We have some friends with kids about the same ages as ours, mid 20’s to early 30’s.
Ours were all out and on their own by 19-20 and are all doing well.
Theirs are all still at home. One has worked at McDonald’s for ten years. He did earn a bachelors degree at a local college but doesn’t seem to have any sort of real plan beyond getting a doctorate in history.
One is a trucker and seems to be doing the best financially of them all. One of mine is also a trucker and makes a very good income.
Their mom makes a point that apartment rent is very high. So what? Find roommates, rent a dump in a rough area.
My friends just need to lay it down and say Get out and grow up.
mom probably wants them at home.
