Haha, I think the older you get and the longer you stay at home, the crazier your parents get. I bought a house with my ex and that didn't quite work out so I'm back at home again (parents weren't super thrilled about all the tanks), but they're still just as crazy as the day I moved out a couple years ago. Now, if I'm in the basement (were my room and tanks are) for more than a few hours, my mom comes and checks on me to see if "the fish got me" (I have a stone fish)

If your parents started to walk around the house naked, would that be crazy enough to get you guys to move out? Just askin

Umm, I'm usually not home or in the basement, and my mom really only comes down there once in a while. The thing you have to figure out before you start that war is, how far will your kids go and how far are you willing to go? Have you ever seen war of the roses? Haha
