Hoboken, NJ - (March 16, 2022) - The Covid-19 pandemic amplified an already emerging trend of extended childhood as many young adults moved back into their parents' homes. The milestones of adulthood have been shifting later in life as new cultural and economic trends emerge. Heavy student debt, the economy, healthcare, social pressures and expectations, and more make it harder for young people to reach their economic and lifestyle goals and have well-intentioned parents wanting to step in and help. However, the unintended consequences of supporting young adult children often puts the older generation's economic security and retirement at risk.
