Main Idea:
Often when older children move back home, unpleasant tensions and disagreements arise.
2
However, adult children who move back home can avoid family conflicts by following some tips.
3
First, they should contribute what they can—and it need not be in terms of money: Being
productive family members will help them earn their keep.
4
This can involve tutoring or coaching
younger sisters or brothers, or helping Mom and Dad with chores and errands.
5
Second, these
“returnees” should not expect their parents to rescue them from difficulties.
6
As adults, they are
responsible for getting out of their own scrapes—and for trying to avoid them in the first place.
7
Last, they must respect their parents’ lifestyles and own needs for independence.
8
It is
unrealistic to expect parents’ lives to revolve around the needs of a grown child, in the manner
they may have when the child was younger.
