NEVER lived away from mom and dad?

Post Reply New Topic

Outside of college dorms for awhile, I've never lived away from home. Anybody else like this?

I've never lived away from home either. Life with my parents and younger brother is idyllic - we all get along very well and are doing well financially. I do wish that I could drive and have a job though, so I could at least get out of the house more. As of now, I typically only leave the house twice a week - on my mom's two days off from work.

I moved out once for 3 months when I was 20 but that didn't work out since I had no income so I moved back home and have been there ever since.

I never lived away from home for a few different reasons. I have some physical disabilities in addition to my AS that make it very difficult for me to find a job. I'm also very dependent because of my disabilities. The docs were not aware of them or my AS when I was little so I had lots of problems learning to do things like most people so my family & others kept doing things for me instead of teaching me. I think I could learn a lot if I was in a different environment but I would NOT want to live alone even if I was more independent & found a job so I could afford to. My ideal situation would be to live with a girlfriend/'wife/partner if any women here are interested

Nope, never.

I didn't move out until I was 32. I had a very close relationship with my family and I wanted to be with my dog.

No unfortunately I never have.

I've never lived away from my parents, either.

I'm still a minor (16) so I live with my parents, but I plan to move out either when I go to university (if it's far away/out of state; I'm considering Emory University, which is like 20 min. away) or when I graduate from it, if I end up going somewhere somewhat near my house. Who knows how that will work out, though. I'm trying to learn more independence skills (I should have gotten my driver's permit over a year ago and my license two months ago, but I was too lazy; I do want to do it soon, though) and I'm also starting to look for my first job. I hope it works out.

I haven't lived away from home either.

Moved out to get married 25 years ago. My mother lived with me in the early 2000's for a couple of years. I couldn't take that for long. Now she lives across the main road.

I lived with my mother collectively for 10 years of my life. The first 9 years of my life, then for a year when I turned 18. The rest of my adolescence was spent in foster care where half the time I was in a shelter and not with a family. I've not live with family since I was 19.

I have not.

I would love to one day. Loved living in dorms minus loud roommates.

I lived on my own a bit, but kept visiting my parents. I'm living with my parents now, it's cheaper and allows me to save money. Also, I always visited my parents frequently due to my mother's poor health, so now I can just walk over and check on her, instead of having to drive from where i was living.

I've stayed a few weeks at a time away from home but still officially live with my parents. I can't wait to get out though.
