So is this just about sleeping arrangements under your roof? It is absolutely reasonable to ask (nicely demand) that they not sleep in the same room. I followed the same many times, or would have, when in that situation as a young unmarried lad. I actually would have felt odd otherwise (sleeping in the same room). It’s just a formality but a respectful one.

Actually his mom was involved and it gets that bad. She supposedly has been talking to his mom!!! lol. I am doomed.
That’s where the plan originated.

Tvilletiger: I’m going to approach this from a different (non-sexual) angle that I haven’t seen addressed.
Is part of the issue that you have with your daughter’s behavior is that you actually miss her now that she has recently gone away to college as a freshman? When she came back home because of the hurricane, she isn’t spending much time with you and the family but is instead wanting to spend almost all of her time with her boyfriend?
The reason why I ask is that Freshman year is not only an adjustment for the student but also the parent. Facing the reality of the “empty nest” is a major adjustment for many parents.

I don't feel like scrolling through 9 pages of bs. What is the daughter's OF?

What if they're paying 80% of the bills? 70%? 20%?

I think there is some of that involved. It’s out of my control now I have decided. Just no sleepovers while she is home. I mean they are basically laying on top of each other on the couch currently. I am giving up.

My house, my rules.
I had no control over what my daughter and her boyfriend did when they were in college, but when they were in my house, they lived by my rules. There was one minor argument about it, but only one, and it was a short one.
They are married now and when I go to their house, I try to abide by their rules.

Hell yeah brother, let's take all agency away from our adult kids and then wonder why they can't make a life decision for themselves when they are in their mid-20's!
Equating a sleepover to life decisions is a bit of a reach.

e you this fricking stupid? Are you saying the majority of 20-29 year olds in the US aren't financially independent?
Young adults in the U.S. are experiencing a very different trajectory than their parents, with more of them hitting key milestones later in life and also taking on more debt, according to a new report from the Pew Research Center.
A majority of young adults say they remain financially dependent on their parents to some extent, such as receiving help paying for everything from rent to their mobile phone bills. Only about 45% of 18- to 34-year-olds described themselves as completely financially independent from their parents, the study found.
This adds 5 years to your 29 years old total but yes I am saying that.
I understand if this is hard to fathom but I’ve been saying for a while we are in the crunch. 2 classes at the end of this.

At 18. No, you are 100% correct. All about respect for you and herself.
