[quote=Anonymous]I think 27 is fine to move out.  I have a 29 year old cousin who lived at home and then after a few years quit his job to use his “saved money” to travel.  He’s home again and jobless.

Does DD have student loans?  Is she saving for grad school or a house? If she has loans I think I would maybe feel differently, but maybe then you ask her to pay rent to live with you at a lower rate so she knows about saving for rent and associated costs.  A close friend lived at home after college for 3 years and his parents made him pay $300 a month in rent and mow the yard (which was nothing even back then) and when he moved out they gave him a check with the amount plus interest that it made in the account.

At some point kids should move out otherwise they may live there forever. I lived with 3 roommates and did just fine.  Teaches you how to budget, live with others, etc.  if there’s an end date and a goal (save grad school, pay off student loans, save for house), fine, but get it in writing.
