I think I fall in the middle of this. I think this kid (and I think he is still a kid) had 38 years to transition to independence. But the same could be said about the parents. Why are they kicking him out now instead of after schooling? Now they are doing this almost cold turkey. Why not tell him he has until his birthday to stay paying rent. Then later impose more restrictions until ultimately sending him on his way.
I'm old so I feel it's ridiculous for a 38 year old to still be living at home without substantially contributing. At the same time they let him do it and it's kind of unfair allow it to get this far. He probably had a reasonable expectation of living with them until he or they died.
we don't know what his parents did or didn't do leading up to op's brief synopsis.
I think we can infer, based on the fact that a grown ass man is still living with his parents and clearly not helping financially since he has no clue how to get a job.
32 here, my parents divorced which kicked me out as they sold the house in my early 20s. From friends I see some still live at home, but those that do all pay rent or help out in some way.
