El impacto de la ayuda financiera familiar en la juventud estadounidense

La dependencia de los jóvenes adultos en Estados Unidos de la ayuda económica familiar ha aumentado significativamente, con casi la mitad de los adultos entre 18 y 29 años recibiendo apoyo para gastos esenciales. Esta tendencia se ha visto impulsada por el aumento de la deuda estudiantil y los altos costos de vida, lo que dificulta la independencia financiera.
