Steps
步骤
STEP 1 Work out arrangements
1.精心安排
Work out the spatial and financial arrangements ahead of time. Reduce tension by discussing mutual expectations, personal goals, and timelines.
提前精心制定好空间和财务方面的安排。讨论共同的期望，个人目标和时间表，缓解紧张关系。
STEP 2 Re-purpose a room
2.重新选择房间
Re-purpose a room instead of encroaching on already utilized areas to accommodate everyone's need for personal space. Rent a storage space for your extra stuff instead of crowding your folks.
重新选择一个房间，而不是入侵现在已经有人使用的区域，满足每个人对个人空间的需求。租用一个存储多余物品的地方，而不是和家人拥挤在一起。
Be aware of an inclination to act like an adolescent again, expecting service from them that an adult should do for themselves.
不要表现得像青少年一样，原本作为成年人应该自己做的事情却期望他人为你服务。
STEP 3 Follow their rules
3.遵守他们的规定
Consider that this is their home. Your guests have to follow the rules -- even curfews -- if that's what will make the arrangement work.
要意识到这是他们的家。你的客人们要遵守他们的规定——甚至宵禁——如果这样才能让安排顺利进行的话。
STEP 4 Pay back
4.回报
Pay your parents back for their kindness by cleaning up after yourself, running errands, making repairs, mowing the lawn, and making dinner once in a while. Show maturity, independence, and a serious intention to find a place of your own as soon as possible.
自己经常主动打扫卫生，跑腿，修理，修剪草坪，偶尔做一下晚餐，回报父母的仁慈。表现出成熟，独立的态度，并严肃地表示尽快找到自己的地方。
STEP 5 Split up chores
5.分担家务
Help create a chore chart to divide the labor among everyone. Essential duties like cleaning, laundry, and preparing meals take cooperation-- it's better to define responsibilities before resentments start.
帮助分配任务，每个人都分担一点家务活。必要的任务，比如清洁，洗衣服和准备晚餐等需要合作——在产生怨恨情绪之前就明确每个人的职责就更好了。
STEP 6 Get out sometimes
6.留出一点时间
Continue to have a social life. Hanging around the house all the time trying to entertain one another is asking for trouble. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
继续保持社交生活。一直宅在家里大眼瞪小眼是自找麻烦。适当的距离产生美。
STEP 7 Work, save, go
7.工作，节省，搬出去
Maintain a busy, productive schedule. Find work, save money, and move on.
保持忙碌，高效的生活。找份工作，存钱，尽快搬出去。
