Emerging Adults: The questions you can't ask about their job hunt.
Graduation was 8 months ago, but my friend C's son is still living at home and still delivering pizza--despite a B.A. in international studies and an impressive grade point average at a respected state university. It may or may not be bothering her son, but it is causing C all kinds of anxiety. It's an anxiety that gets no relief from information, since information about the job search is not available.
"I have tried to stop asking because it doesn't go well," she says. "The least question about jobs or graduate school is met with massive resistance. He must be worried."
And that's what really worries C.
