[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 416210, member: 1514"] Hi, so sorry you had to find our board but I want to welcome you as well. I also have a 24 year old son. He also has a girlfriend that might as well be a wife who is pretty much a burden too. I made the huge mistake of getting the two of them out of my house for almost a year and then I let them move back home. Boy was that the wrong thing to do! Now I am having a dickens of a time getting them out again. Dont make the same mistake I did. Since you have them out...dont let them back in! I know it sounds so mean. I love my son too. They just have to do it for themselves. I have told my two that at their ages I was having my kids and no one was helping me and their dad. He and his girlfriend are just going to have to figure it out like we did. If it means crappy apartments and living on ramen noodles and beans and weenies for a while, so be it. None of this is what we wanted when we had them. We hoped for so much more. Sometimes if we push them out, they can find their wings and while it may take a while, they will learn to fly. [/QUOTE]
