This is horrible; I didn’t realize it was so widespread internationally.
I see this more with progressive and liberal families in our suburban area. We live in a pretty wealthy area, and at one point, there were four families ON OUR STREET who had college educated, capable kids in their mid to late 20s living in their basements.

My own kids are in elementary, middle & graduating high school next year.
Thus far, they have had jobs as soon as they are able (13-14), are eager to drive the moment they are legal (unlike some of their peers !?!?), & say they want families one day. 🙏
My husband and I are trying our best not to coddle them by ensuring that they do their fair share of chores, by withholding mobile phones (& social media drivel) until they are in their middle teens, and actively engaging them in conversations about the controversial topics to which they exposed. We want to be sure to dialog about the other sides of the issues that they are not likely to hear at school regarding “climate change “, gender craziness, woke culture, etc.
Perhaps, most importantly, we are cognizant to show them how much we enjoy our life because we want them to consider something similar.
I want them to see how delightful it can be to be married to one person for a long time, hopefully have children, establish and cultivate a warm home environment, work hard, and enjoy each other and our community.
**shudder**
