How & When did you move of Parents

Post Reply New Topic

I want to move out, but I need money to do that, and it's easier said than done, but I think I might possibly be ready if I don't live far from my parents!

I got my first apartment at 23 and it was great only cost me $100 a week.
My mom was in no hurry to force me out which is good since it took awhile to save enough to do so.

At the age of seventeen in order to attend university, or at least I was there most of the time anyway. During holidays, however, I had no option than to live with my parents.

It was when I found a job, almost right away after graduating, that I was able to move out permanently. My mother tried to find all the ways she possibly could to prevent me getting out, but I was highly assertive at resisting these because I simply wasn't able to handle living with my parents.

Yet I had been told that if I was to leave school and not go to university, I was getting shown the door at 16. In retrospect I would have been vulnerable out there in the world on my own, yet due to an emotionally abusive father in particular I would have been quite happy with that option.

I bought my first house at 22 and moved out of my parents house a few months later. 16 years later, I still live in it.
