Hi everyone can I have some feedback please? My daughter who is 18 is in the last year of her A levels , she boards at an independent A/s college. Her plan for this year in readiness for uni next year is to budget for herself, this includes getting an allowance for her breakfast lunch and tea any snacks etc. in this she has to get EVERYTHING from bread and milk to butter etc.... She has rung me and they have just finalised her allowance which is £15 per week. This means £1 per meal if she eats 3 meals a day. Is it me or does this sound a little mean? We have looked at tesco website ( the only place near enough for her to shop) and we can not get a balanced diet inc fruit and veg on this amount. Her place is funded through welsh Assembley so should I be insisting on more or does anyone have any ideas on how she can feed herself for this tiny amount? Thanks for any input.... X
