American parents on average may be less willing and financially able to support deadbeat adult children than their Chinese peers.

Deadbeat adult children? That’s definitely American thinking.

That’s why I tell people family isn’t #1 in America it’s like #3 or 4

[nradov]

Nonsense. Supporting adult children after they've finished education equates to putting family last, not first. Some youths need a forcing function to reach their full potential.

[b3ing]

People in other countries don’t do this. Some live at home until they are married

[s1artibartfast]

But they probably work while doing so.

There are massive numbers of unemployed college grads in US that would rather be unemployed than take a job they see as beneath them.

[nradov]

That's one of the reasons why most of those other countries have stagnant economies.

[oivey]

Bonkers to call college graduates deadbeats. These aren’t addicts or slackers. They had to have some level of achievement their whole lives and managed to finish a degree.

[laughing_man]

It's not bonkers if they refuse to work a job that isn't in their arbitrarily chosen field.
