- toasterlovin 9y agoThere is no circumstance in which elderly living with their children is more expensive than living on their own. Having one rent in stead of two is a huge cost savings.
- eropple 9y agoA larger apartment in the urban area where I live is significantly more expensive than my mother living in a rural area with her family.
- DigitalJack 9y agoLiving together takes care of a major expense. There are 125 Million homes in america. There are 0.5 Million homeless. Maybe we should start a foster-care system for homeless like we do orphans. I'd bet that < 10% of homeless would be willing to participate even if there were enough households willing to host. But, that doesn't mean we should ignore those 10%. Elder-care is a whole different story. Especially in later stages of life.
