    To be fair people have lived in multi-generational households for most of history and still do in a lot of the world. Wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world to be a little bit more connected.

      While yes I get it, a lot of times in those communities moving out is still an option. People just don’t take it as often because it allows you to save easier. The problem now is it’s either “live at home, or move out and starve”, that’s not a pros and cons situation, that’s being held hostage by “investors”

      from all the people who grew up in dysfunctional families. NO, it’s a really bad idea. Blood relation is worth jack shit.

      Sounds great unless you don’t really agree with them, and then you’re forced to stay with people that you are constantly arguing with, often without much of the outlet of other places to go that a lot of places that have had multi generational households have had.

        Honestly, I believe in the three place theory. You need 3 places, one a home where you spend time with your family, one work where you earn money to support your life, and a third place to relax and relieve stress.
