Our son isn’t going to be moving out of home, after all, more’s the pity. When he shared the news of his departure, it didn’t foment the rebellion he had probably anticipated. As a lawyer, he should have read the signs better. For years, his mother and I had ben encouraging him to become less dependent on his parents (even our club had refused to acknowledge him as one), offering to assist him in buying or leasing property suitable for a young man about town. But either because he was too lazy, or too comfortable, he had deplored the idea.
