"Manifestations in Children

Several manifestations of adult children refusing to grow up can be found in chronic job-hopping or lengthy unemployment, developing a lot of debt, poor motivation to even begin looking for a job, lack of respect for any form of authority (including parents), low self-esteem, difficulty in establishing or maintaining relationships, rude and ungrateful behavior, verbal and physical abuse of parents, perhaps even going so far as to create one crisis after another in order to avoid real-life consequences of decisions made.

Selfishness at the Core

Adult children who refuse to grow up and are possibly raising children of their own are, by example, teaching their own children how to use, abuse and manipulate others for their own selfish desires. Adult children who have moved back in with their parents no longer have to worry about how the rent or mortgage will get paid, whether there will be working utilities, where their next meal will come from, when or how the home or laundry will be cleaned. The adult responsibilities are taken care of by the parents, thus allowing adult children to continue as perpetual minors, with the freedom to come and go as they please, living their lives as if it were a life-long party."

Someone just put me out of my misery.
