Living with parents

I'm 21, i live at home with my olds and brother

I must say i have it very good, no rent to pay, or bills (though when i have the cash i'll help pay bills and grocery shopping). I would like to move out, though i'd like to take my whole room with me, i have a sweet setup. Though it's a bit hard moving a while room into a house or flat hehe.
 
im 18 and still live at home.
im the middle of vce exams at the moment. still not sure wat im going to do in the future. maybe hang around for a couple years then move out. who knows
 
Im 20 and I live on my own with my older brother have since I was 16, Id die to have my parents aroound and to live with them.. the security to have some one to look after you 80% of the time.. I forget the feeling..

I love living my brother we do have our problems but I do what I want when I want.. and so forth...
 
i had the great joy of having to move back home 12 months ago
i relised i had ot get out of here when i was 21 and i managed ot do it on and off for a while til i finaly found my own place it was a great little place to call my own

then i had to go and tell the pa tot the ceo to get fucked and threatand to sue the company i worked for because she made my work plce a living hell. good bye job good bye my fab little house in newtown :(

so im 12 months back at home and although havent killed my step dad im still suprised the police havent been called by the nabours because of the fights we get into

now i ment to start my new job this week and i give it another month till i can be out of home again
fingers crossed
if not i'll be saving every penni i have and getting the fuc out of this country
 
Yeah i still live @ home....

Stayed @ home longer due to going to uni in home town so lived with Mom to save cash...then moved to Melbs after that...moved back here (Wagga Wagga) a year ago...i'm 23 now....thinking of my own place now tho...

Was going to be moving back to Melbourne in March with a mate, but that is on hold now due to me finding a full-time job in my chosen field of Graphic Design here in WW....so I will be staying here for i guess another year...which is depressing, but i have optimism for the coming year...i'll have more money and be getting decks very soon....so my plan over the next year....ok now i'm off topic...

Yes, i live @ home with my mom :D

so, to make this post legal...

i still live at home as i mentioned earlier... i just want to finish studying for these stupid exams so they can stop telling me that i shouldn't go out becasue i should be at home studying. They're right, and i dislike that i know that which renders me wrong.

Whee..I'm 18 and I'm still living at home.

No real need for me to move out anytime soon, especially during the middle of year 12 exams. Besides, my parents are always laid back people so It's never really an issue.

Uni will be close (just a busride away) so I won't even need to move for that.
 
19, still live at home, couldnt afford to move out if i really wanted to, but dont mind home.... im a mums boy, i love my mum to bits, and my dads really cool..... plus i dont think i could ever leave the family dog.... i spend one day away from home and i start to miss him
 
I'm 20 and have lived away from home since I was 17... I had no choice but to move out since I wanted to come to uni...

I live in student accomodation, and have done for the past 3 years, although in 3-4 weeks I am moving out into a rental house with luck...

I could not live with my parents at this point of my life. I lived with them for 3 months over the last summer break so I could work in my home town, and save some money not paying for rent. It drove me absolutely insane. After 2 years of having to answer to nobody, it was very difficult living under the same roof as my parents. My mum couldn't understand why I wanted to have a beer when I got home from work, and would question my every move like I was a kid again... If I wanted to drive to visit friends 100km away and stay there the weekend and not know when I was getting back, I was going to do that! And my mum couldn't really accept that.

To be honest, I don't really ever miss 'home' all that much... except for when I'm sick, and then I do...

I am looking forward to moving out with bf and friends at the end of this semester though... living in a flat where some of your flat mates don't even say hi when they pass you in the hall can be a little tiring...

Living in a house where ur family does the same is worse hun ;)

Thankfully the offenders of this crime have moved out. I dont really like living at home but did it because i wanted to go to uni. I dont want to anymore. Its time to go.
 
I'm 22 and have been living away from home since I was 18 (to go to uni). Since then I've lived in various share houses & had a crazy assortment of flatmates... I'm living by myself now and find this has its benefits and downsides. The freedom and privacy are great (as well as not having to worry about your flatmates being nuts) but I get bored & lonely if left alone for more than a day or two.

I've found that I get along with my parents a lot better since I moved out. Maybe they treat me with more respect or assume I'm more mature ;) but I get the feeling they think of me as more of a friend than a responsibility now. I love visiting them every few weeks to bitch about politics and sink a few brews :)
 
Funnily enough, ive just moved back to my mums house, after living out of home since i was 18 and a bit! Over three years! Its working out ok so far, mainly because ive got some good friends who ive stayed with half the time so far that ive been back home. lol...

My reason is purely due to the fact i need 15 grand by May and i wasnt saving shit living on my own... Good luck to me! Its durable, i know come may ill be the free-est ill ever have been in my whole life off travelling.

I woudlnt move home for any other reason, i loved my other house, it was 'home' to me.
 
^^I'm in a similar situation.

If I had of been able to work it any other way then I wouldn't have moved to my parents place. They bought a place really far out, and that's where they live now, in the sticks. Thing is that I need to save a fair substantial amount of money to go overseas. Oh and I'm getting along ok with my Mum atm (today anyway), we have had a few big fights now in the 2 and 1/2 months since I've moved there.

Only 3 1/2 months before I leave now. :)

I moved home to save to travel, it was the best thing i've ever done I saved shitloads of money in such short time and had an awesome time travelling.

I thought about moving out but then I think I'm just gonna save up and go away again.


it's totally worth putting up with your parents again for that :)
 
I still live at home and I"m 19, so I guess that isn't too bad.

I want to move out badly, but my main reason for not moving out is cash related, I could probaly afford it if I really wanted to but I'm not very good with money and I know I'd send myself broke. I have zero self control. I can earn $500 a week and it will all dissapear, without me paying any bills, rent ($30 a week to mum and dad), food. My money tends to go towards cigarettes, expensive drinks, drugs, shouting friends drinks (far too generous), petrol (about $70 a week) and the odd train ticket, entry to places, eating out, clothes etc. It all adds up but as long as I have no worries it doesn't bother me. :\

I guess thinks are kind of changing though since I have two jobs and am working around 50 hours during the week, therefore I only tend to go out once or twice as of now (where as I used to go out almost every night 8( )

Another reason is having nobody to move out with. Since most of my friends are at uni and not working as much, they can't really move out. Uni just wasnt for me.
 
i lived in new zealand by myself at 17 because my parents left me to live in sydney. then two years later i followed them over when things started getting hard and i got myself into a lot of trouble. Now im doing an appretaship so that i can move out and pay my way in the near future. but like faerie im a shocker when it comes to saving, i spend most my money in the one night on drugs, drink and the rest just seems to disapear into thine air? i dont wanna move out cause my parents own a nice house in a nice area and they got cool shit.
 
I'm 23 and live at home with my dad. My younger sister is there half the year and at the snow the other half. My uni and work are 5 minutes from home. I'm also trying to save to go o/s and buy a house once I'm finished uni, so living out paying rent just isn't worth it. I get on great with my dad... as long as I let him know whether to expect me home, there's no probs with anything I do.

In a way, I kinda don't want to go cos I don't want to leave my dad on his own. My sister is going to the US for their ski season and I've been thinking about applying for a resort job for the summer, but the thought of dad being at home alone at Christmas is a bit sad :\

I don't think I'll move out at least until uni is done, mainly to save money, but I've got it good at home :)
 
Right now, i'd really love to be living in my own place. At the moment i'm tip-toeing around my olds cos i got a new piercing and i'm not in the mood for a screaming match :\
 
I'm 21 and have recently moved back in with my parents.

I lived out of home for a year because I had dropped out of university, which made my parents ask me to leave.Living by the beach for a year was good, but it was almost impossible to save money.....so when my olds became cool with me hanging around again, I moved back :)

......still feels weird though. They're like really old flatmates that pay all the rent :p
 
im 21 - i kind of got kicked out/kind of left two weeks before my 17th birthday (i didnt get along with my now ex-stepdad, and mum told me that i should "live somewhere else for a while") that didnt last long - about two months. then i moved back home, moved out again about two months later.. was out for about six months.. broke up with my ex (when i moved out, it was to a suburb closer to him) left again when i was 19 and havent been back. id rather live in the gutter then live with my mum.

i'd live with my dad i reckon, but thats not an option as he lives interstate anyway and i've got my life in melbourne. i'd love to move "back home" (either with dad, or in with my fiance's dad) to save so we can get things paid off and get a decent deposit for a house and travel, but its just not really an option.
