Everything from parents kicking their kids out or charging them rent at 18 (or ever) to anecdotes from North American friends of how they got pushed out of home to pay rent while in university. The endless lectures of Dave Ramsey on not wanting to provide a "hammock" for kids are also an abundant source of information. North American parents won't consistently have a college fund for their kids. Also planning to pay for the down payment on their home is absolutely not normal for them.
