These days, many young people still live with their families even after finishing their education. This essay will argue that this is mainly due to unemployment among young adults, and that it is a negative development because their parents still have to take care of them.
The main reason for this is that in today’s world it is difficult to secure a good job. This is largely because AI has already started to eliminate jobs and the remaining ones require expertise in the field. As a result, many individuals have lost their work and young people compete with each other to get employed. A case in point is the X, before Elon Musk bought it over a hundred people used to work there but due to AI now only a handful of people manage the company. Clearly, the younger generation is stuck with their parents even after completing their education since they struggle to find a job.
In my view, this is a negative development. The most compelling reason is that young adults become a financial problem for their families. While it is true that, living under the same roof does not require more financial power, this overlooks the fact that in the long term it harms family’s economy. For instance, as parents grow older they tend to retire early which makes sustaining an extra person more difficult. It is therefore clear that young adults who live with their parents put more burden on their parent’s shoulders.
Overall, the fact that young people continue to reside among their familes is mainly due to unemployment crisis, and I believe it is a negative development, since families struggle to support them.
