Grown adult kids at home

I moved out at 19, needed to for my own sanity but it was tough as I was still an apprentice technically, I was lucky that I did foreigners at the weekend to make my wage up, rented a tiny little upstairs flat with my girlfriend and I think her Parents hoped it would fizzle out between us when we moved in together, we struggled but saved up enough to buy a house together and now have two kids... 15 years ago next Month I moved out and would do it all again, even the shit times where we ate beans on toast every night for 2 weeks! We just looked at it as us vs everyone else.

Honestly it mainly depends on the class background and financial capability of your family.

For example, I wager many of Sheikh Mansour's adult children live with him in his marble palace.

Whereas NHS receptionist Susie from Stockport might find it a burden if her 25 year old son lives with her in their 2 bedroom terraced house.

Apples and oranges.
 
Left home aged 18 then had to return for about 3 months after my marriage failed. With a toddler.
Grandparents by then had retired and downsized, to a tiny new build with one bedroom.
It was absolute hell, not just for me but them too lol. Was a very stressful time for us all though.

Now here's a useless piece of information for you (but the kind that I like). That's exactly what happened to John Milton's first wife, Mary Powell. She moved back to her parents after, I think, one month. After some negotiation, she did go back to Milton to pick up the marriage, though. They did have four children (it's what you did, in those times) but I think the marriage was a pretty tense one.
 
Mine are 21 and 23 make more mess than when they were little.
The recycling bin didn't get emptied last week.
Because one of the thick twats had put in a plastic bag with any old shit in the bin after I had put it out.
The other half wit has decided to do some.washing.
She's emptied the neatly stacked shoping bags all over the garage and filled them with washing.
I'll be glad when they both fuck off
 
You actually sound like one of the rare decent ones.
They really aren’t that rare, it’s just that the ones who act like cunts to squeeze every penny out of people whilst offering them substandard accommodation's give the rest of us a bad name.

Generally anyone with a few rental properties will be fine it’s those that have bought many tens or even hundred of houses, who have no connection and no want to know the people living in them as long as the money keeps rolling in.

Didn't Robbie Fowler do that ?
 
Thought there may have been a thread on this, but the nearest suggestion is Young Boys at home. Enough said.

Those with kids at adult age at home. What would you do if they show no sign of wanting to fly the nest when reaching a certain age?

I was 23 when I moved out. I have no idea what my folks would’ve done if I’d stayed after that or decided I wasn’t moving.

Anyone got their kids at home after that age??

different times mate - I married the 1st Mrs at that age and we bought a house on Grimshaw Lane at Middy Junction on an £11k mortgage which was affordable in 1982. They have no chance now. Daughter 25 lives back at the home I own outright and I am not sad about that. Son lives with his partner in a rented flat in York - both at management level but can't get a mortgage.
 
have a 24 lad and 21 girl still at home both at uni. lad should be finished his teaching degree shortly and has said will move in with mates once working full time. will miss him as hes city and sports mad in general so have some good banter. daughter is pretty independent but think shell move out once working full time as well. after 30-years of marriage me and wife are going through the process of separating - im paying her out for the house so life will be very different and a quiet household soon
