Just because you have wealthy parents doesn’t mean that you have access to that money. To me it would make more sense to only take into account the amount of money they are putting towards your education.
In: Other
Others have explained already so I want to add something: In germany your parents are legally required to pay for your first full education. Meaning that, unless you dont already have a for example masters degree, they have to support you during your time at university. If they dont do it eventhough they could, you can sue them. The “Bafög-Amt” (office that handles financial support from the government during education) calculates how much your parents should be able to give you and gives you the missing money to get you to a livable amount each month. Thats how you know how much your parents should give you.
