Take them back in my home? That seems to be the usual, which is strange to me.


For all those saying you wouldn't take them back in would you really allow your kid to be homeless vs. moving back in? I wouldn't think many of you would if faced with this situation, even if it was the kid's fault.

With that said, there would have to be serious ground rules, and I'd only allow them to stay as long as they were actively seeking employment and helping around the house. If my kid started just mooching off me and not taking any responsibility for his life, then I would probably kick him out.

I don't think anyone is saying they'd kick their kid out to be homeless unless they were a major drug user etc. I assume they mean force them to find other living arrangements, like rooming with someone in a cheap apartment.

I think every situation is different. I had trouble finding a job in my field after graduate school. I stayed with my parents without a second thought and we enjoyed our time together. When I did find a suitable job, I was able to buy my own place. I was working temp jobs etc while I was seeking, but why stretch myself financially before I was ready to?
