Abstract
Reports on the recent study “The Stay at Home Generation” from Vegas, the youth market research division of Synovate; it is based on in‐depth interviews with young adults in the UK, the USA and Canada. Outlines results from the Survey of English Housing which show that no fewer than 58 per cent of Englishmen aged 20‐24 live at home with their parents, as do 42 per cent of Englishwomen the same age, while 6.8 million people aged over 18 live at home and include working‐class youth, students and ex‐students alike. Discounts the explanation for this that young people cannot afford their own homes. Points out instead that the average number of children per female has fallen to 1.5, and that the divorce rate has increased: these changes, which are producing “beanpole” families in place of the traditional family tree, encourage parents to devote far more attention to their children and to create home environments that are hard to leave. Concludes that, as a result, today’s young people are much less mature and independent than the previous generation, and less rebellious also; parents now aspire to be their children’s best friends and opinion formers, and are likely to be involved in their children’s purchases.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
