在不同的國家,年輕人離開父母家的年齡驚人地不同
It’s a tearful but joyous moment when your baby birds (your children) finally fly out of the nest, move out of the family home, and start making it on their own. Or rather, it would be a tearful but joyous moment if it actually happened.
當(dāng)你的雛鳥(你的孩子)終于飛出了巢,離開了家,開始獨(dú)立生活時,那是一個含淚而又歡樂的時刻。或者更確切地說,如果它真的發(fā)生了,那將是一個含淚而又歡樂的時刻。
The reality is, however, that history appears to be repeating itself. In the West — Europe, the United States, Australia, etc. — more and more youngsters choose to live with their parents and move out of their family homes far later than usual. Just like in the days of yore. Bored Panda reached out to Andrea Breen, an Associate Professor at the Department of Family Relations and Applied Nutrition at the University of Guelph, about the phenomenon, so scroll down to read the full interview.
然而,現(xiàn)實(shí)是,歷史似乎正在重演。在西方——歐洲、美國、澳大利亞等——越來越多的年輕人選擇與父母同住,并比平常晚得多才搬出自己的家。就像以前一樣。Bored Panda就這一現(xiàn)象聯(lián)系了圭爾夫大學(xué)家庭關(guān)系與應(yīng)用營養(yǎng)學(xué)系的副教授安德里亞·布林,所以向下滾動查看完整的采訪。
According to Breen from the University of Guelph, “economic necessity is a key reason” why kids live with their parents for longer. “More and more families need to combine incomes in order to afford basic necessitates, including housing, food, healthcare, and access to education. Economic necessity is driving young adults to stay in (or return to) their parents’ homes and it is also an important factor in many older adults moving in with their adult children (also an important related trend).”
根據(jù)蓋爾夫大學(xué)的布林的說法,“經(jīng)濟(jì)上的需要是一個關(guān)鍵的原因”,為什么孩子和父母住在一起的時間更長。他說:“越來越多的家庭需要把收入結(jié)合起來,以支付基本的生活必需品,包括住房、食品、醫(yī)療和教育。經(jīng)濟(jì)上的需要促使年輕人留在(或回到)父母的家里,這也是許多老年人與成年子女同住的一個重要因素(也是一個重要的相關(guān)趨勢)。”

According to Eurostat’s 2018 data, the average age across the European Union when young people leave their parents’ homes is more than 25 years old. In 2017, Eurostat showed that 35.3 percent of 25 to 34-year-old men were still living at home, compared to 21.7 percent of women of the same age group. The smallest percentage of young people living with their parents was found in Denmark (3.2 percent), Finland (4.7 percent), and Sweden (6 percent). While the highest was in Croatia (59.7 percent), Slovakia (57 percent), and Greece (56.3 percent).
歐盟統(tǒng)計(jì)局 2018年的數(shù)據(jù)顯示,歐盟年輕人離開父母家的平均年齡超過25歲。2017年,歐盟統(tǒng)計(jì)局的數(shù)據(jù)顯示,在25歲至34歲的男性中,35.3%的人仍然住在家里,而同一年齡段的女性中,這一比例為21.7%。與父母同住的年輕人比例最小的是丹麥(3.2%)、芬蘭(4.7%)和瑞典(6%)。克羅地亞(59.7%)、斯洛伐克(57%)和希臘(56.3%)的失業(yè)率最高。
Meanwhile, Statista’s 2018 data shows that the average age when ‘youngsters’ from Montenegro left their family homes was 32.8. Croatians are in second place with an average age of 31.8; Slovakians are third with 30.9; Italians come right after that with 30.1.
