No. If you give your kid money, this doesn't make this money a write-off on the parent's tax return. == == Basically, everything you give your child..food, clothes, allowance, etc is a gift...but like most all life expenses, it isn't deductible!
What you may be thinking of is the commonly mentioned ability to gift up to 10K a year to your children without a gift tax (not an income tax) consequence. However, if done regularly, especially to several children, over the course of years, it has the effect of reducing your likely total estate at death, which may decrease it below inheritence and other taxes/fees it would be subject to, hence saving taxes. It is part of estate planning. Which, as they have been increasing the estate tax exemption, is used less and less. Otherwise, a gift is never a deduction...and it may actually be taxable, under that gift tax, on the one giving it!
Now to make things more complex....what you consider a gift may not be one according to the regulations. If they gift is given for many things... a common one being the child provided care to the parent in lieu of having to get a outside help....that is income to the child...(but may qualify as a deduction for the parent). I guess the key thing being...a gift has no strings attached.
