[quote=Anonymous]I'm the OP. To the PP who claims that all over Europe multiple generations live under one roof, this is not quite accurate. I have relatives and friends in Europe and it is definitely not the norm where they live. It may be more common in southern European countries (e.g. in Spain, Italy, Greece etc.) but it is not as common in northern Europe where people move into nursing homes, Assisted Living and other facilities. The downside is that there are often long waiting lists to get into nursing homes and AL. A relative in Europe told me there currently is a waiting list of 1500 people in one of her local nursing homes, and some people put themselves on the waiting list years before they even want to move in there.[/quote]
