[quote=Anonymous]Do not make this about getting a job. Let him figure the job thing out on his own. But you can do things to encourage him to leave your house without actually saying “time to leave”. Say it’s time for him to start paying market rate for rent, utilities, etc. Ramp up over the next 3-6 months, until you get to an amount he would be paying if he wasn’t at home. This will hopefully make him see he needs to move forward towards a career. But if not, it will at least make him decide whether living with his parents vs living with his peers for the same amount of money is worth it. (PS-save all the money he gives you and give it back to him when he needs a down payment for a house) [/quote]
