Yep, i’ve noticed it repeatedly.. every time I come across an adult son ..for some reason they are usually 27-28 y/o..living with their single mom.
I’ve noticed too..mom’s will act like its a problem when someone says anything..but they never actually put their foot down. I think its like i said cause they want a real man but they can’t or won’t find one.
Once in awhile someone moves back with their folks and it really is temporary. They work like crazy and save money ..so, they can get out of that situation. I don’t have a problem with that.
If someone is motivated it would take maybe year of living thrifty so they could save enough for a down payment on a trailer outside of town on a acre of land.
my daughter just lived with us for a year for free to buy a house.
But she had a job, kicked in $$ if i asked for it, watched my dogs so we could go away for the weekend.
She’ll be in her new house by August.
( my husband’s client.....son is over 30 with a well paying job but is mama’s buddy and won’t be moving anytime soon)
