There are numerous adult sons and daughters in our neighborhood that are still living at home. Many of them in their 30’s and hanging around long after they should have struck out on their own. But living with mommy and daddy allows them to drive new cars, live way beyond their income, and avoid the responsibilities associated with becoming an independent, mature person.

In many respects, these parents are weakening, rather than strengthening, their children. Life is filled with many challenges, disappointments, and sacrifices. The sooner you learn to deal with them and learn how to prosper on your own the better. It’s called growing up.

Exactly. IMO it’s criminal, but clearly it’s what the parents want.
