The problem that I have observed and encountered with regard to adult children sharing personal space (i.e. a home) with parents is a problem of ‘personal space.’
Too often, the adult chilld reverts to an adolescent pattern of behavior while staying with his/her parents.
This is pattern of behavior familiar and comfortable for the adult child, but it can be obtrusive, obstructive and confining for the parents who now have to work around another adult’s (not a dependent minor child’s) needs.
And then there are the material needs of the ‘adult child’ living at home or who ias dependent upon his parents.
Too many adult children have become enamored of what they see as their material ‘needs.’ These ‘needs’ usually translate into money being asked of the parents for what are are essentially luxuries for the unemployed or under employed adult child.
These ‘adult children’ don’t seem to have the same ability or self-discipline to ‘do without’ during hard times.
To cite a frequently occurring TV commerial about qucikly getting money from cash settlements, these young adults seem to say in a chorous,
“I want my money and I want it now!”
#1 — I moved back home after being on my one at 25. It lasted one week and my dad and I got into it on how I was keeping my room. That was it, I don’t care what issues there may be, I had to go.
What happed to the time when a young person either go a few friends and rented a house or aprtment or found room and board.
Is generation Y and millennials are just oversize entitlement babies?

The difficulty is that they seem to have some fundamental problems trying to locate work.

When I was 25, I was in the Service; best decision I ever made (next to marrying my wife, of course!).
