> individualism and dissolution of family ties/units historically families were keeping together, helping each other. for example during wwii germans could exterminate whole polish families because parents, grandparents, uncles etc were helping kids buy out flats in the same building, so you had whole intergenerational families living in one place. western consumptionism, greedy rat race, individualism has resulted in pressure to obtain your own, and if you can't, you're failure, so parents too found it disappointing when their kids weren't able to get own place, forgetting that previously mentioned bureaucracy and inflation created environment in which you can't afford buying anything this early, and you aren't allowed to build it yourself without thousands papers, saafety check etc. for example i can afford to buy own flat without mortgage only now, in my early 30s, when i should already have kid or two, but women often think that anyone who doesn't have own place in their 30s is loser. this leads to most people who buy their places to actually living in them, are slaves to the banks, propping up leeches via interest rates, taking even bigger burden on themselves than already high cost of houssing. people complain about lack of kindergardens because you no longer have close ties with grandparents to offload kids to them, or you live away enough to make constant dropping/picking up kids impractical. people also no longer meet through families, dating at work is generally bad idea, so people simply don't have as many opportunities to meet. many people just live on autopilot through routine of work > shop > home, especially if they aren't type that would go to parties on the weekend. dating has moved to internet which has massive problems. 3/?
