Anger, joy, anxiety, dread, excitement. Those are some of the up and down emotions you may be dealing with when you find out your grown child is about to reclaim his or her room in your house. The stats suggest you are not alone–in feeling this way or in dealing with this fact of life: An online poll by CollegeGrad.com found that 77 percent of new college alums had moved home in 2008–a 10 percent jump in just two years. And those stays may be longer and grow in number until the economy kick-starts itself into a growth mode.
For those facing the move-back-home trend, there's an "Are You Ready for a Refilled Nest?" quiz on this site. But ready or not, you may have to clear your junk out of their room and get ready to share your home with your kids again.
