[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hilarious? Not if you're affected by it. Check out this link http://therapyevanston.com/2012/09/failure-to-launch/, which reads in part: Low functioning grown children who are highly dependent on their parents are a growing phenomenon in many parts of the world. In Japan they are called “Hikikomori”, in Italy “Bamboccioni,” in Germany and France “Tanguy Syndrome”, and in England “NEET” (not in employment, education, or training) or “Kippers” (kids in parents pockets eroding retirement savings). In Canada, they are called “Boomerang Children”, in Austria “Mamma”s Hotel Children,” and in South Korea, they are known as “Kangurus.” In the Unites States, we call it the “Full Nest Syndrome” and “ILYA” (incompletely launched young adult).[/quote] I have another term for them: Pathetic.[/quote]
