So being well off enough to afford your own space is a bad thing?
Are you sure about that?
Single dads head record share of U.S. households with children
Single fathers tend to be younger, poorer and less educated than married ones, the Pew report showed. They fare better financially than single mothers, though, even though they are less likely than single mothers to have gone to college.

Family-Relevant Vulnerabilities of Singles with No Children
In the United States, to be single is to be economically disadvantaged by law. (For a discussion of legal discrimination as well as other instances of singlism, see DePaulo 2006 and DePaulo 2011). There are more than 1,100 federal laws that benefit and protect only those who are legally married. Consider the example of a single person who works side-by-side with a married coworker at the same job, at the same level of achievement, for the same number of years. When the married worker dies, he or she can leave Social Security benefits to a surviving spouse (and, under certain circumstances, a whole series of ex-spouses); the benefits of the single worker with no children go back into the system. Similarly, no other person can give their Social Security benefits to an adult who has always been single.
