Did you read the bottom half of the linked website?
It clearly states more alone time does not necessarily mean they’re lonelier as individuals.
Perhaps as a species this nuclear family model we have to start with should really be giving way in later life to more autonomy?
After 20+ years being parented and pushed into team work, is it so terrible to consider enabling free agency and experience?
What makes me sad is the idea there’s objective truth to living in what we know was often an abusive and stifling lifestyle for many many people.
The easy fix: don’t personally seek a holy war where one does not exist. As soon as we start wondering what to do top down, we start focusing on arbitrary correctness and ignore the individual. Cultural “facts” always lose to facts of physical reality. No culture has found that perfect social glue. Maybe it’s a mirage fed to us through historical story, not something that is real?

This is an entirely western or American POV. I have no idea if it came from media (movies/books telling us we should move out as soon as possible) or from advertising (because if you can get people to move out you sell more stuff. More housing, more cars, more every day appliances etc...)
In plenty of cultures there is ZERO stigma of not moving out of your birth home until you get married and that might not happen till your 30s or 40s. It's just normal.

That's my instinctive suspicion personally. The Western world has long devolved into having "CONSUME" blasted at you 24/7 from 360 degrees so I've no doubt that the above is any different.

In America it's relatively easy to move out so if you can't meet that bar it's seen as weird. In other countries it can be more difficult to so there's less pressure.
There's so much credit available for developers to build housing that it's widely available and affordable. Many countries do not have that kind of financial market.
He should be allowed to speak.
No one is obliged to listen.
Free agency supersedes speech. How is expecting anyone else to sit still any less fascist?
Common sense changes in time. It was perfectly common sense 13 colonies belonged to England.
It was perfectly common sense God created reality.
John Stuart Mill covered this in his writing about town drunks; cannot stop biology.
Emit whatever syntax sure. Being owed others to bend their agency to listen or act in accordance with the speech is nonsense.
