Millennials who move home claim they’re ‘chasing the dream’

Familia es todos, mi amigo.
For those without a close knit family we don’t expect you to understand.

We just don't go overboard and can actually balance the two things.

Ah I love this game, guess who posted this drivel just by reading the thread title! And I win! And he even missed the point of the article just so he can moan about us some more! Ahhh is it my birthday? Feels like my birthday.

A person either cares more about their family or money. I just happen to rank my family as my #1 priority. I would sacrifice myself for them graciously if need be.

Yep, there are people that care more about money than people and their family.

Way to miss the point, but go you i guess

Young people living together with their parents? How fucking dare they?

The US culture of kicking the kids out as soon as they are 18 is fucked up. There is absolutely no shame in living with your parents.

It's a good thing the article isn't about that.

One of my daughters lived with us until she was 23, another 25, the last hasn’t left yet.

I never actually got this about US culture, when i told me mother i will move out she start crying and asked me what she did wrong, than she told me im doing a economic suicide and real life is not as nice as tv series and movies portrait it to be, god how right she was

To be fair to them, the term "move home" is a very odd wording, as it's usually used in the context of "moving *back* home (with their parents)" vs what the article is meaning "moving to a new home". Perhaps editing the title would help get the thread on track?

Or, crazy idea, read the article.

The article uses it as well, the title is technically accurate.. But reading the article clearly shows what they're discussing.

This is too bad. They should learn how to "chase the dream," while living on their own like their parents did. I'm not sure what we can do about it though since there are so many millennials doing it.

Young people are moving back in because the housing market is in an abysmal state still. Boomers were born into one of the most robust economies and housing markets in American history, which is why they were able to self-start at an unusually young age--at the time, a minimum-wage job could pay for a decent college degree and still have enough left over for necessities, and a family could be supported off of one office-worker job. Millennials grew up during the 2007/2008 economic crash and entered the job force in one of the worst economies in the nation's history, one which only started to pick itself back up near the second half of Obama's second term.

Context is very important if you don't want to sound like another grouchy middle-aged adult griping about these damn kids today.

Unsure if that's in-line with the game's goals.

Though you obviously misread, assuming the premise, I'd actually congratulate them for realizing that moving out and chasing the dream isn't likely going to bode well. Pretty much what Asians do.
