[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a woman in real life who is essentially trying to make it so her kids never, ever leave home and it is so sad to watch. [b]Mentally healthy parents want to see their kids differentiate and grow and establish their own lives[/b].[/quote]

No, sorry! The entirety of human kind has had multigenerational families. This separation is a symptom of a spoiled America, and it’s damaging in so many ways to all involved.

Yes, a healthy parent wants their child to succeed and be self sufficient, but that’s about that.

[b]Unfortunately Americans have this all wrong, and so many of them suffer from mental illness and take a ton of pills.[/b] For many it could be avoided by having larger and reliant families. [/quote]

There is a lot of unhappiness in multigenerational families as well.

IMO the ideal situation is to live independently in your own home but be close enough to family that you can visit ~weekly and help each other when needed.[/quote]
