[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]

%100  My daughter will always be my girl and my two sons are my boys.  I don't care how old they get or how old I get.  Calling them that has ZERO to do with how they were raised, it's holds as much weight as a pet name.  All of our kids were raised to work hard and earn what they wanted instead of asking for it.  People who get hung up and place so much value on the pet name someone uses for their child amaze me.  My grandmother called me "baby girl" until the day she died.  [/quote]
