> a lot of people are at school / university and likely "funded" by their parents

That's true only for kids of upper middle class families, and thus a vanishing component for a whole-workforce number like this. Kids of families whose parents bring home something close to the median household income ($70k or so) are not being "funded" at school in any meaningful way, certainly not at a number comparable to employment.
