Do they “live with their mothers” in their parents’ house, having never left home, or do they have their own homes and care for their elderly parents?

“still live with their mothers”
I think the word “still” is the important one there.
They don’t leave home. Many don’t have jobs, or at least “adult” jobs. They stay at home because it is not manly to cook or clean or do laundry and so until they find a wife, that is mamma’s job.
That culture has infected the U.S. in many places as well.
I just can’t grasp that, when I was 18, I wanted out!
Lots of them still live with their mothers in their mothers’ homes, with or without a father. Never grew up and established their own households. Can’t even conceive of having children of their own, because they can’t imagine who would take care of them (there being a severe shortage of women interested in marrying this sort of guy).
