On behalf of my parents, they have one at home and one flown. I finished college but couldn't find a job, then couldn't find a decent job, and finally found a decent job but went back to school, so I'm (gulp) 29 and still here. I pay rent, my own car expenses, have health insurance through work, etc., and they are not helping me with school expenses this time. I'm not thrilled to be at home still but it seems to be what I have to do to stay ahead. My mother also has some physical limitations so it's helpful to Dad to have another ablebodied person around to housework, yard work, housesit if they travel, etc. But I'm single, childless, and pet-less, and try to do things on their schedule.

My younger brother is married and he and his wife are graduate students.
