There would be advantages to living at home. To be completely politically incorrect, I think this would have more value for women than men. Why? Ideally, a man should be the primary breadwinner in the household. A man needs to develop good work habits early. Living away from home would motivate a young man to increase his earning power, at least versus living at home. OTOH, living away from home can promote vice.
The priorities are different for women. A young woman should be planning on running a household as her primary duty. Living at home would serve two ends. It would help to preserve her virtue and reputation; and she would be able to pursue an education, save for a downpayment on a house, pursue a career, or any combination of the three.
I believe that the best thing for both young men and women is to begin working as early as possible. It's the best remedy for head-in-the-clouds disease.
Certainly helps! On the other hand, earning money, but not having to pay bills, promotes irresponsibility.
