Regardless of who's buying or under what circumstances, you need to buy a place that makes sense after crunching the numbers and is at a discount to what you feel the true value is. That said, I think this is good thing. For a responsible adult child who has never expected to live off his/her parents, has proven not to be spoiled, and has the right things in life going, things like this help a family build a legacy and wealth. Money not used towards rent can be invested and grown, further securing the future of the adult children.
Now let the judging and trash talking begin...

It was a little hard to find. You had to search "parents".
