When I first got out of college, I thought that I would stay with my parents for at least a year to save money. After two months, I practically ran out and found my own apartment. It wasn't the fanciest place, but it was close to work and within my price range.

I love my parents, but there is NOTHING that can substitute for one's independence. Its a natural part of being an adult, but it seems to me that these kids simply want to extend childhood.

Part of the problem is that many parents nowadays want to be a "friend" to be their children.
