New Directions is skilled in teaching young people the tools they need to accomplish this, so call us today for assistance at (954) 571- 5102.

Is Your Young Adult’s Behavior Normal?

Throughout history, there have obviously always been a small amount of young people who move back in with their parents instead of starting their own lives. However, the increase in numbers has been a fairly recent phenomenon. Some research suggests that the current generation has an inflated sense of entitlement and self-worth, thinking that they are more talented, smart, or worthy than other people. They are confronted with a harsh reality when, because of this, they don’t try hard enough in real life, which is typically why they return home. It is estimated that about 13% of adult children move back in with their family, which is a much higher number than it was in the past. In order to break this trend, parents mustn’t spoil their children or give them inordinate amounts of praise.
