What’s the old saying? Something like, “Home is where you go because no one else will take you?’ (or something like that?) Either way, good for you for helping your sons out when they need you. Personally, I’d rather my kids stay with me rather than some rat infested, crime ridden apartment just to be on their own.

You would do them no kindness. It is through adversity we grow. A soft landing makes for flabby reflexes.

I think what is important, when kids move back home, is that there is a real goal in mind, whether it be paying down student loans or saving up for a house or building a business.

There would no way I’d let my kid move back home, if all it meant to him was that he’d have a couple more bucks in his jeans to go out Saturday night.
