[quote=Anonymous]I only see this happen with friends whose parents are more well off than average. Out of our group of friends, only 3 (including me) come from a poor immigrant background, and get no financial support from the parents (it's actually the other way around now). The rest still have their various bills paid for by their parents, despite having high paying jobs. The other day my friend frantically asked me how to set up new cell service, apparently he has a fallout over his cell phone bill usage and his dad was kicking him off the family plan. Can you imagine a 28 year old man having to give his dad a satisfactory answer about his cell phone usage or risk getting it shut off? It's definitely a shift from the old "kick 'em out at 18 and let 'em deal with it!!!" mentality. These parents helicopter their kids, then wondering why the kids are dependent on them.[/quote]
