Do anything for your kids != do everything for your kids. I get where you are coming from but putting kids in a house they possibly can't afford can be a bigger issue later down the road.
But the housing market is so messed up right now that even "starter homes" are completely unaffordable to people that doesn't make ridiculous amounts of money, and that's a trend for everywhere in the States even in previously low cost of living areas.
In other words, the "house that normal people can afford" is going extinct, and that is actual messed up part, not parents helping their kids survive a messed up housing market.
It will just create an ever greater divide between the haves and have nots
