[quote=Anonymous]Don’t be controlling. Don’t helicopter. Don’t wait on them hand and foot. Encourage them to have a social life. Don’t raise a hermit. It’s not normal for older teens/young adults to prefer living at home. It’s normal to want independence. Having said that, it makes good financial sense to do a stint at home to pay off student loans or sock away money for a down payment, etc. I worked throughout college and grad school, but I did a yearlong stint at my parents’ house to save money to buy my first home. Game changer. [/quote]
