Comment on Why is living with your parents considered a bad thing?

The idea that if you’re still living at home that your parents are still taking care of you. That they still make your food, do you laundry, pay your bills, etc. there is also a stereotype that you’re emotionally stunted since you haven’t moved out and had to take care of yourself. This is often summarized in the neck beard living in his parents basement meme.
I’m not saying this is true, but that’s the idea.

Thats what they sell you, the real reason is that people living with their parents are not spending money in the house market.

Well, yeah, but there was a time when you could buy a brand new home for like $125.99, and at that point living at your parents house would have been weird.

No, that isn’t it
