参考答案: Every young adult will grow up and live apart from their parents to form their own families. Some people may prefer to live longer with their parents and some others may not.
Most young adults prefer to have an independent life from their parents or families as early as possible. This is because they have a strong urge for freedom in doing what they desire. But in fact many have failed. This should not be surprising since often they are actually not ready mentally although they are physically ready. It is widely understood that to live independently requires a lot of energy and is not easy at all. Nowadays people may need to be better prepared due to the ever-increasing competition. Moreover, many young adults are unemployed, and thus will not be able to support and fulfill their necessities. So living independently at an early age is not suitable for all young adults, some may need to take more time to prepare themselves. Young adults need to be ready to support themselves. Taking time to get more education and living with their families for a longer time may lead them to a better independent life because they will be well prepared for the hard-life outside. Still, living with their families for “too” long will not be a good idea because they could get used to it and tend to be less independent.
The time to live independently depends on the person himself. If a person judges that he is capable of fulfilling his needs without being dependent on his parents, he is ready for his independent life. Otherwise he might need to stay longer with his parents.
