(July 2019 The great recession is in the past but many still live together after experiencing the advantages. Those who were hurt by the problems with the job market and high student debt still may live with family members for several years.) (2009)The poor economy is changing the way many people live their lives. For some, the positives may outweigh the negatives. Families are moving in together, with multiple generations in one household for economic reasons. Americans tend to be independent and want to live on their own but in some other cultures, it is normal for multiple generations to live together in a house. Multiple generations living together can have many benefits if they get along. 1. Sharing expenses. 2. Shared child care. 3. Senior citizens are not alone and are kept busy.Someone can help them if needed. 4. Many things can be shared to make life easier depending on the people themselves. 5. A supportive environment.
