Nearly a million more young adults now live with parents

Nearly a million more young adults now live with parents – study

Is this down to a hard financial environment or young ones thinking everything should be provided ?

 

[Teed]

Don't worry this should balance the books.

 

[Discopants91]

Early twenties is kind of understandable now but anything north of that is still a bit tragic.

Why can't they be like the proper old lads who worked in factory's, downed 10 pints a night, smoked 50 tabs a day and had a house paid off on the wages of one person.

Cos it's crippling hard to get on the property ladder or just afford rent. People are much more likely to be single nowadays than they were 20 years ago aswell so less likely to have 2 incomes etc.

Not that difficult to understand if someone has gone to University from College / Sixth Form, You then have to find a job at the end of your degree and begin saving with probably significant debt that has ammounted from Uni aswell that will need paying off.

From what I can gather through films, the baby boomers were out every weekend with their sharp tailoring and pills and shiny scooters. So what gives eh?

I don't think it's fair to say "All younguns" but I'd say that's true of a fair percentage.

I feel for the ones who leave home, say to go to Uni, and then have to come back and live at home because they can't afford a place of their own.
And to be fair the ones who can't leave home because they don't earn enough yet to support themselves on their own

How many posters still live with their parents?

 

[LondonMackem]

It’s because the young of today get a fancy coffee from Starbucks on the way to work every morning. In the old days people didn’t drink coffee.
