We are not alone. The phenomenon taking place here is also raging in the U.K. According to this survey of British home life,

Nearly one in ten parents have grown-up children

in four give regular financial help to their grown-up
children; 7 per cent don't get any financial contributions for the household from their adult children.

funding their grown up children's housing costs, by allowing them to
carry on living at home for free."
