My husband and I have a son and a daughter who are 27 and 24 years old and they both still live with us. My hubby dotes on them and has spoilt them since childhood. I was always the disciplinarian, the one who tried to set boundaries.

Both of our kids have degrees and well-paying jobs but they don’t contribute to the household, instead spend their salaries on their own interests and on going out with their friends.

When I talk to my husband about it he simply says it’s a pleasure for him to take care of them and that we are fortunate to have them living in our home. I don’t agree and think he has created monsters who only think about themselves and their own enjoyment.
