It’s not just young adults, I know quite a few who are middle aged. The way to end that is to STOP VOTING FOR DEMOCRATS AND RINOS. But no, people still do and then they wonder why they get taxed through the wazoo, get laid off then find 2000 people applying for one job. Hey but at least they have Obamacare and action on ‘climate change’.

Nearly 37 million young Americans owe more than $1 trillion in student-loan debt — most of it FEDERAL student loan debt.

Well, with the announced (but not yet issued) Executive Order on student loan repayment programs, that could be said to be less than $1T, because Obama has unilaterally shifted some of the burden from student loan borrowers to taxpayers. In the federal guaranteed student loan world it's a zero sum game, what the student does not pay the taxpayer does.

My son came to live with me for a while. He was in his mid forties. It was great....helpful to both. He's kind, frugal, compassionate... Very proud!!

Alas, he's on his own again.

seems the author could have mentioned getting an Obamaphone and stealing the neighbors wi-fi so as to lighten the load on dear old mom and dad for these “necessities”

Maybe some parents don't want their kids to boomerang.

Prior to the industrial age, multiple generations of families lived in the same house or at least on the property together.

I don’t see a problem with adult kids in the house if they go out, get work, work on their education, add to the love atmosphere and pull their weight around the place.

Don’t.

Now, how about some rules for the old folks who have to move in with their adult children?

Hard times, and all that.

Gallup recently released a poll that shows almost 60 percent of Americans think the American dream is dead.

Like the poll suggested....It's dead for the vast majority....What's left of some of the haves might disagree, but it's inordinately clear to most what govenrment has done at all levels, America will likely never recover from.

Several days ago a 44-year-old live-at-home hit and killed with his car a promising young girl home from college for the summer. This guy has a six-page record of driving crimes, including 10 at-fault accidents and 10 license suspensions. His license was suspended and the guy was "impaired" at the time of the accident. I don't know the solution to such "lives with parents" people but it's not just driving suspensions.

Well we are getting ready to move to a mountain retreat and Mom will be living with us in her own downstairs apt. with kitchen. We intend to preserve our privacy to some degree.

The fact that modern parents seem all too amenable to conjugal visits is exacerbating the problem.

What happens when the parents die and leave nothing for the adult sized children to live on?

Failure to thrive is a moral crime.
