Key word there being ‘ideally’. People in general aren’t equipped to be fully independent, and often our relationships with ours parents are the most important (except, possibly, for our kids/spouses). Having kids does seem to be important, because it kinda migrates a person’s role from “child to a parent” to “parent of a child”. Still, complete independence is something I’ve never really seen.
