Should adult children live with their parents?

WRONGMAN (US)

Independence is the critical milestone of young adulthood. It is my duty as a parent to push my daughter out of the nest, forcibly if necessary, when she graduates. We are trying to help her gain confidence and independence incrementally - dormitory life for the first year of college to subsidized (by us) apartment for the rest of the course. Although we pay the majority of her rent and utilities, she is expected to work part time for food money. If she chooses not to work . . . hunger is a strong motivator. She is also well aware that upon graduation she is on her own financially.
