PS dont understand why you are borrowing money for an adult child - hope you have committment for repayment

My "adult child" is just barely 21. She got stuck with dealing with all of the stuff with her father's death because the rest of his family couldn't or wouldn't deal. Getting the probate stuff sorted should give her some funds to pay for part of, if not all, of her graduate school. She's managed to get her undergrad without incurring any debt, so that could be a huge bonus for her. Normally, she'd talk to her paternal grandmother about borrowing the money, but that g-ma isn't dealing well with her son's death even almost 2 years later. So, my parents are in a position to easily loan the money, but kiddo feels uncomfortable approaching them for it since it's regarding my Ex's estate. She already deals with anxiety issues on top of working full time and going to school full time, so I don't mind stepping in if there's something I can help with to keep her from getting in a full blown anxiety episode. We already know there's enough in the estate once probate is closed to repay the loan, so the repayment isn't the issue. And kiddo went in person with me to actually borrow the money, I just had to have the initial conversation with my parents and my Dad has some odd ideas about attorneys.
