A discussion about the historic rise and social impact of young adults deciding to live with their parents, instead of on their own.
Tonight, Dr. Phil discusses the historic rise, and social impact of young adults deciding to live with their parents, instead of on their own. Dr. Phil will speak with a 24-year-old woman who defends living with her mother rent-free, as well as her mother who claims allowing her adult daughter to be her roommate is a way to set her up for success. The debate begins when Dr. Phil introduces well-known podcaster, Jennifer Cohen, who claims parents who allow their grown children to live at home, are keeping them from becoming competent and mentally resilient adults. Dr. Phil will also speak with a 27-year-old young woman who says she has never left home and claims the very thought of facing the world on her own terrifies her, and at times, causes paralyzing anxiety.
