Count yourself blessed that you have been able to help your child so much already. She will appreciate the life lesson and sense of accomplishment that comes from supporting herself. It is also a great experience to realize that you have to save for those pesky unexpected expenses - like car and house repair, medical bills, etc.

I firmly believe that teaching our children to be self-sufficient is a gift to them.
