How to Deal with Your Adult Child’s Disrespectful Behavior However well-meaning, it’s never in your child’s best interest to take away their self-sufficiency or pride of accomplishment by doing too much for them. Once in a while, doing things for those reasons is fine, but when it becomes a continual pattern with your adult child it ceases to be fine.

Are you giving in to your kids’ demands out of guilt or fatigue? Or because you want them to like you or not bug you? Or because you want to keep the peace?.

What is your motivation for helping your kids? Is it for them? Or is it for you?.

When you think you’re being helpful, are you really showing your kids how real-life works?.

Is doing for your child what they can do themselves truly helpful?.

Keep in mind the true meaning of the word helpful: In reality, though, you hurt your child when you do things for them that they need to be learning to do themselves. Also, it might give you that warm feeling of being helpful to your child. Over functioning for your child can be difficult to stop because it is often an automatic response. And probably your adult child means no harm by any of this-he’s just behaving the way he always has because nothing has changed. Staying in this pattern can leave your child in a state of permanent adolescence, ready to “let Mom to Dad do it” while he goes about his business. Only now, your child is an adult, and could (and should) be doing these things himself-right? And it can happen naturally-you clean up, do the laundry, and pay the bills, just like you always did.

In other words, your child learns to be helpless which impedes their ability to move out and make their own way. And when you over-function, your child under-functions. However, when you do for them what they can do for themselves, you are over-functioning. Every parent wants to be helpful to their children-that’s natural. It’s easy to fall back into this pattern because it might have been going on for years. This happens when you do too much for your kids, which results in your children doing too little.

One of the most common patterns parents and children fall back into is the over-functioning parent and the under-functioning child. Over-Functioning Parents Lead to Under-Functioning Kids These old patterns will also hurt your efforts to maintain a strong and healthy relationship while they are home. These old patterns, unfortunately, will be roadblocks to helping your kids get on their feet and out the door. Even though your child is an adult now, it is so natural to revert back to the old patterns and roles that operated when your kids were younger. The first thing to realize is that the expectations of your role as a parent and your child’s role as a child, have changed. One of the biggest challenges is to create new patterns of behavior between you and your child that reflect the fact that your child is now an adult. Whatever the reason for your kids being home, living together can be difficult. I’m going to tell you about ways you can help create a healthier, more respectful situation for both of you. If you have an adult child living at home with you and it’s causing stress and resentment, keep reading.

“Staying in a pattern of doing too much for your child can leave him in a state of permanent adolescence, ready to ‘let Mom or Dad do it’ while he goes about his business.” Whether you’re concerned about your child gaining employment, paying their share of the rent, or contributing to household chores, a whole new set of dynamics occurs when adult children live with their parents. Having adult kids live under your roof can be a major source of stress in any family. In other words, they’re idle, going nowhere fast, and likely driving their parents crazy. In fact, 1 in 4 is neither working nor going to school. What are those kids still doing at home? According to the Census Bureau, not much at all for many of them. The United States Census Bureau reported recently that one-third of young adults now live with their parents. In recent years, the old expectation that kids will move on and out of the house has almost disappeared. Do you have an adult child living at home who’s driving you crazy in one way or another? Do they seem unable to do chores around the house, contribute financially, or be respectful? If so, you are not alone.
