Are you asking about the USA or some other group of countries? You typed parents. Are both necessary or is one parent and 0 to 9 other persons in the home ok? Did you intend to exclude situations in which the adult child is defacto head of the family? How many days per year is living at home? I'll guess ten million adult children in the USA, lived at home last year 30 nights or more. Almost half were in college or other training part or full time, part or all of last year. Neil |

A bit of trivia: In Japan, stay-at-home adult children are labelled "parasaito shinguru" or "parasite singles". http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/Parasite+singles |

I'm asking about the US only (although i loved the japanese translation of the term!) Don't care whetgher it's one or both parents in the home = de facto head of family isn't an issue either - i'm talking about situations where grown kid is dependent at least for shelter, etc., on parent...and am not talking about kids in college for some or all of the year or living at home while attending college at least part-time... |

The most reliable information I could find was an intergenerational survey conducted by Messineo and Wojtkiewicz (2004) that covered the decades 1960, 1970, 1980 and 1990 (but NOT 2000). In addition, Messineo and Wojtkiewicz surveyed 19-30 years-olds, not 21-34. Moreover, the data is presented in percentages, not in absolute numbers. In other words, there is no survey that answers your question exactly. Messineo and Wojtkiewicz found that there is a significant rise in the percentage of 19-30 year-olds who live with their paernts. [Note: your question is about to expire. If you'd like me to publish Messineo and Wojtkiewicz's findings and other information that I found on the subject, it might be necessary for you to re-post the question]. |
