The Corporation: Kids plundering parents' savings

Once it was just the magic fridge that children raided, only for it to be refilled by their parents.

Now a survey claims adult youngsters are plundering their parents' savings at an increasing rate.

Some 55% of parents polled had given an average of £12,610 to their children or grandchildren, according to the survey by Scottish Widows


Oh to have a wealthy parent... My parents ask ME for money...!!!

What does the statistic shown in the sumarry text mean?!

"Some 55% of parents polled had given an average of £12,610 to their children or grandchildren"

- Is that the average of the highest paying 55%? The 55% that reported what they gave? Am I missing something obvious or is it simply a press-statistic?
