Aside from all the obvious negative implications of this demographic shift (and believe me I love to bash those millenials)... BUT does anyone else any positive implications for society that parents get a few more years to influence their kids or that the families stay together a little bit longer? Just trying to look from the other side.

Remember when everyone used to speak appreciatively of Asian cultures where they had 3 or 4 generations living together?

Are we just being overly negative?

Freepers have a tendency to be overly negative and it’s become disconcerting to me.
My daughter did NOT live with her fiancé in order to save $, she lived at home. I am sure there are instances where millenials are taking advantage of their parents by freeloading at home, but one should not infer that just by the mere fact that someone is living at home in their 20s. Had I felt for an instant that we were being taken advantage of, we would have insisted they either pay rent or move out on their own.
