All right. Today's question comes from Dennis in New Hampshire. My adult son was laid off from his

tech job and now works retail while job hunting. We invited him to live with us rent free until he gets

back on his feet. My wife and I enjoy his company. But how do we get him to realize the value of what we're

providing? I've asked him to do a couple of simple tasks to help us out, and his response is

that he's too tired. I can do, I can do tasks, myself with a lot less aggravation,

but the real value is in learning to help out and the responsibility of home ownership. How can he not see the value of doing simple tasks

in exchange for what he is receiving? Oh, no. Because he doesn't have to. It's too late.

Because he doesn't have to. He's grown.. Because he doesn't have to. He's grown.

You don't get to be his daddy anymore.

All you can do is let him get out in the wild and he'll figure it out.

It's too late.

You can't retrain a 33-year-old, honey.

Okay, the key there is that you can't retrain him, but he can learn.

I know, but how can you, you know, he's treating him.

He can't.

This sounds like the guy thinks he's 16 years old.

Well, and I don't know.

How do I teach my child to work ethic?

He's not a child.

I don't know.

Yeah, I don't know if a adult.
