You have an adult child who has left their partner with whom they have been cohabitating and their relationship of almost 9 years. There were no outward indications of any disatisfaction, and the breakup comes as somewhat of a surprise for you - not an entire surprise, as you haven't liked the spouse for a few years, but still a surprise regardless. Your child returns to live with you while they are saving up money to get their own place and support themselves again.
How long do you let your child stay with you, provided that you have the room and financial capability to have them do so?
How would you react to your child dating again very shortly after?
If you found out that there was some overlap in emotions between the two relationships, how would you react?
If your child told you they had "met the person of their dreams" and planned on marrying this new person, what do you say to them and what advice would you give them?
