As opposite to the empty nest syndrome, I think I am suffering from a full nest one!
My daughter and her husband had moved in with us while they sorting themselves out after the uni/working abroad. They are both easy going and nice, not intrusive at all. But although we offered for them to stay, I cannot wait for them to move out! I also have a child of 13 and it just feels most of the time that there are too many people in the house!
Also, having lived away from home for 5 years, my daughter have kept her student habits of leaving dirty cups everywhere, stuff on the floor etc. In addition to my teenage child it is like having 3 teens living with me.
I find myself always tidying up after everyone, picking stuff up, reminding etc. and it is really exhausting!
I tried to talk to my daughter, but all she says - mum, I am trying, but I do not have time, I am applying for jobs (she is also working some evenings) and her husband is working full time.
I know it is only temporary, but I am surprised, that I feel so tired and resentful all the time! They both had very good degrees from a top university, and I kind of expected them to be sorted by now.
Am I been to selfish and unreasonable?
