No doubt lived in a dark basement room
wearing pajamas and spending all his time on the internet.

7. Daughter until she was 25 and graduated college
My older daughter, on and off, until she was 28, because on her salary she had to live with SOMEBODY. In fact, I will soon be moving in with HER, because I cannot afford to live on my salary either.

Sorry, living arrangments not relevant, especially in today's world.

23. lived in a dorm during college, moved out of parents' house (officially) on
21st birthday ... since then, I lived with my parents for a grand total of 2 weeks while moving from one job to another.

Now, my RW brother, two years my elder, lived in parents' home until he was 28, because he got married.

(who's the one living in Mommy's basement??? In this case, not literally)

I'm still married, celebrated 20 years this past May. He's been divorced for a couple of years now ... and he sent me yet another RW post just last night.

6. The real question here is did his parents know anything was wrong,
and if so, did they try to get help? Getting someone who's over the age of 18 into mental health treatment is practically impossible. If you can make your way through the insurance gauntlet, then you face the problem that it is very , very hard to get anyone committed. The current laws were put in place some 30 years ago to counter past abuses, but they tie the hands of thousands of families caring for adult children with mental illness.

24. Oh I disagree. IMHO George is an idiot. He totally buys into the
nonsense on his show.

Art Bell was a great interviewer, but he clearly did not buy into the wacko stuff he had on his show.

15. I had to move back in with my parents at the age of 34
After 10 years out. My ex left her 2nd husband and dumped my son and his oldest half-sister at her parents house in South Dakota to spend the summer on the Canadian highways with her new love... a Canadian truck driver 20 years older than her. She brought her infant daughter with her.

So I said "well, that's it then" and moved halfway across the country back into my parent's basement with my son.


I'd rather look at the circumstances. I know the loser mom's-basement-dwelling Freeper is fun to play around with in normal times, but lets remember that economic and familial hardship can make basement-dwelling adults out of non-losers, too! :-)

21. YES. Anybody who cannot afford their own place is a potential MURDERER.
Great point.
