Re: advice on post grads returning home again

I've always said that the easiest bit with kids, generally, is making them and then it is downhill all the way! Just because they have a degree doesn't mean that they know what they want to do with their lives or worse still, that they will get a job. There are so many kids with degrees nowadays, to be honest, they are worthless. Wait for the potential employers asking for experience. My 2 knew what they wanted to do but had a hell of a job finding a job and it took them 12 months each. Even so, ES had to accept one job, get known and then side step. I had ES home originally for about 6 months. He never got out of bed. The 2 days he eventually got up at 6 pm, really got to me though. Unbeknown to me, he was emailing and on the phone to his girlfriend (whom we knew nothing about) in Australia! Guess who was paying the bill. As it happens she then came over and they have been together about 8 years now and have a beautiful baby boy.

It will get better. It won't get cheaper. It will take time. So just hang in there. We've all been through it.
