Sanford & Son syndrome is when a man or a woman is in their 30s and still lives with their parents due to the parents being controlling during childhood and then later depending on the child when the parent becomes of elderly age, and the child does not have much of a social life due to the overbearing parent.
Sanford & Son is a sitcom from the 1970s from 1972-1977, starring Redd Foxx, and Demond Wilson. The characters in the show do not entirely reflect the word and it's definition, however the similarities fit the narrative of the word and it's definition.

Example A: Person A is 34 years old, and still lives with his parents, who treat him like a child/teenager.

To have a favorite broken heart, means that you have one specific ex-boy/girlfriend, in which you are still friends with, or would like to be on good terms with, and think of the relationship as only a memory. You may feel sympathy for the breakup, and this person might still be in love with you, even if both of you have moved on, however you do not want to get back together with this person, and you wish this person nothing but the best. To go more into depth on what this means, it means that you have already moved on from this person, but you are thankful for the relationship and the fact that you experienced it with them, and you are always willing to maintain a healthy friendship.
If this doesn't make sense, think about this:
You have a boyfriend/girlfriend. The relationship is cool, and then you guys break up. You remember the relationship, and you are thankful that the relationship is over, but you are also thankful that you went through it, too, because you may have learned a lesson from the relationship, or you love how smooth things were going, DURING the relationship.
You can only have one, favorite broken heart. You would be willing to go through it all again, also.
It's like reading a good book, with a terrible ending.
This term, actually comes from the song by Tiffany Evans, "Favorite Broken Heart".
