Most of us，when we reached our teens，started looking forward to the day when we would occupy places of our own，far from the confines of our families.

Over the years，many millions of people have made this passage from one family to another，with just a brief，often nervous interval of independence in between. But recently，more and more people have begun to challenge the concept that living together is better than living alone.
