Parnassah, while being in Hashem’s hands, is still our achrayus to earn. Hashem decides how much we will earn, but like buying a Lotto ticket, ya gotta be in it to win it. The money will not fall from the sky, neither will it grow on a burning bush in the backyard. So tell your boys to go learn part of the day and get educated part of the day so they won’t have to depend on mommy and daddy for money. Remind them that when they B”EH have sons of their own who are probably learning, that THEY will likely not be able to support them if they were not educated in a field that brings in enough parnassah. That is going to be the unpleasant eye-opener of many kids of the next generation, I fear.
