(11,304 posts)Yet our dad would come over on the weekend to take us to the grocery store and to do our laundry. We lasted about a year. I missed my mom and dad and we moved back home. I loved living at home. Of course my dad died at 50 and left 2 small kids at home. My parents had another unplanned family and 10 yrs of no kids. So my mother didn't drive. She depended on our dad. She came from another country. All my cousins stayed home til they got married. That is what Italian young people do and I guess that was the way I was raised. I wouldn't trade it. Nothing wrong with it if your kids contribute to the household. We did. At the time $200.00 a month. I glady paid. My momma took good care of us. I hated leaving home when I got married. My husband loved my momma also. He was closer to my mother then his own adopted parents. I see nothing wrong with your kids living with their parents.
