Young adult children living at home- any rules?

My two children now have young adult children ( 17 -24) living at home. I hear about difficulties but don’t normally offer my opinion unless asked. There is often a mismatch between expectations on both sides eg expenses, contributions to chores, freedoms, overnight guests etc. and the solutions are not always easy to find or to put in place.
I am interested in how this is working out in other families.

No recent experience.
But even with the kids and the young grandchildren who come to stay, we say, our house our rules.

Are your kids being reasonable towards your grandchildren?

No smoking would be a rule here too, now you mention it, Seajaye.

The OP doesn't seem to have come back so perhaps they have the answer now.

Thanks for all the comments which I have read with interest.

There are no right answers.
Not all issues can be resolved.
