[quote=Anonymous]I’m so glad I was able to move back into my parents’ house after college because I was depressed and confused about what to do. It took me six months to find a big girl job and move in with roommates. I really needed that time to get myself together, and I know my parents were worried and frustrated. OTOH I know someone who lived with his retired dad and failed so many classes he just sat around playing video games. He finally graduated with a 2 year degree 8 years later, and he can barely afford his rent now. Clearly he would have benefited from being shoved out of the nest. There’s a huge difference between supporting and enabling, and that is something you will all need to work out together. Set some clear boundaries and expectations.[/quote]
