[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Following! Ours are 21 and 23. Want tips too.[/quote] I read so many threads on DCUM where adult children complain about the behavior of their terrible parents. It's so sad to read these. I can't imagine behaving the way these parents do, unless they are in decline do to health issues which affect their mental state and behavior. But I wonder if these parents simply never grew up. [/quote] Sometimes it’s very clear the adult children never grew up, as evidenced by the demand above that their parents continue to be “givers” even into the kids’ thirties (see pp). Some of DCUM’s posters like their relationships to have drama. But yes. Don’t challenge your kids’ choices unless they’re actively dangerous. Don’t nag. Don’t expect anybody with small children to go the extra mile for you (but don’t be a doormat either, because it’s ok to ask them to strip their bed and wash up after the dinner you shopped for and cooked).
