resume - and she is still a high school senior
I don't think its a matter of being mean, its a matter of what you can afford and how you prioritize which experiences in your kids' lives.

I recently played a reading of this on YouTube and I loved it.How about George Clayson's the richest man in babylon.
The Financial Diet has a really good YouTube channel which breaks topics into manageable chunks. You may want to cruise over there and send her some links to relevant videos.The Financial Diet just came out with a book and Broke Millennial also has one. They're both quite good and aimed at that age bracket.
