Mam, I’m Moving In… Again Episode 586
Niall Boylan
On today’s show, Niall dives into one of the most talked-about government ads in years — a new TV campaign encouraging adult children to move back in with their parents.
Is this a compassionate message about family support, or a not-so-subtle admission that housing has become completely unaffordable?
This episode takes on the debate from both angles:
Housing Crisis Reality:
Is the government using family homes as a pressure valve instead of fixing supply, affordability, and planning?
Family Dynamics:
If your 30- or 40-year-old wanted to move home, would it warm your heart — or turn your life upside down?
Niall opens the phone lines and hears powerful, funny, and honest stories from callers who have lived through it — some who welcomed their kids back, and others who couldn’t imagine it.
He’s also joined by election candidate Elaine Mullally, who gives her take on the ad, the housing policy behind it, and whether this is a realistic solution or political window dressing.
A lively, relatable, and sometimes emotional debate about homes, families, and the pressures shaping modern Ireland.
