jvw, I left home at 18 too. Never had the desire to go back either. I think that's why I'm perplexed by this phenomenon.

Dawn, I totally agree with you! Thanks for your support.

My opinion is that many young adults have a sense of entitlement that the "boomer" generation didn't have.
Also, a lot of them don't seem to possess the work ethic that we were brought up with.
A lot of them don't want to start at entry-level positions either.
They don't want to work their way up the ladder ...

We got to get back some old fashioned values in our American culture.
A little personal responsibilities & integrity, would go a long way in preventing our present economic crisis.

P.S.
I'm really glad your back wealthy_1
I missed you!

I moved out of my parents' house when I was 18. No...

I moved out of my parents' house when I was 18. Not because they didn't want me there anymore (quite the contrary), but because I wanted to go out into the world. I didn't have a lot of money, and I accrued some debt during that time, but I learned a ton about myself and the real world.

My sister, on the other hand, lived at home until she got married at 23. She moved out for college and then returned. I never really understood it. I know that was difficult for my parents as well.
