| 11. You've hit the nail on the head |

Child support prevents many men from remaining independent after a divorce. Usually, the only way they can swing having their own place is by getting a roommate and sharing expenses.
On the other hand, many of the parents of these sons and daughters living at home, probably welcome the added income...particularly now. It would be interesting to study how family dynamics are changing due to the horrid economy today.

A 20 year old living at home is much different than a guy in his late 30's, so |
