Being a parent or a child today looks nothing like it did in previous generations. Why? What's changed so much? How active a role should a parent take in their child's dating life? Does a child who becomes an adult now owe their parents the same money that their parents put into their upbringing? Does a child need to do everything their parents say until a certain age? Or until they move out? Should parents speak to their kids as friends? As authority figures? As psychologists? As something else? Should a single adult live on their own? Or with their parents until they get married? _x000D_
