At What Age Did You Move Out Of Mummy And Daddys?

Prudent

18-25

I went to uni and mainly worked away from home in the summer holidays. I rented for about 6 -9 months after graduating and then bought a flat.

My 19 year old dd has just got a job in London and is leaving next week. I am very pleased for her because it is a good job, but very very sad that she is going so far away. I worked my summers in London when I was at uni and it never occurred to me that it must have been hard for my mum.

I moved out when I was 10. I'd got fed up with being stuck up chimneys.

A few posters on here pushing 30 seem to see it fit and acceptable to live in their parents house under their wings. Absolutely scandalous. Do their parents not deserve their own lifes? Thank you.

Would living with your parents at 35 or moving out at 18 into a bin be more or less embarrassing to you ? I dont think age is relevant tbh I think its where your moving out to is the important thing

P.S EPIC first post btw ... not :T if only it was a slow clap

I actually agree the op on this.

I left my parents at 15 and never looked back. I could not imagine having lived with them for another 10 or 15 years oh nooooo.

A lot of people selfishly use their parents to give themselves a head start in life. It must p*ss the parents off having to support a grown adult (talking 30's) into their own twilight years in life - but I doubt anyone would have the nerve to say it for fear of getting flamed on here. I can understand uni students living at home til courses finish etc, but the likes of those living cheaply with mummy and daddy so they can save up..what's that all about. I mean how much more do these 'kids' want from their parents??Blood??

I have a teenage lad, and if he was still living at home approaching 30, I would never kick him out on to the streets , but I would certainly give him a nudge/help him find alternative accomodation.I am not going to be around forever, and have always brought my lad up to be independant.

It is not healthy to be reliant on your parents all your life and take take take all they are willing to give. I am sorry if some people find my opinion to be strange, and don't take it personally, it is just that=my opinion. I'm not saying it is factual.

I've seen it from the other side as well, where an aquaintance of mine over-stayed at home, and ended up never leaving and becoming carers of two elderly infirm parents.He never left, he actually died well before one of his parents due to the stres of being a carer and the only breadwinner.

I assume you are attempting to be patronising to myself? Excuse me, I didn't start this thread.

Just because someone doesn't like the content of a newbies post, doesn't mean they need to start hurling insults around like 'saddo'. No one is forced to click on any threads.

I think the op has a valid point. I really don't understand why people are on the offensive over this.
