Literally everywhere else on earth you live at home with your parents until you can afford to move out. This idea that you need to go into greater debt and struggle to show "independent" is stupid
I'm 41, a virgin, and still live with my mom. No job and no friends. It's completely hopeless for me and I think I'm going to end it all.
Yea California people don’t use logic. My dad passed in 2011. My brothers been married for 10 years and moved to Utah 3 years ago. Just me and my mom out here I work full time security on the graveyard shift and with 48 hours and also 8 hours over time coming cause someone left. Barely make enough to get a place. My brother and myself have tried getting our mom to move to Utah but she won’t budge. I don’t like the idea of her living alone but I’m so damn tired of Cali
You can’t afford to live here I feel you’re single unless you live at home. Why can’t idiots grasp that?
@@James-if3kcThere is nothing wrong with you being a virgin. There is nothing wrong with you living with your mom. Call 988 if you are having suicidal ideation.
Omg i was thinking this
@@James-if3kcyou still have hope bro please dont give up. I'm 40 this year and have similar situation with you
If society normalizes this, it is a way to fight the housing market. Stick the middle finger to rising rents and help your family.
I'm 27 and I still live with my folks. Hell, I take care of them and pay some bills for them!

@@James-if3kcdon’t, life gets better
Not for me it doesn't.@@Mattspread
The problem is the avacado toasters the ones who say you don't live below your means.
Those people have no clue about America's service economy and the fact that fast-food and star bucks survive through people rich and poor visiting them. Hell those same poor people WORK for star bucks and mcdonald's etc.
I hate well off people who think they simply tell the poor to stop spending money. That's capitalist suicide to horde and not spend in a Nation that can't afford not to spend money...
If you aren't rich, life isn't worth living anyway@@James-if3kc
During these hard times I don't think that it is a bad idea living with your parents at all .
Times ain't hard . Unemployment is 3 % . Wages are @ an all time high #GetReal
Hard times? Dude you have more access to money today then any human before you as ever had…we didn’t have our phones and computers growing up we had to find jobs the hard way and still got it done…get off your ass instead of playing video games
@@JohnMurphy-mx7pddoesn’t matter anyway. Family is family. In other nations they easily do this and it’s seen as normal and natural. Only in murican do people go homeless due to this.
Fortunately, my parents let me live with them during a period in my 30s. Very grateful to them, it let me save up money to buy a nice house with my wife…besides being able to save a large amount of money, it gave me a decade of quality time with them that I wouldn’t have had otherwise…it’s too bad that society, especially in this country, tries to shame people into not living with their parents even if they are able.
Unemployment rate is a joke. Wages are stagnant. Those jobs added pay shit and mostly retail.
I’d rather be with my parents then crying alone in a couch
Yeah a lot better then say living in your car or van
Why is that your choices? Lol
@@VeinySausage why is your lowlife mother not making my sandwich
This video triggered you parent moocher 😂😂😂😂

In asia we live with parents as long as you are single to take care of your granparents or help your parents not send them in a facility taken care by carers. Besides life is short. I dont understant why leaving your parents house is so exciting unless you will be married or live in another place for work. You never know when will you last see your parents.
In the West, there's this obsession with wanting to seem "grown" and "successful" by [seemingly] being independent in your own apartment. Everyone thinks youre not successful if you arent paying $3000 in rent.
The thing is, you can still be "independent" and successful even while living with parents. People here just wrongfully think possessions define their lives because rampant consumerism rules everything here.
Indeed. My family is from Colombia, and there are no problems living with parents there as well, in fact it is like that in all Latin America. And the reasons they move out are the same as you had explained above.

@@James-if3kcnooo dont, there's still hope 😢
No there's not.@@glockt3ch968
As long as your working a job, paying your parents your share of rent or mortgage. No shame living with your parents for that time being.

Some refuse to take rent money. My mom’s being one of them. So I pay for food and I give her money for smoke and I pay my phone and my Netflix and things. And then an uncle to three who if they ask for money they get it. So yea it’s not easy in cali
@@James-if3kc Going to be hard to get poosais
I already know that. It's impossible.
@@James-if3kcJ chill. Someone else out there would wish to take your place. Go out & talk to ladies
I see nothing wrong with living with your family if you have enough room.
You help them and they help you.
Its a community and security.
Because the cost of living is expensive.
Its not like how it was 20 years ago.
THANKS U WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE THINKING IT IS HARD OUT HERE.
THESE JOBS ARE LETTING U GO. PLUS THESE JOBS DON'T PAY LIVIABLE WAGES.
THEY ACT LIKE THIS IS A BOOMING ECONOMY . AMERICA IS COLLASPING
Gee I wonder if it had something to do with your over the top lifestyle? I bet what you spend today on yourself equaled about a month of my salary when I was in my early 20s.
@@vietnamvet4533 i guess when I was in my Early 20s I was only making $7 an hour my rent was only $375.00 that was 20 years ago
It was tough twenty years ago! Yes, things are more expensive now Of course, but we also didn't get paid near what people get paid today. fast food for example, paid minimum wage and not a penny more. Now they pay double what minimum wage is. you just got to make sacrifices to make it and most young people are not willing to do that. I had to eat can chili and soups for a while! Buy clothes from thrift shops, rent a shitty trailer, drive a pos car but I made it! Now 25 yrs later I have a house on the lake and drive very nice vehicles. All that sacrifice and hard work makes you a better stronger person later in life!
@@JohnnyDouchbag-nr5yf From my Experience
All I know cost of living in my hometown back then was very cheap my Rent for an 1 Bedroom was only $375.00 I was only making $7 an hour every 2 weeks my checks was only $480.00.
One check was use for rent and the other check was use to pay my electric bill and phone bill food damn I don't even know how I live off of that but I manage.
That was back in 2002 😊
Yes I had to sacrifice some things that I didn't need or want.
I was in my Early 20s I'm in my 40 s now.
I barely saw my Mom since my house is in different town. Last July, she's passed away, now me with my wife and my daughter decide to move in my father house.
I’m moving back in with my dad for the same reason, mom passed away a few weeks ago.
@@jubileelennon I can totally understand moving back for reasons such as this,
And take care parents too. 👍 I don’t care people judged of adults still living with parents. As long lives and true loves.
I mean have you seen the prices of rent and of houses in current times?
It's easy to tell someone to just get out and by a house or rent an apartment.
It's harder when you're the one actually trying to do it.
Yeah and guess what? Half the country is doing just fine with the prices…it’s the other half that are fine dying in their parent’s basement smh
I'm 41, a virgin, and still live with my mom. No job and no friends. It's completely hopeless for me and I think I'm going to end it all.
Yeah? Well those "half the country" that are doing just fine with the prices are the rich, privileged people that were lucky enough to be born into families with money and no mental problems. why don't you shut up?@@VeinySausage
@ MorriseyTheSnakeRoberts
Not everyone had their mommy and daddy fund their college, like you did, you stupid cunt. 😂
@@James-if3kcNooooo what r u thinking go get so therapy. Think about your love ones.
Okay I’m the past I use to say adults should be out n their own. Now I have changed my mind. I recently moved to Maryland from Texas and I’m so sorry to everyone in Maryland…how do you survive. I have a degree, own a business, prior military and both my husband and I bring in money and it is crazy here. We pay $3,500 a month in rent. I could go on and on but my main point is I’m looking at my teens and if they aren’t going to the military where they will have medical, dental, paid every month and continuous on the job training I’m not sure what they will transition to. I’m 100% okay with them staying home longer with a plan.
Times is rough out here. Im a guy, have a car and a job and live with my mom. If thats not acceptable by society, fine. I’d like to see where these rich ppl live. In carribean households, kids don’t leave the house when they turn 18. Only Americans do that. And sometimes, those children fail and turn to crime. Weird ritual if you ask me.
They don't necessarily turn to crime, but they simply move back home like the discussion is addressing. Many people today are doing RV, van , suv life, and I truly understand why.
THERE NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, VERY COMMON IN ASIA AND THE MIDDLE EAST. AND THIS IS HOW PEOPLE USE TO LIVE, IN THE SAME HOUSE IN EXTENDED FAMILY
Cope harder and stop mooching off your parents and get a job kid hahahaha
This video has you triggered hahaha
Yea well we don't live there and neither do you.
No one cares except you. Take your inflated weak ego some where else. @@vietnamvet4533
Its the same thing here where I am in mexico we all take care of each other and look for one another and just enjoy life
@SwitchSucksAss this sounds like it was written by a 12-year-old.
Already been told by my parents that I don’t have to leave until I get married. I pay my share to them and also am saving for the future. Rent is unaffordable for me.
Tough S*** !!!!! Get out
Poor baby mooching off your parents hahaha
I'm 41, a virgin, and still live with my mom. No job and no friends. It's completely hopeless for me and I think I'm going to end it all.
@SwitchSucksAss Judging by the videos you've uploaded on UA-cam, there is no doubt in my mind that you are most likely a child living with your parents.
ive seen this same comment posted a billion times..
I love living with my mom and I'll always be there with/for her forever!
Of course you do it is like stay at a hotel you whole life.
Blame the housing market
What business is it of anyone’s
Exactly
grow up and move out u bum..ur parents wanna walk around naked
Living with parents nothing is wrong , but work hard and support them , not use them in old age. Genz’s are so stupid.
Has nothing to do with starter homes being over 140k
So true starter home when I bought my first one were 25k, you say well see so much cheaper. Oh but I was making $130 a week, but didn't treak across Europe to find myself, go to Vegas for the weekend etc .
if salaries kept up with rent, id be out by now.
I hate the fact that I’m unable to live with parents. I can’t save a dime anymore and all my income gets wiped out by living expenses. It’s so depressing that I don’t even try to save money anymore.
I freaking hated living at home
I left when I was 23
I'm 41, a virgin, and still live with my mom. No job and no friends. It's completely hopeless for me and I think I'm going to end it all.
I’d rather be living with my parents than being broke and paying for a property that isn’t mine…doing the same thing.
I understand but not everyone has that privilege to be able to stay with their parents after adult hood it’s good to have a mentality on how u will maintain and survive on ur own at a young age .
@ johanruiz3422
You type like you’re 10. You have no room to be giving life advice. 🙄
@@domanskikid how about u stfu and understand what I mean maybe ur not mature or knowledgeable enough to understand what I mean or where I’m coming from
Yea well that is the part of growing up we all went through it, it make you battle tough to do things on your own. Let mom and dad do it for you well it is kind of like, no it is so child like.
@@domanskikid u replied without answering my question so gtfo. 😂
I am a childfree household, we don't have kids staying with us and it's great.
We are living in Denver and things are getting rough…rent is going up, jobs pay little and my wife and I burned through our cash and some of our savings for IVF. She’s 12 weeks pregnant now and we decided to move back home to our folks. She won the coin toss and we’re gonna be with her parents who are empty nesters. I worry about being a major burden. I plan on working more than ever to pay the medical
Bills and hopefully use the house more like a hotel than anything else. Plus, my wife gets the peace of mind she needs to relax and have the baby we’ve wanted and I know she’ll be safe with her family during this time. They said we could live rent free and I couldn’t really pass that up, honestly but it does feel like failing when nothing is wrong with you but society doesn’t seem to want to give you a hand. They pay too little, demand a lot and life isn’t worth it.
The world's on fire and we are edging toward WWIII and you're out here forcing nature's hand to add more stress to the system... Good fuckin job!
Don’t feel bad lol I did the same thing but then again I don’t have no kids or wife to worry about. Just gonna insulate myself and save up every penny I’m saving at home until I have the equivalent to 12 months of bills saved up and use my Va home loan to get into a crib
I'm 41, a virgin, and still live with my mom. No job and no friends. It's completely hopeless for me and I think I'm going to end it all.
Hang in there, Thats Humbling of you.

@@James-if3kc don't be a snob .
@@Mira-pm3ni How the hell am I being a snob???
Its a narrative. Ppl think u are good for nothing living with parents.i moved out and back many times. My rent was so high ,i was out of food some days. Now i pay half rent to my mother and im so comfortable n no stress. Why not!!.
You hit the nail on the head, you pay half rent , YOUR HELPING- this not the problem. Many move home for free. That is not reality !
Being from Florida, how much rent is going is very expensive, even if you have good credit. It definitely be hard living on your own. I had seen people living in a trailer in a Uhaul storage facility because of the price of rent or mortgage. It seems there are many choices: either live with parents, live with other family members, or having roommates. Unless you are very rich, it can be hard regardless on what your career is.
I’m at Biochemist. I graduated with honors from the top University and my first job was in the big city in Denver Colorado. Let me tell you, your comment is not wrong it is 100% correct. We have been struggling to make ends meet and see some sort of traction underneath us Sure I can survive but I either choose to eat and not save or I choose to save and not eat. We don’t really have date night anymore. You need at least 80K to be “okay”. Most employers do 40K. I can’t really have a rainy day fund because I live paycheck to paycheck and I am living in income restricted low income housing. I’m doing everything I can to minimize my Spending we even commute to work together my wife and I and she also has a college degree. But the truth is they are drastically under paying everyone and the cost-of-living keeps going up. She recently got pregnant and I don’t want her to work anymore because this is her first child, and we’ve had issues with fertility, and I would much rather move in with my folks, and save some money, then lose the baby. We leave denver this weekend. I felt like a loser but thinking broadly and more strategically, this would give us time to save money, pay some medical bills down and really rebuilt from the insanity that is currently trying to make it on your own. It’s not even that we are lazy, it’s simply starting to become very impossible.
@@AlexZ-lc6nlad how the inflation and economy is fucking everyone over you Gotta be super rich to be able to make ends meet. It’s very hard times were living.
I'm 41, a virgin, and still live with my mom. No job and no friends. It's completely hopeless for me and I think I'm going to end it all.
I might try to buy a big pickup truck cash and live in that lol.
@@AlexZ-lc6nl Your doing the best you can for yourself wife and child. Many blessings to you. I would let any of my kids come home facing hardship. I am blessed enough where all of them are doing well. My kids are still young. My baby boy is 21 he is in tourism and lives in employee housing, and going on internship with school, my oldest son whom lives in Marietta GA single with a room mate, and my daughter who is 22 works two jobs. My next to oldest son lives with a roommate as he is a single father with 2 kids. As long as my kids are helping THEMSELVES we will definitely help them.
was thrown out at 18, ended getting my own house the whole 9. many years ago. cant ever go back if i could. folks who can live at home better count their blessings cause some doesnt realize how LUCKY they are.
I’m over 40 with a Master’s degree in IT living with my parents and I pay them rent and help out. That said, I would much rather have my own place to be fully independent and happier the way I want to be. For me, it’s just economics. I’ve travelled all over the world on all six continents by myself plus have visited all 50 US states, the Caribbean and other places. I like being fully on my own much better.
Nobody cares. Quit bragging.
@@James-if3kcwow I keep seeing your comments every where. I hope you get help.

Im 56 and rent is recently (March 2024) than 50% of my income…I’m lucky he said yes. But we won’t be lonely my mom died on Thanksgiving morning. He’s got 2 little dogs to train I’ll help him with everything even tho I work over 40 hours a week, I’m looking forward to my time with him…oh and planting a bigger garden currently I’m in a 3rd floor Apt he has a ranch and he told me I’ll inherit it. Win win situation. Thank you dad I love 💕 you!
I live in Hawaii. I am 31 years old and it’s just me and my Mom with a Pomeranian dog living in a 5 bedroom house in a good neighborhood that she inherited from my father when he passed away. My 50k salary job is not going to cut it if I were to live on my own out here, it might work out if I was not single but then I would be at the mercy of my partner which is no different than having some dependence from my Mother.
Its just the two of you in a 5 bedroom?
@@Jaylade yes my room is in the northwest corner of the house on the second floor and my Mom’s in the master bedroom in the southern portion so there is space. The three rooms are vacant. I have my own bathroom and she has her own in the masters bedroom.
@@jon6309 Wow, im Hawaii that's amazing. You could probably rent out the other rooms and you and your mom wouldn't even have to work.
@@Jaylade my Mom already doesn’t work because she inherited other rental properties from my Dad which is sufficient to pay for living expenses. She was thinking of renting the vacant rooms in our primary residence but privacy would be an issue and because we have a dog it might be hard with some tenants. Also we want the room available when my sister visits from the mainland.
@@jon6309 Wow. Sounds like you're set for life. Lol "Might be hard with some tenants". Incredible.
Nothing wrong with it
Agree.
26 - 41 Living with you're parents is "Normal" in California!!! Rent and Home Owner ship in CA is ridiculous!! I am saving for a house CASH before I move out of my parents house and I give them Rent money. Rather give Rent money to your family than some greedy apartment owner.
It's not a good thing, it's proof people can't afford to live. 😮

Welcome to exorbitant cost of living combined with incomes not keeping up.
Oh and you forgot one other thing you even higher cost of living expenses thing you can do without.
Probably because things like rent are just to expensive. Southern Pines apartments is a great reference since those apartments are not worth $864 a month for a 1 bed 1 bath and with all the crime that happens there, and to many jobs are not paying liveable wages to warrant people to move out and live by themselves.
im in south florida 1bd 1200
NY 1900 for 1 bedroom
Central Florida $2000 for rent for 2 bedroom. Heck the only cheapest room for rent is $1000 and half of the population cannot afford that.
Here in California a small 3 bed room 2 bathroom house is 1.5 million dollars and rent is off the charts you’re looking at 2000 plus a month ridiculous
@Int-sumYou nailed it man. And you know something? This could turn into a whole rabbit hole of a discussion, but I'll just say this to add to your sentiment, who the heck in this day and age can afford a house that's half a million dollars?
A lot of people cant afford to move out.
Prices these days are crazy and people are interacting face to face less and less and prefer to do it online or to talk to a machine.
most asian even have own house...we still stay with parents especially when they get older and weak.they need help..when i stay at my house..then it is my brother or my sisters turn to look for our old parents...it will be like that untill last of thier breath...it is common in my country..we are trained to do that...the children or grand children will help the elder to take shower even to toilet if they cant do that themself...wash thier cloth..cooking...is done by thier children's family..and we are happy to do that...we dont need elder people nursery with nurse take care of our elders...but there is also parents dont want thier children at home because they never think what happen when they get old and sick and weak....it is an embarresment for us (mostly)asian if we dont help and take care of our elders..offcourse we will hear them always angry and scolding us ..that normal ..elder get dementia.
Everything is expensive these days.
It's because there is no money out there it's all a lie
I am almost 40 years old. I will never live with my parents.
I'm 41, a virgin, and still live with my mom. No job and no friends. It's completely hopeless for me and I think I'm going to end it all.
why not..i am happy when my children age 25 n 27 stay at my house for two week when they do their WFH n i prepare them meals ..no problem..i love to have them around..other weeks they are in other cities, 3 hours drive fr mine
Their kind of in a visiting status from time to time , not really there all the time. It's like that for me as well, and it is nice.
Here I'm 44 and still live with my parents. Never tried to leave my comfortable home. Never landed any proper job. Still single, no wife or kids. No friend or girlfriend. Life sucks but I accepted the fate.😢
What's your plan for when your parents are gone? If you can't land a proper job by 44 you're going to have a very difficult time.
@@VisionT I too think so and this creates the hell out of me. That's why instead of lying all day long over the bed or sofa bing watching TV or UA-cam or playing Video games like a parasite completely dependent over my parents for all my requirements now I am taking some baby steps to get over this situation. I am using that data to take online tutorials to learn Data Analytics and Data Science . I am now making my mind to stick with one thing for long enough to get competant in that instead of putting my head in many things all at once randomly or doing one thing for sometimes then giving up to do something else which leads me to nowhere and which is responsible for my current situation. But better late than never I am trying to make for my time in future.
Hell he is not alone. Many adults over 40 still lives home. They move out but the cost of living is way out of hand.
Well if you are 44 and still home with mom I can understand why no women would want to be with you, at least you are honest.
@@vietnamvet4533 Excuse me I don't know what world u live in but many couples are breaking up today.
Because both of their incomes are not enough. There are plenty of people are moving back home today.
The cost of living is way too high today. Bare minimum u need to at least make $5000.00 a month to live on your own.
Rents, is bare minimum $1500.00 plus more according to what city u live in.
An remember to get a apartment it has to be double the income. Plus your car note. Insurance. Inspection for your car which comes out of your pocket. Food, personal needs.
Eating bad food will make u very ill. Plus utilities bills co pay health insurance. Gas for your car. An the list goes on an on.
I don't blame people 40 plus still living at home. Because u need to built a major bank account today before u more put
Because u could definitely lose your job.
Especially in this ERA. I left home at 26 years old and for married. But even in my ERA.
My husband had two used cars dealerships an a mechanic business and he purchased 3 Large apartments buildings that had to be totally renovated.
He renovated one at a time. Once he got the first one completed he did the same for the next two.
I live a privilege life. But in this ERA when everything is COLLASPING and every one is losing there jobs.
Even all the 99 cents store are closing down on the west Coast. An they are not paying employees no unemployment at all.
Even the people who work for the 99 cents store will not be receiving unemployment.
Why because the 99 cents store are private and they don't have to pay a dime. They only have to pay there last pay check.
So don't be so hard on people who are 40 plus. ALOT OF these people had to move back home.
An the ones who live out in there own are having it very hard with both of these INCOMES put together.
I love a privilege life but I don't look down on no one at all. I have compassion for people today.
Moved back in a couple years ago. I can’t do roommates. Living alone would be impossible especially inflation numbers in 2024. My parents know me well lol we have our own living spaces. I’ll be here forever but I’ve come to terms with that especially as we all age and never getting married. 😅🙃
Well I don’t know what is the big deal here it is normal in some cultures
It’s a symptom of the popular image of a nuclear family from the 50s. The cultural expectation here in the states is that every couple should strive for that. But now it’s nearly impossible.

I'm 29 years old and I live with my parents. I think it's harder to find employment when you live with your parents because you are perceived as immature by employers.
What does living at home with your parents have to do with a job? No job interviewer can legally ask you if you live with your parents including your age (your resume shows your accurate dob) because it has nothing to do with whether or not you qualify, have experience or skills for the job. High turn around jobs are: fast food restaurant, slow food restaurant, and school staff. Seasonal jobs are also hiring as well. You can always check with workforce development or human resources to find out what your options off in reference to job offerings. If you want to get hired quickly, get a language book from the library and learn how to speak Spanish or any other language and you should get hired right away if eligible and qualified for the job.
Who asked this sh*t lol?
Us Gen X were kicked out at 18. Wish I could have lived at home a few more years.

How about going without and getting on with your life.
Nice food with parents
I moved out 4 times but mum said room there if want to come back
Help parents
Or can marry maybe extend home
Childminders
I’m the youngest of three brothers. My two older brothers went to live together so as not to depend on our parents and because it was the quickest way to do it as soon as possible. I hope to do the same when I finish my studies and get a girlfriend. It’s simple. Independence isn't accessible to everyone.
I'm 41, a virgin, and still live with my mom. No job and no friends. It's completely hopeless for me and I think I'm going to end it all.
Don´t write the ending before the story begins. If you are striving for Independence, be positive that it IS ACCESSIBLE!😎
Not for me it's not.@@RoddieSimmons
@@James-if3kc Sometimes you just need the resolve to do it. I live in Northeastern Brazil. Not because it was easy, but because every since my Brazilian second mother became a part of the family I resolved to move to Brazil and retire. When my father passed at 99 we honored his only request that we take care of his wife and we brought her back to her homeland. Was it easy, Were there challenges, Was it was accessible. NO, but we had the RESOLVE to do it.😎
I'm not able to do anything though.@@RoddieSimmons
The thing with adults living at home, everyone has to do their part. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. I see to often where many adults moving home, do not want to abide by their parents rules, and that is where having a full grown adult living at home becomes a problem. So tootles to the RESPONSIBLE grown adults that want to help and follow the house rules. I lived at home til I was 24. While I loved being home, I personally enjoyed and was able to gain money smarts by living on my own. I have no debt, I do not live off credit cards, I do have a room mate whom is my sister, and it works for us perfectly. At close to 30 you should have a financial plan for sure to prepare for a place of your own. I can see someone 18 out of high school or in college, living home ,but 25 and up responsibility is a must, even if you are still living home, and especially if you have kids.
Why living with parents is bad idea for american
I know a couple in UK whose daughter finished uni, married an American guy, came home and they are both living in her bedroom, rent free neither of them work she is 25
(FACTS OVA FEELINGS) Wen ppl live with their parents it can cause them to revert to the belief that just like in childhood they r unable to change negative conditions and stressors in their life the thing is they aren't actually a child anymore nor r they actually in the same situation they actually cud change it now but being around their parents causes conditional powerlessness to kick in

@@James-if3kcDon't there's still hope!! Praying for you!
I don't need your prayers, Rachel.@@gracefullyrachel6573
No you're not, Rachel.
Economy and changing cultural norms more than anything. It's not a bad idea, but it's good to have an exit plan too. Sometimes, it's making a decision to better care for aging parents... Nothing wrong with that.
If I were to move back home, I would actually purchase myself a sturdy wooden shed that I could convert into my personal space and put it in the backyard. This way at my parents start to annoy me, I have a personal space to myself. If I upgrade and buy a bigger one I could make it into my bedroom that is not attached to the house lol. This way I have some privacy.
Nothing wrong in adult children living with their parents if they share the expenses. Multi generational homes were the norm in India and still is to some extent
Thanks Biden. Well done pinhead.
I wish my parents still lived here id move right back
Nooooooo you can't use your money to help your parents! You have to give it all away to Mr. Shekelstein so you can live in a shoebox NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
THis guy gets it.
Based
why more kids over 26 living with parents?
Because they learned more advance tech, more rights, learned how to take advantage of the parents!
Shut up
Nothing wrong with it, we’re all adults and respect each other’s space and communication is good. We help each other towards our goals. Incomes are not high enough without 20% down, budgeting for property taxes, home insurance, car I suranxe , medical expenses the list is long. Living paycheck to paycheck is not a good goal “just to live alone”.
Hopefully when the adult children find their special someone they move out and have 2 incomes to pay these expenses. ❤❤

Homes don’t cost 13k like they used to. We don’t have boomer era benefits. If your blk, they never had that.
Exactly...

Rent is too high

Here is the thing: we are living in a time when more and more people are eschewing marriage for one reason or another. Hence, the traditional idea of "flying the nest" to start your own family is not as popular as it once was. More specifically, why move out just so you can sit alone in your apartment to make a landlord wealthier or again sit alone in a house and pay a mortgage and all the accompanying bills?
On a personal note, I am 52, unmarried and never left home; my dad passed in 2013 and my mom just passed in 2022. Obviously, marriage is not a priority for me. However, by living at home over the years, I was able to more steadily save money to the point where I now have over a million in the bank.
My point is that there's nothing wrong with moving out and there's also nothing wrong with living at home if you have no reason to move out in the first place!
In India this is normal, but in America this is new I guess.
We stop getting breastfeeding so that doesn't mean you shouldn't live with parents. From you love the nothing can stop you from living with them. Your going to be the one ending up taking care of them. So I love living with my parents. Am not home now but when I do that's where I'll be cause the want all their kids around. Am jamaican so that's my opinion.
What if you're still being breastfed at 40?
What happens when their parents die??? The adult children are lost
No it’s called a will they inherit the house and parents wealth
Are you dumb?
When parents frail they prepare children for their death
Ie tell them to carry on
Show them items to keep ie plates, screwdrivers , etc
Show them paper work
Guide them
I'm just gonna off myself then.
@@James-if3kc please do not do it, people do care! and at 41??? you still have a lot of time to turn things around!!
Gee let me guess, could it be the $1000 Iphone, the trips to Europe and Las Vegas, the eating out 4 nights a week, the got to hook up on the weekend at the local pub to drink some craft beer at $15 a glass, or the $6 Latte Soy milk coffee every morning, how about those $200 pair of sneakers, etc etc etc.
I’ve been reading through the comments and I’ve noticed your replies to others as well as this comment. Let me just say, you are unhinged and completely separate from reality.
Firstly, almost no one is buying a $1,000.00 iPhone in cash, unless they’re wealthy and in that case they aren’t complaining about cost of living.
I have last year’s iPhone. I didn’t pay a single penny for it because I used a trade in on old devices and took advantage of holiday deals, I got it free. My phone bill is less than $100.00 a month.
I just graduated. I started at a community college while living at home and finished the rest of my degree online. Not living in dorm/apartment allowed me to save a lot of money which was used to pay tuition, fees, and materials. I graduated 4.0 GPA, highest honors, and zero student debt.
Guess what: I still live at home with my family because with doing literally everything right, I still can’t afford a place. I’ve accepted that fact and have decided that instead of paying rent to rich assholes to get richer, I’m going to put money into the family home I’m set to inherit and make it brand new. I’ll have a fully paid off house/property without a penny of debt, I get to save a significant portion of pay, and I get to enjoy the twilight years of my parents lives instead of being stuck all the way across the state/country.
Honestly, stop judging people, everyone is fighting to survive in this hellhole we call the USA. Latte’s, phones, and shoes, are NOT why people can’t afford to live. We can’t afford to live because the corporations & top 1% have such a tight leash around congress which prevents legislation that would actually help people from passing.
I grew up in 3 generation household. I'm 69 today n we still live the same way. I c n help with my grandchildren every day. At one point we were 4 generation. We love it. I don't understand why others find it crazy. We all have our personal space n share community area.we share school stories work talk n just enjoy one another every day. Sure there r moments of discussion on who took this or that but my kids n grandchildren have learned respect of a loving family.
Remember the greatest generation? Well, this is the worst generation.
To save…
Lawrence needs to clean the keyboard ⌨️ 🧼
because we are morons?
I didn’t see them cover the leading reason: because they’re lame
Just pack your therapy sessions but it's worth it.
I blame the baby boomer generation.
Expensive as hell out there that’s why.
Ima not a man enough for my wife and kids she's has been fennel for a ll cops indefinitely okay game on anything else
Yeah.
Low fucking rent so there no fuckingexcuse
It’s lack of motivation, goals and an over abundance of parents who coddle their children which are the reasons why this is happening more often. There are jobs and schooling/ trades available to better yourselves. Take advantage instead of playing video games in your parents’ basement. Mommy and daddy aren’t gonna be around forever!
If you’re in your 40’s and your old, stay with your parents. They’re old and you never know when they’ll need you. I don’t necessarily mean free load, but pay the bills. And take care of them. Nothing wrong with that.
The day a person begins to become an adult is the day they move out of their parents home .
Yeah, that's not becoming an adult at all.
ha, especially the 50 year old men who never left the nest. they wonder why women dont want them
Eh, no, It's definitely more nuanced than that. What about all the stagnant/limited wages coupled with ridiculous housing prices? Are we gonna say people "arent adults" for the economy fucking them over?
Alot of people who live on their own still make poor decisions & live life recklessly. Just like children. The real step to becoming an adult is taking responsibility & taking initiative to be productive. It's about who you are, not what you have.
why have kids just to kick them out i don’t get it ?

@@James-if3kc don’t do it
@@James-if3kc don’t
Sadly your parents didn't force you out so that you could grow up and become an adult. You are missing a whole life out there on your own.
So get a roomate? Your first place wont be a luxury condo...kids are spoiled and parents are weak enabling them. I moved out young as a teenager no car no diploma...split an apt in a crap area we didnt care we enjoyed our freedom. Been homeless more than once now that is rough . Adapt or get left behind that is just life.
Left home in the 80s...if you still lived at home after 18 you were seen as a loser, werent getting laid fo sho!
Soooo where’s the downside? I’m not seeing it
Why? Inflation, that's why. Thanks Biden.
Excuses, excuses! These adult children have no plan of action, much less savings. Because they haven’t prepared for their future! There are circumstances of being a caregiver to sick parents, that would warrant this. However, this is not the norm.
You know in California you can’t even make enough to live alone. I pull in 2200 a month working security
Guess what
It’s still not enough
Excuses, oh savings from a job that laid everyone off during COVID save what with children? No to mention the income doesn't increase with the housing market.but you know everything so have at it
@@marinaavant
You know it’s a wonderful thing when you stop caring about a random woman’s opinion
I'll be inheriting my fathers home after he passes, that is not a excuse
