I wonder if this really is the majority in america..its weird, I dont really see it here but im guessing a lot of people I know are getting parents help. I am seeing more homeless in my area all the time though but that does seem mental health related as well
If you knew for a fact that you'd never retire, you'd go a bit insane as well
From me and my husband's family, 5/6 kids (late millennials and gen z) have absolutely fallen back on moving back in with Mom and Dad in order to made things work. Probably one of those could have made it work otherwise, and the one that didn't have help lives in a tiny house. We've all been working the whole time, it's just between crazy rent hikes, health issues, and hurricanes it just hasn't been realistic to thrive (or in some of our cases thrive) without help. There's no social safety net.
Most of my friends (we're in our 30s) really want to start families and genuinely just can't afford to. We couldn't if we weren't receiving support from family. Childcare is just prohibitively expensive (especially on top of rent and insurance).
