Normally when I pop in to see my parents, my mum bursts out of the house with a big smile. Not today. "Your brother," she says, "he's showered twice this afternoon. Does he know how much it costs to run this house?" Are we limiting water now? I didn't think the recession(萧条) had got that bad. My poor brother is a boomerang kid. Like 60 percent of guys immediately after university, he's back at home. Graduating ￡15,000 in debt and faced with unpaid internships(实习期) or low wages thanks to the flooding of the market with graduates, a lot of twenty some things simply don't have the necessary income or parental support to live independently.

Three years after getting their degree, most graduates are still not earning above the average salary. They have a near 50 percent tax burden, thanks to student loan repayments and council tax on top of income tax and national insurance. Unless you have parents who can afford to finance what is effectively a second home for them, returning to the parental nest is often the only affordable option.

The boomerang effect is becoming even more pronounced thanks to the recession. One in four of those losing their job during the downturn is under 25. Only 13 percent of final-year students have jobs. Home is the only place many are going: 111,000 16-29 year olds moved back home in 2008, five times the average of previous years.

Boomeranging is bad news. It poses serious problems for parents' finances. They've already supported their children through university, topping up loans with handouts, averaging ￡12,300 in total, to keep twenty somethings afloat. Now their retirement savings are being eaten away by continuously dependent children.

It’s bad for the returning kids too. Ambitious young people will be left frustrated, seeing their university peers from more wealthy backgrounds excel only because parents' money was there to support them through the initial period of poverty wages. Those living in rural areas are further disadvantaged by lack of access to cities where most new jobs are located. Half of all young people now feel they will not achieve their goals. Research by the Prince's Trust reveals that one-quarter of all 16-25 year olds are regularly down or depressed. And depression does not help self-motivation, the very trait needed to seek out job opportunities.

Dr. Scott Witt was at home with his family when he received a call from the hospital he works at informing him that they were going to evacuate(疏散) the patients because a deadly wildfire was spreading.

Witt decided to head to the hospital since he needed to make sure his patients were safe. He felt like these patients were like his own families. ＂The only way I could take was to get on my motorcycle,＂ said Witt, who failed to get to the hospital in his truck since the parts of the roads were closed off or impassable in big vehicles. ＂I had to avoid where the fire had spread to,＂ he said.

By the time he arrived, the fire was reaching the parking lot. The hospital already smelled with a lot of smoke and he wanted to move everybody to safety. With the hospital staff’s help, Witt managed to evacuate all his eight patients into an ambulance that rushed them to a nearby hospital. Even though Witt had done more than enough, he decided to follow the ambulance onto the freeway to make sure the patients would be made to the hospital. ＂At one point, there was some fire and live wire on the freeway,＂ Witt said. ＂After getting far away from the fire, I said to the ambulance driver, ‘I don’t know if it’s the most scary thing I’ve seen but close to it.'＂

After sending the patients to safety, Witt then went back to check on his home, which was burned to the ground by the time he got back. Fortunately, he was grateful his family was unharmed in spite of their blame.
