ménage à beaucoup

read this. i am flabbergasted.

in summary:
two married couples who have their own apartments together with their offspring and another adult sibling squash themselves and a live-in helper into their parents' three bedroom apartment and happily babble about the cozy convenience of family support and home cooked meals.

i say this is pure exploitation of elderly parents by adult children who need to leave the nest to make their own mistakes forge their own identities and build their own sanctuaries.
