So, I think this section (and really the entire article in general) neglects to point out that here in Japan, it is quite common and often expected that people in the 20's will continue to live at home until they marry, freeter or not. contribs) 'Difficulties starting their own household' Section.Should freeter allud to fritter? -lysdexia 05:46, 15 December 2006 (UTC) -Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.233.215.204 ( talk Of course though, prepare for a freeter infection isn't all science armchair quality? I think I may well start up a site on this.ДЄs for problems with the article - it is poor sociology but the page is needed. Viewed as a lack of fulfillment is everyone a freeter to some degree? These people are smart and dormant, working and wasting in useless jobs, waiting for god-o. I agree that it is political too - look at non-voters. I can see it in everyone my father, my brother, travellers. It does seems to be borne out of idealistic views and lack of hope. Not something always specific to any age either.

It can expand into total hatred of the world.

If you were to remove all terminology with widespread use that originated from political purposes, you'd have to cull hundreds and hundreds of informative and useful pages from Wikipedia. For this alone, it strongly deserves to remain in Wikipedia. However, it is an extremely common term in Japanese, not a passing fad term. Shoehorn 05:47, 5 February 2006 (UTC) True, it does need sourcing. I'm not even sure if this article belongs on Wikipedia, it appears to be an attempt to create a cultural group where none may in fact exist, likely for political purposes. I have added the 'unsourced' tag to this article, as it appears to be mostly armchair sociology. Obviously that's my own personal experience and knowledge of high numbers of young people in the UK - so I can't cite anything AStaralfur 00:09, 25 August 2006 (UTC) How did you determine that this is a problem and not a revolution?

Because of the 'one child' policy that China has so strictly enforced, the population has decreased, thus the program was a success, but at what expense? The new generation of Chinese children, those born in the one child era, have started their adult life, but a surprising number have not followed in the footsteps of their parents. China is feeling this new generation is a bit on the lazy side.
