I don't think we should incentivise single family homes but I also thing people shouldn't be stuck living under the ownership of their parents. You know it won't be an equal relationship even after age 18 the dominate continues as long as the dependence does

yeah, i recognize the problem of power imbalance. in fact, i recommend people sleeping at their aunt/uncle's house for that reason, because there's not so much of a power imbalance. just an idea ;-)

Yeah. This is ignoring the fact that not only did they live in the same house, but also the adults used to have the absolute authority over their children. Living standards changed and it's okay. Even now, my parents dread me living with them as an adult because that would mean me never becoming fully independent.
