[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there are cultural differences at play here as well—I bet OP is white. [/quote] +1 Such a Karen.[/quote] Yeah, I don't get what the issue is. As long as the kids are either full time employed or full time in school and contribute to upkeep, what is wrong? Seesh, rent is 2K these days. This seems smart. It isn't like they are unemployed and sit in the basement all day.[/quote] Apparently many on DCUM believe you cannot fully become a responsible adult if you "live at home after college". When in reality, making that "sacrifice" is a very mature and fiscally responsible decision. You can still be adulting while doing this if the parents are not helicoptering. But those 1-2+ years of saving rent (and likely other expenses) can put you on a much stronger financial path at a very young age. [/quote]
