[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I thought 53 and 52! But then DC had a nervous breakdown and had to leave her away-from-home college to live at home and commute to a school that is close to home. She’s stable now and has never given us trouble, is a good student, etc. so it’s all good but I have no idea if she’ll stay with us through college or what. We would be delighted if she wanted to live on campus at this new school and would happily pay for a dorm/apartment even tho it’s only 25-30 minutes away but that’s up to her. For now she’s in a good place and if living at home is what it takes to keep her there, I’m fine with it. [/quote]

This happened to my cousin who is in her early 30s now. She moved back home from across the country at 26 after, and was home until 30. She was autonomous and working though but took a while to get herself worked out so that she was living and not just functioning- basically sleeping when she wasn't at work (9-5 office job) meanwhile her 2 younger sisters had launched but honestly I think her parents were relieved to have her living in their basement apt. for her recovery. (She has 2 other comorbid conditions that she takes meds for and is doing great) [/quote]
