[quote=Anonymous]You know your kid best. Whatever keeps your kid happy, secure, supported, motivated is a good strategy. For sure, your kids need guidance and some resources to figure out what is next, so imho ultimatums and rules don't work. In some ways they are your adult room mates and in some they are your children. For our DC, we did not charge rent etc or had any expectations of chores. In fact, they have a brand new car and our credit card for their use. They were self-motivated, kept up with job search, kept up with their socializing, built skills, did volunteer work, took care of their health and diet, and pitched in with chores without asking.
