My parents do not fully support their girls but they “help” until the girl is self suffeciant (finishes college and gets job). When my parents look into girls for their sons they expect the same thing and will say no if the girls parents are not going to help out and the girl does not have a college degree. I have no problem asking for support for your sons but I say you can only demand for your sons what you are giving for your daughters. I have gotten no’s from boys from parents with no money cuz my parents werent offering enough. That I think is a major chutzpah. I really don’t think they were supporting their daughters the amount they were demanding for their son. In your case though if money will call off a shidduch the parents should really discuss that before the guy and girl go out cuz its really shame when 2 ppl like each other and the parents dont let it go thru cuz of moeny issues.
