Young adults still need help of mom and dad

BEIJING - Nearly four in 10 college-educated young adults in big cities are failing to make ends meet, a recent survey has reported.

Thirty-eight percent of young adults working in big cities say they have to ask their parents for money and 86.6 percent say they are suffering from living pressures, according to survey results released by the social survey center of China Youth Daily.

The multi-choice survey polled 4,687 people on www.minyi.net.cn, a major online survey center in China. The respondents do not belong to the "NEET" group, which means people "not in education, employment or training". Instead, all of them have received a college education and are currently employed.
