[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 2 mid 20's boys.  Both graduated from college and beyond and live out of the house. I think work ethic needs to start YOUNG.  My kids worked a summer job from around age 15 and always worked summers while in college.  My DH and I paid for college, but all extras were on them. I was a SAHM so we never outsourced much. Cue: Your dad is traveling this week so you need to mow the lawn and they always had indoor cleaning chores. I am baffled when parents don't expect their kids to work a summer job or have chores in the house.

OP: Regarding the kids you speak about, who is bankrolling their lifestyle?  Is Dad in the picture?  [/quote]

Really now? Mid 20s are men not boys. Stop infantilizing your sons. [/quote]

DP.  My boys will always be my boys. So will my girls.[/quote]

No matter what you say, they are men and women unless your “girls” are under 18. 
I have two girls 7 and 1. THEY ARE GIRLS. and one day they will be women. [/quote]

It’s fine if you are WASPY and not close to your family but some people are close. No reason to put it down.[/quote]

We are actually very close, but we also know the difference between a baby, toddler, young child, tween, teen, and adult. As well as female/male child.

So what if I say "my boys are coming over for Thanksgiving" and you say "my men are coming over for Thanksgiving"... It's not better, your expression sounds weird to me, mine sounds weird to you.

different strokes. [/quote]

How about --- 'my sons are coming over for Thanksgiving'. [/quote]

Thank you anon poster. [/quote]
