I would just deal with it and hope she moves on quickly.

OP can argue that this adult is staying at her home with another unpaid guest.

Yep. Many of the responses though have been helpful. I appreciate all the different POVs

OP, what are YOU smoking? lol.

Why do you have a problem with what I wrote? I was acknowledging my misspelling in my original post. Was there something wrong with that? Why do you really need to attack me for acknowledging an error? Is that wrong? Why are you such an a$$?

Oh no, did mommys little baby boy finally grow up? Mommy doesn't like how widdle baby is with his girlfwend?

Grow the F up, you sound so creepy. He is your son, he's allowed to be giddy and in love and goofy with her. You sound like you are jealous of your son's girlfriend and that's not a good look.

+1. Please try to remember what you were like when you were young and in love.

Sounds like an unkind bunch.

We only have a few more weeks of this madness so should we 1) just endure it; August will pass quickly 2) sit them both down and explain how polite people interact with other family members or 3) banish gf for remainder of summer?

What I'm getting from this is envy that your son has a most fun relationship with his GF than you do with your spouse, or that you are jealous of the other woman competing for his attention.

Op you need to cut those apron strings get a dog or a hobby. Your son is an adult now. Be happy for him and find another project for yourself.

Might as well face it: He's addicted to love.

Nowhere did you describe specific behaviors, so it looks as though you just don't like that your son has a girlfriend, OP.

If they're wrapped up in each other, with no consideration for others, and get up late, make noise late at night, flake on getting together with the rest of the family, don't clean up after themselves - you know, the usual - then you say so. Firmly, clearly, no anger. Just a reminder of how adults are supposed to act in the house and in your company.

But no banishment, unless you want your kid to leave early for college, hide his relationships and not see you again for a long time.

Say absolutely nothing! If you want a relationship with your adult son, keep quiet.

Expect every word you say to get back to his GF. My DH and I got together very young and he did not have the maturity to filter his mom’s criticisms when talking to me. It caused permanent damage to the relationship.
