[quote=Anonymous][quote]All I can think of is that they’re not actually financially independent or are expecting a big windfall[/quote] I think this is the case in some families. Grown adults need to be ok with the risk of making Mommy & Daddy mad. It's how adults have a relationship with other adults. No one is too pushy or obnoxious or always gets their way, otherwise the other person would just walk away. In a family that may be temporary but bad behavior is judged and is called out. IF the price to pay for calling out bad behavior is literally money, an inheritance, monetary support or favors, of course the adult child has an interest in not rocking the boat. [/quote]
