[quote=Anonymous][quote]young adult or kids, are "guests" in their one parent's home while the step parent continues to see them as a burden[/quote] Kind of but more similar than not, to any young adult coming home -- because they are an adult. Once in college, visits home meant: young adult does their own grocery shopping and cooks for themselves. Give me receipts and I'll reimburse for your groceries within reason. Yes we have some family meals but that's not to be assumed. Plenty of happy times and plenty of togetherness, but that does not change that we are all adults living together, for this period of time. Approach as housemates, and when something is bugging you or someone isn't handling enough of their own responsibilities, you tell them this has to change.[/quote]
