It is very normal for Asian families to live together.  They pool resources to buy large homes in HCOL areas with good schools.  They are able to save a lot of money and can have a very good standard of living because of shared resources.  They can hire cleaning people, landscapers, save on utilities, food, amenities, childcare, eldercare, go on vacations etc.   During the pandemic, so many moms quit the workforce because of childcare issues, but this as not the case with people in joint families.

I have seen people able to withstand loss of employment, disease and other adversities better because they are not alone doing it all.  I have seen young moms being able to get great college education and get good jobs after they have had babies because they did not have to worry about running their home or the care of their children and had a lot of family .

To make your AC get out of your house is a shortsighted approach to life. You both need each other in your various stages of life. It also teaches you tolerance and patience.  It forces you to be useful and contribute to the family.  And in a country like America, you have the ability to get large spacious homes together,  that gives everyone privacy and their own space.
