My son and family live with me 2017. Has a good income, he paid nothing for living expenses, lodging, food or utilities. Can I claim as depenents? 2 adults 3 children.

He was 29 yrs old, children are 6 and under. He claimed them all on his 2017 return.

 "Has a good income "    If your son and his wife filed a joint return and claimed their children you just have some "rent-free" tenants.  No, you cannot claim them as your dependents.  If you are dis-satisfied with the "paid nothing for living expenses, lodging, food or utilities." that is a whole different issue that is not a tax question.  That is a family issue.
