Our son (in his 40’s, married with school age children) has lost his well-paid job. He’s has taken it very badly and it will take some time to get a new job at his level, but they have a huge mortgage, etc. We’re retired and are happy to offer some help, but it could never be enough to cover his mortgage, etc. How far should we go in helping him and his family, at what point should we stop? If you were in his position how much help would you expect from your parents?
