Thank you for your consultation. My son works hard on his own cooking and sports while living alone at university. While growing up well, I'm sorry for the mother's trouble, who is relied upon and swayed by unexpected trouble.
It's a case where people lose their keys late at night and rely on them, but there are aspects where it can't be helped if there is no other recourse and only once. However, if it continues frequently, it is also important to encourage yourself to regulate yourself, and sometimes coldly throw it away, saying “solve it yourself.”
The same goes for “sudden carelessness of money.” Living alone as a student is expensive, and when you work hard at a part-time job and neglect essential schoolwork, it's over the horse. However, if you give money as you are told, it will only advance in the direction of developing loose habits. Pre-employment students generally have poor perceptions of the importance of money. When providing temporary assistance, it is necessary to take resolute measures, such as “clarifying the purpose,” “keeping the amount to a minimum,” and “refusing when the interval is short.”
In Buddhism, there is a teaching called “middle way (chudo).” It's a word that indicates how to avoid extremes and be in harmony with everything. The relationship between parents and children is the same, and “too pampering” and “being too strict” do not produce good results.
As far as I've heard the story, it seems that the mother is slightly biased towards “sweetness.” It is said that raising the child has taken a break, but now it is the final stage leading him to “complete independence.” Please pull back just a little bit and explore the sense of distance on the “middle road” that makes him overcome difficulties with his own strength.
