[quote=Anonymous]FWIW, DD lived at home for a year after college--then moved in with friends. Not at all unusual. She did not have a job when she graduated--although she quickly got one and temped until she did. She saved money so that she did not have to go into debt. Nothing wrong with a kid living at home for awhile. If they are staying in the basement and sponging off the family, that is a different story. DD knew she was not going to do that here. It's only been a generation or so since it was the usual--rather than the unusual. My mom lived at home until she married. People lived at home because it was cheaper--it was economics. I have a friend (I think she is around 70) who turned her paycheck over to her mother and her mother gave her spending money. This woman was a college graduate. I don't think that was common even for her era--but it shows how things have changed. Economics.[/quote]
