31-Year-Old Claims His Parents Are ‘So Controlling’ He Isn’t Allowed to Be Home Alone

Yesterday, Dr. Phil spoke with Karen and Jim who claim they are desperate to remove their violent and mooching 31-year-old son, Kyle, from their home. Kyle gave reason after reason why he felt his parents were at fault for his financial situation. Today, Dr. Phil enlists the help of the star of the popular TV show, Bar Rescue, Jon Taffer, to offer advice to Kyle and his parents. Taffer has written a new book, “Don’t ******** Yourself, Crush The Excuses That Are Holding You Back”, and shares with Kyle and his parents the secrets to overcoming the excuses that keep people from being successful. Will Kyle listen to Dr. Phil and Jon Taffer? Will he finally move out of his parents’ house? (2216318RR)

Did his father actually show up with a lawyer to question his son on Dr. Phil? That's what it looks like to me.

[@a32tl]

I am definitely what one would call a late bloomer. I lived at home until I was 39. However, I pulled my weight around the house. I lived upstairs and my parents lived downstairs. I kept my part of the house clean, did my own laundry, washed their cars, handled the yard work, took out all the trash and paid for my own groceries and bills. The only thing that my parents provided was dinner. I would eat meals with them that they prepared. Honestly, I never really wanted to move out but ultimately felt so much shame and embarrassment from our culture that I chose to move out. My parents and I got along great. My first night in my new house, I knew there was no turning back. I’ve been on my own now for 17 years and the loneliness is brutal at times. I still visit them frequently but I 100% support myself. I’ve done well financially and I give back to them periodically. I bring them a meal at least once per week. Buying my own place got society’s disapproval off of my back but it really didn’t fix anything in me. I’m okay with having my own house but I do hate coming home to an empty home every single day. I’ve never been in a relationship and don’t see that changing anytime soon. I don’t know why but I never really matured emotionally beyond about age 12 or 13. I never wanted age appropriate things like my siblings and peers did. I still feel like a kid inside. I know I’m not though and I accept my adult responsibilities but emotionally I do feel like I’m 13. It’s an odd dynamic because in my profession, I have a lot of responsibility and many people are dependent on me to perform my job. I always come through. It’s just in my personal life where I’m underdeveloped.

There won't be anyone asking you to please turn the music down (although my kids were pretty good about stuff like that), and you won't have to deny yourself an extra share of the leftovers so I can take them for my lunch."

When you don't have a vehicle, get a job that you can get to without relying on your family or friends to take you there. A job close to home so you can walk there, on the bus line, skate board, can ride your bike to, or get an Uber. No one owes you a ride to work.

After 18, you are an adult. Make your own way. Your parents should not be required to give you a bedroom, feed you, do your laundry, etc. Grow up. Move out. Your failure to accept adulthood requires mental help intervention. Come once in a while to visit but call first.

He could leave, but no one wants to sleep on a park bench in the cold. But yeah, he should respect his elders

[@charlieann456]

Roommates could be his answer. If afraid to live alone, a roommate would help him get confidence.

I was almost expecting Jon taffer to just yell at him on live TV 😂😂😂 I stand corrected Jon taffer is legendary

Maybe parents are right,but treating your son this way is not all right too.If they were a little bit more affectionate with him during childhood the situation was different.Throwing a child out like a piece of trash,even if he is older,is not a solution.this story has 2 faces.sad story.where we became on 21 century.

Well you got to move out. It’s their house so they can make whatever rules they want.

Insanity is doing the same things over and over, but expecting a different outcome.

Put in for a vacation at his job, pack up stuff in the middle of the night, and just drive somewhere. Later, if he can obtain proof of fraud, decide whether he wants to take action against parents. If he has good skills and a good resume, make a clean slate of it. Life depends on it.
