On-air: What’s wrong with living with your parents?

It could be economics. It could be cultural. But is it healthy? We’re talking about living at home with your parents as an adult. Doesn’t there come a stage and age when we should all flee the nest?

Talking Points: 15 April

20 years ago today, 96 football fans were crushed to death and hundreds more injured during a match at the Hillsborough stadium in Sheffield, England.

Before that, 66 Scottish fans died in a crush at the Ibrox Stadium in 1971, and a stampede killed 39 mostly Italian supporters at the European Cup final in the Heysel Stadium in Brussels in 1985.

Only last month at least 19 people died and more than 130 were injured in a stampede entering a FIFA World Cup qualifying match in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. It was the ninth time in ten years that fans have died in a soccer stadium disaster in Africa, and the second during qualifications for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

During the 2010 World Cup, South Africa will host games in Johannesburg’s Ellis Park, where 43 people were killed after being crushed against barbed wire during a stampede.

Why do so many people die at football games? Should stadiums be made safer? Or is it a problem with the sport and its fans?
