How old will you and spouse be when empty nesters?

If we stop at 3, then 53 and 57. We might have more though.

Keep working. DH will be tenured and will work forever, I know. After another 5-8 years, I will pivot from being a CRNA to move into something more administrative/managerial.

60 and 62 when they go to college. 64 and 66 when they graduate. Oy!

We will be 57 when the kids graduate from college. We enjoy our professions so we don't intend on retiring until 67-70ish.

51 when she left for college, 53 when she moved back home. No clue when I will be an empty nester, but that's OK for now.

55 at best or 60.

We will be 58 and 60 when our youngest is one year out from graduating college. That is when we will feel like true-empty nesters- when they aren't likely to come live at home for periods of time. I imagine they may want to live with us for a year after graduating- it seems to be what most of the kids do around here. We live in a good location where our neighbors graduating students get jobs, live at home and save for a year and then move out. We might both retire but find part time jobs before we are empty nesters- we've done a good job saving and could fully retire but we like being busy.

Do you consider 18 empty nest, or after college? We'll be 65 assuming our son goes to college. Hoping he keeps us young.

Our youngest is only 4, but I don't think I'll care that much if this happens, as long as the children are busy and independent. Which, if they're not, they will not be welcome to return to living at home.
