Don't they have any self-respect and desire to be on their own?

Cripes, my wife and I got married >10 years ago while I was on summer break in grad school and have been on our own since. I wouldn't even think of moving back under her parents' (or mine's) roof. Ever. Unless the world got nuked and we had literally nowhere else to go. I'd find it demoralizing and frankly I'd be embarrassed.

I can understand a temporary arrangement (maybe) in tough times, but that's not what's going on here. The whole thing about marriage is it's supposed to be about being all for one another - and that includes getting out on your own and not living out of mommy & daddy's basement.

Sorry, but I doubt I could look at myself in the morning if I took advantage of my family like that.
