Oh please. There would have to be very extenuating circumstances to make an adult go back home, for example staying at your parents place after living overseas, or becoming very ill and unable to take care of yourself.
I see people going back home to 'save money', which is a pitiful excuse. Do they not think their parents like having the house to themselves after countless years of raising kids?
What we're seeing is a new generation of useless people unable to stand on their own two feet.
Nobody asked you for a useless people discourse. You are avoiding my question. Let's say your assets are totally liquidated and after filing for bankruptcy, you're literally penniless even for the next meal. Would you rather be looking up with your parents or go beg in the highway ramp?
Now don't speak about how perfect and organized your life is that you will never face such a situation yada yada yada.
Growing up I'd always thought NO WAY. However, I moved my mentally disabled Mom in with me and my 20 year old recently moved back. As long as everyone involved has their own space and realizes life is a collaborative effort????? It is fine. Pull your own weight and if your ego is feeling bruised for any reason don't subconsciously place blame/anger on your parents.

Family is a support system. I have let family members stay with me for extended periods of time. It doesn't bother me, and it does not bother other member of my family either. We help each other.
Just because you don't agree with it, there are many other people in the world, and in the US who rely on their family.
Im movin out in december,I turned 18 in August and once I move out I can not see myself back here..why? Because Ive put my moms through a lot over the years with commiting crimes,causin mayhem,etc. I would feel guilty doin that though I havent did any of those things last 2 years or so Ive turned around,but still

As I stated, extenuating circumstances are different from simply deciding to move back home to mooch off Mum and Dad.
When we grow up and become adults we take care of ourselves. Maybe when you grow up you'll understand that concept

Its a sad reality, but more and more "kids" are doing it. I don't personally condone it. I think you should do your best to live on your own, they're are a few exceptions, obviously, but, just to save money, doesn't really cut it, IMHO.
I had to move back home, although I am only 27. I haven't had steady work in a year and a half now, and not moving back would mean being homeless & not eating. I don't see it as "mooching" because when I get income, then I contribute, and I plan on leaving ASAP. It's just a matter of obtaining steady work & finding an affordable apartment. My parents are the ones who told me to move back, even before I totally ran out of money.
So no, I don't judge people who move back home because circumstances make all the difference. If it's becoming more common, I see that as a sign that it's harder to make a living now, not that people are lazier.

I shall grow up and understand the concept thank you very much. But you're all grown and stuck up by brushing an entire group of people as useless, coz for whatever reason given the economic conditions they decide to lean on their parents, unlike you. You must be so blessed you should even be dropping gold nuggets when you poop. Damn us useless people.
All talk yet successful deflection from the question asked.
Even if situation drives you to beg on the highway ramp with a sign card?
Personally I cannot imagine a situation so dire I would have to choose between moving in with my mother or begging on the side of the highway. That's a pretty ridiculous comparison.
