Welcome to Boomerang Kids Contracts



Is your adult child moving back home? Has he or she never left?
Are you going broke because of your "twenty-something" year-old?
Did your empty nest suddenly turn into a crowded nest?

Boomerang Kids

The term boomerang kids is commonly used to describe young adults who live briefly on their own before ultimately "returning to the nest" to live with their parents. These children typically move back home due to financial issues or because of sudden lifestyle changes (divorce, addiction, unemployment, etc.).

The decision to allow an adult child to move back home can be awkward and stressful. Permitting it can strain family relationships and drain financial resources. Forbidding it could be devastating to the child who needs the support of his or her parents.

Too often, parents remember all of the struggles that went along with raising their children; the messy rooms, the arguments, the limit pushing, and so on. The last thing these parents want in their lives is to have to go through all of that again.
