    Yes I still do. It seems that I will not be able to move out for a long time as it is so expensive to live on your own

    I'd love to move out but studying full time and only working weekends means I don't really make enough money to live away. But the money I do save I can spend on other things which I enjoy.

    if you cant afford it, you dont have a choice really...
    but stay for as long as you can (assuming you are not older than 24!)- and save the extra money for when you do move out.
    I live on my own now, but I did have to pay some rent to my mum when i was living there, but obviously not as much as living on your own!

    I don't live with my parents but that's because they're in another country!

    I live with my parents :mad:, wouldn't be had I not failed both my summer business studies exams last year at sixth form, 3 marks from a C which would have seen me flutter across the border to Edinburgh.

    I live with my partner, who is very kind to let me live here without contributing to the mortgage. I just pay half of all the bills.

    I lived in student halls in first year of university.

    I couldn't go back and live with my mum again!!! But at the same time, if my partner and I split up, I'd have to until I could find a flat in Leeds (where I go to uni) :(
