Court Orders Father to Pay for Upkeep of 28-Year-Old Son

April 27, 2016 Leave a Comment

Nick Squires writes on The Telegraph: “An Italian court has ordered a middle-aged father to keep supporting his 28-year-old son through university, after he turned to the law to try and force his offspring to get a job. The case underlines the country’s problem with ‘bamboccioni’ – spoilt ‘big babies’ who refuse to leave home and instead sponge off their parents.” In court, his father stated: “He does not deserve any further financial support, having made no effort to find work to support himself.” But the court still ruled that the father needs to support his son as Italians are notorious for staying at home with their parents until they marry, even into their forties. Many countries including the U.S. are dealing with the phenomenon of boomeranging – adult children forced to return to live at home after losing their jobs or taking drastic pay. In societies where it is common for children to live with their parents into adulthood such as Asian, children normally take care of aging parents rather than delegating the task to a nursing home. Whether the Boomerang Generation will follow suit remains to be seen.
