“It’s great that so many young people have families that they can count on. It’s better than the alternative.”
We have a Foster Son that’s in his 40’s and STILL needs help once in a while. I don’t mind that, as he’s always accountable for what he’s doing with the money we lend him and he manages to pay us back, most of the time.
(No drug and alcohol problems; he has some mental health and physical issues he deals with. He had a horrific childhood; IMHO his ‘parents’ should be in prison!)
That said, it would take an Act of God for me to allow him to come live with us. ;)
I wouldn’t want to live with a 40 something child either. I’ll be pushing 80 and it’s more likely that I would be living with them.
I hope to drop dead unexpectedly rather than a long degeneration of health and mental decline.
