Help! My Son Moved Back In and My House is a Mess!

Hey everyone,

I really need some advice. My son, Kyle, moved back in with me after his divorce, and now my apartment looks like a total mess. It’s like a frat house in here! He’s 30 years old, and I was really hoping he’d get back on his feet quickly, maybe even find someone new and get married again. But right now, it feels like he’s just stuck in a rut.

I love Kyle, but I can’t keep living like this. My place used to be my sanctuary, and now it’s just chaos. There are clothes everywhere, dishes piling up, and he’s always bringing friends over. I don’t want to be the nagging mom, but I also can’t stand living in a pigsty.

Has anyone else been through something similar? How do I encourage him to take responsibility for his life and his mess? Should I set some ground rules or give him a timeline to move out? I don’t want to push him away, but I also need my space back.

Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, guys.
