A 'multi-generational' household is defined as one that includes 2 or more adult generations and/or children living with grandparents. Do you live in a multi-generational household?

Not right now, but I did as a kid. My grandparents raised & adopted me. My mom moved back in with us when I was about 12.

Yes. My mother, my wife and I, and our 3 kids. Age range in our house goes from 4 to 73.

I did until 2012 when my grandmother died.

No, and I don't think I'd want to, because two of us in here seems plenty. We had houseguests that included two generations spread across three extra bodies a few weeks ago, and a house built for two gets pretty crowded when it is full to the scuppers with five.

No, but they're very common in the Arab world.

Not yet. We'll see what happens after my kids graduate from college.

My mother was living with us for several years unfortunately it was a very stressful time as she had dementia.

We put her in a place only when we had no choice. We didn't want to but it was the right decision after a flood and two small fires she caused. When I think of it I am amazed worse didn't happen. I died a little each day. Difficult years.

No, but I made a bunch of maps about multigenerational households! The trends are pretty interesting.

Our Kids so 4 generations. It's the best our kids learned so much and love their grandmothers.

Does my dead skin (aka dust) count as a previous generation? 😝
