Actually I don't think it's that bad to be living with your parents/family because it just adds to each other's support system. The problem is if the parents are the only one helping/supporting the family and not vice versa. In most cultures - multigenerations live under one household and the overall happiness and health level is better for young and old. The older generation has lots of wisdom and experience to share with the younger generation. The young should be able to help support the family monetarily and via their strengths.
