[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our son is just back from Peace Corps service and now talking about graduate school but he has never worked at a real full time job for more than a couple months, paid his own cell phone bill or made a car payment (we are providing a used car). We're torn about what to say to him but we feel like he needs to experience real adult life before embarking on another expensive educational pursuit that may or may not lead to a good job. This seems to be a pattern among many of our friends young adult kids who aren't launching until their 30s, if then. Any advice? [/quote] Hopefully you already raised him to understand that adulthood starts at 18. You are his parents, not his piggy bank. What's this BS about launching in your 30s.[/quote]
