  As someone in this living arrangement, no. I hate it and every day I wish I could move out.
context: Father inlaw currently lives in our house, I liked it a lot more when he didn't. For the record, I like the guy. LoL. >
  
  Same >
  
  Nothing strengthened the relationship with my parents more than moving out. I know they missed me and always made it clear I could go back, but I needed my own space, my own place to live my own way and build my own life. I talked to them more when I moved out than I did living at home. >
  
  There is a very specific growth you experience living in your own.
  Tbh, I think some people in other countries like asia and europe are missing out. 
  Being a tight knit medium large sized family unit is special in its own right.
  But I just think the growth one physically and mentally feels after moving out cant be compared to other experiences. >
  
  What do you mean with Europe? At least where I live people move out of their parents homes, it may not be as fast as possible, but they do, and I wanted to move out fast >
  
  I always see Europeans be like "There's nothing wrong with living at home until your mid 30's, it's just smart to never become independent and save money, and people who are independent are just wasting money" >
  
  It's less a cultural thing and more an economic thing. If we could easily afford our own places then we'd he out within a month. But rent is so high you either need a lot of roommates and a partner to save up for a house or you need to live rent free at home for several years >
  
  Who gets to live at home rent free? >
  
  People with loving and understanding parents? >
  
  To be fair the reason many grand parents like their grandkids is because they get to send them home. The reason kids are more comfortable talking to their grandparents is because grandparents are usually not discipliners. If you put them all in the same house dynamics will change. >
  
  I don't think this is necessarily true. It maybe if the parents wash their hands off parenting their kids and hand it over to the grandparents, but imagine if all roles are maintained as such, then it would only be additional support. >
  
  Right but at the same time living with your parents and your grandparents creates that dynamic.  You think living with your parents who impart some trauma from their upbringing onto you was bad? Well here’s the people who caused that to them, living with you. >
  
  I agree, it's not the best experience to live with a grandparent. Especially when the reason is money concerns and not the fact that they get along well with your parent. It creates such a weird dynamic especially if said grandparent is strict, than they try to parent you and it ruins family relationships and dynamics. >
  
  I mean no one should be shamed for living with their family even as an adult but honestly I couldn't. I need more privacy than that >
  
  Fuck that. I'd rather live in my own, in a shed >
  
  Shrek? >
  
  I agree. I don't see anything wrong with it. It doesn't work for everyone though. My family was abusive. I got out asap. If we were multi generational in one house physical fights would still be breaking out. >
  
  I am really surprised I'm getting that many upvotes
