[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a mid 20's son too. I think you should tell him "We're going to float you through Labor Day. You can pay us back when you're back on your feet. If we didn't think you could make it on your own, we'd just tell you to come home, but we believe in you. So take this summer to firm up your interviews for your career and try to find a waiter position in the meantime." [/quote] +1. If you can afford it, I'd actually give him longer.[/quote] P.S. I would let him come home if he still wanted to post-this option, because it might indicate that something more was going on (failed love affair, roommate drama, not-just-situational depression), but I'd push the financing option first. Sometimes it's harder to ask for money than to ask to come home; make sure he's not just asking to come home because he's too proud to ask for money.[/quote]
