That while in our homes they won't engage in
activities we don't approve of - such as drugs,
drinking, or adultery.
That job-hunting is their primary responsibility,
and they should realize we won't support them if
they don't take it seriously.
That they will share the household chores and
take proper care of their personal space and
belongings.
That they will extend common courtesies, like "I
won't be home for dinner tonight" (which we
promise not to follow up with "So where will
you be going?)
That we will be able to discuss things that bother
us - and we'll make every effort to negotiate a
solution.
That they will contribute a percentage of their
earnings to cover everyday household expenses
such as utilities, phone bills, etc.
Setting Up The Ground Rules
What should we expect of our grown kids who
still live at home?
That they will afford us a fair amount of privacy
- and we will grant them the same.
SPEND YOUR TIME in nothing
which you know must be repented
of; in nothing on which you might
not pray the blessing of God; in noth-
ing which you could not review with a quiet conscience
on your dying bed; in nothing which you
might not safely and properly be found doing if
death should surprise you in the act.
Maybe the eyes are the windows of the
soul, but that still doesn't make the a
mouth the door to the brain.
