He is an adult and you owe him nothing more for free. Please do not allow him to treat you this way: decide if he is better off out of the household before asking him to come take his stuff or allowing him to come back. Our 18-19 year old was not really growing in the household (lots of eating, sleeping, computer) and not contributing to the life of the family, and not attending school. We were relieved when he moved out. We rented a big truck and insisted that he take everything. So far, he has really pared the amount of stuff down, has been working and looks better. We are trying hard not to ever bail him out and to let him solve his own problems.We started using his room for other stuff and when it was evident that he might come back, asked for rent payments (told him we would save them for him, but he had to pay), chores, and that he could not reintroduce his computer to our office. He chose to live elsewhere. Our relationship has improved since he has nothing to rebel against. There is also a fair amount of information on Dr. Phil's website that was interesting to develop perspective.

They may still be financially "responsible" for you until you are 18 but the way the law sees it they do not have to provide for their grandchildren if you decide to have a child before becoming an adult.
