      As long as you make sure your kids know that you have their back and you’ll support them through recovering from a setback like that, I think they’ll be fine. Paying them back to erase all the pain of the loss might set an unrealistic expectation because at some point, you won’t be there to bail them out anymore. Just don’t add insult to injury by making fun of them or blaming them for their mistakes.
