No we haven't but can imagine it's frustrating. When our son comes to stay his room is a tip but we shut the door on it. He always sorts it before he leaves.

Not lazy, no. But has a condition.

Also, not driving anyone crazy

My eldest son came home unexpectedly during lockdown from teaching in Vietnam. He is excellent at baking and cooking so I am enjoying having him home.

My last one leaves for uni tomorrow. It's unlikely she will return, but she knows that if she does she will have to pull her weight and pay her way.

"I left home as soon as I was able. I love being independent.

Living at home as an adult must suck. "

Yeah, it’s fun fun fun I can tell ya!

I love my mum but I'd really struggle to move back in now. It was hard after living away for 4 years for uni to have to move back in. It was such a relief when I managed to afford to move out again. It was a struggle starting from scratch furniture wise and I didn't have a sofa for a few months but it was worth it.

I'm lucky that both my parents are still alive. Could I live with them, or vice versa? Never, under normal circumstances.

I'm a lazy adult living at home alone. Does that count?

Took our 19yr old daughter back to Chichester last Saturday and today we are in Orleans dropping off our 21yr old son just leaving us our 16yr old son at home.

Happy days indeed.

Nah

I moved out at 17, my sister moved out at 16. My brother is autistic, he’s 22 and still lives at home, and I don’t think he’ll ever move out. My other sister is 13 so still lives at home

We have our 18yo at home for another couple of weeks, then he's moving out for uni. He hasn't been the greatest help recently, but he has his reasons. He made dinner for us all last night and he has never baulked at helping me in my post op state. He helps with his little sister (3), picks her up from nursery, takes her to the park, helps me do her bedtime routine etc if S is away, because I can't lift her etc. So, although I'd like him to keep his room tidier and help with the housework/garden, I'll stick with what I've got.

No but I know a few people who have. My brothers and me were taught from an early age to keep bedrooms tidy and help with some chores. We still do this now we have our own homes.

Eldest about to turn 19 & living at home through uni (saving his student loan money for a house deposit!!)

He deep-cleaned his bedroom yesterday which was a total shock to the system - I’m sure he had creatures living in there with him!! Amazing what getting a girlfriend can do!! He’s been great with doing the shopping during lockdown & does do the washing if I sort into piles. He just needs telling/asking to get things done
