Adult children living at home longer

CBC News: Adult children living at home longer: "They're called 'boomerang' offspring, meaning they left home once, but have since moved back in. Perhaps surprisingly, most parents say they like living with their grownup children."


Isn't that what basements are for? When your grown children lose their jobs they live in your basement? What if you don't have a basement? Well then it's their childhood room, which you left intact. Besides, converting it into a den or a media room costs too much. Who has money for big screen plasma TVs? Then when you're old and have no health insurance, you can move in with your grown children and their spouses. Oh? They already live with you? You should have bought a duplex.
