He said it would be “for a few months” until he saves for a down payment. That was 11 months ago. Now he’s working remote from my dining room table, ordering DoorDash twice a day, and his girlfriend just started “staying over” on weekdays. They treat my house like a co-living space — coffee mugs everywhere, laundry half-done, thermostat always at 70 because “it helps him focus.” When I asked if they could chip in for utilities, he told me, “Mom, you said you wanted me to get ahead financially. Why are you charging me rent?” I love my son, but at what point does “helping your adult kid” turn into being taken advantage of? My husband says I’m overreacting. I say this is how you create 30-year-old teenagers. #Family #Money #Adulting
