Motivating Your Young Adult Son to Tidy Up His Space

Getting my young adult son to clean his room sometimes feels like trying to move a mountain! I remember the days when I could just tell him to pick up his toys, but now, as he’s grown, it’s a whole new challenge. I’ve learned that nagging rarely works—instead, I try to have honest conversations about respect for shared spaces and personal responsibility. Sometimes, I’ll offer to help him get started, or we’ll set a timer and make it a quick challenge. It’s not always perfect, but small steps and patience go a long way.
