It seems so many American teenagers and young adults think living at home is such a horrible thing. So many would rather be dead broke living on their own with a stupid job. I can understand some people are TOTALLY DEPENDENT on their parents to extreme levels, but some people just need to get off their feet. However, I just don't get that excited or horrified when I hear someone is over 20 and still living at home. Now, on the other hand, if they're not trying to do anything with their life, I just think they're scum!
Given that many jobs are being eliminated from this country, I think it would be unfair to brand people losers for not living on their own and having the ideal job. Unfortunately, many people don't seem to realize the good times are gone here and are still living in the past, when that attitude towards living at home might have been justified...
