Living with Grown children

[debidoo]

Do any of you guys live with grown children?  How is it working out for you?  Is it daughters or sons?  I live with my two grown sons since their dad died.  Whew what can I say sometimes it is ok but sometimes I would rather be by myself.  At times they are bossy and hard to get along with.  Oh well it is what it is.

I have a  17 year old at home and she can be just as bossy but even moodier.  My older son and daughter live on their own but sometimes spend a week end with us.  It is worse when there are 2 of them together because it seems like they like to gang up on me and my husband.  Can't imagine what will happen if I ever have to live with any of them.

I do not have any grown kids that live with me.

My children are 25 and 30 and live on their own an hour away from me (I moved back to my hometown 6 years ago to care for my sick father) My boyfriend, however, has three children: 31, 28 and 25. The oldest was raised by her mother and is a single mother to 3 girls and is managing pretty well. The other two cannot live on their own, work full time or seem to support themselves. My BF pays for an apartment, all the bills AND the 25 year olds cell phone because he is too lazy to work full time! This situation makes me thankful as well as grateful for my children's independence.

We are in the process of buying a house with our youngest son and his family of four, but we will have the entire lower floor with 2 bdrm, bath, kitchen, laundry and living room to ourselves. From our calculations it will be a lot less expensive and help will always be nearby.

I am a grown child who lives with his parents. Sometimes you have too and in my case I do. I don't know why people act like it is a crime or something at times.

My kids are very busy, if I didn't work and lived with them, I would be like living by my self still. I don't need the help yet, thankfully.

Our grown son had to live with us for about 6 months.   I found it to be a great advantage since his father and I are now a bit older and unable to do some of the chores we once could.   It was great to have him around, he worked at several projects we wanted to do and on top he is an excellent chef and cooked some fabulous meals.   He has since moved away and I miss him every day.  I'm not sure if one or both of us will ever need to move in with him but if we do, I'll do everything in my power to make it so I'm not a burden.

I loved both of my parents and they loved me.

Because of that, we chose to live separate of each other. 

Mom stayed with me one time for about 2 weeks before moving out and finding her own place.

i cannot imagine living with either of my kids or vice versa...we all have different ways and all are very independent..we would kill each other...lol

It has to be difficult to live with your grown children.  For the most part, it would depend on their personality, but I can see how problems could arise.  Kids who have grown into adults can be bossy and opinionated about how they want things done or what they think in general.  I have heard grown children treat their elderly parents like they are senile when they aren't.  That would be a big problem!

My Son lives with me for reasons, my daughter, huh now that's a laugh...NEVER !!

my daughter lived with us for a little while,,,  but she had a job and paid her own way for things.  she moved in with her boyfriend for a couple of years but ended that and she moved in with her grandmother ( a good thing,  she really helped her grandmother a lot)   My son went into the army at 18 right out of high school and never looked back. 20 years he did and is now married and lives in Florida  LOL   Daughter is now married and bought her grandmothers house.  I think they have both done OK

My oldest daughter recently turned 18 and she's living with me until she goes off to college next month. Even though she's legally an adult I don't consider her to be fully grown.

I think family is WONDERFUL.....  I have none !!  Be happy you have someone to be with, having no family is very strange. Think about it !
