We've a generation still living at home because they can't afford not to. Mother still sews for them.
For 'reports'; read 'stories'. I remember in the 70s the laments that 'teenagers were hopeless'. They are in their 50s now and believing the same stories.
Stories about 'x percentage of teens' obviously includes 13 and 14 year olds who are only a few years past believing in Santa.
You'll be amazed at the astronomical knowledge of everyone if you start to ask. But is it really useful knowledge?
