Living with parents is indeed great especially when you're not actually living with them. You live alone. In-laws in another house, parents a mile away.

Living with family means sharing the actual facilities of the house not just technically being on the same property, or in a house where you never have to cross paths. Having parents in another house on the same property doesn't mean "living together" more than a neighbor on the other side of a 30cm wall is living with you.
