I on the verge of moving out of my parents house. But I'm not thrilled though. I'm the youngest of 4 kids. And after I move out it will be just my mom and dad. Sometimes I know it's hard keeping up a house and both my parents work really hard and I have a fear things will fall apart after I move out.. Idk but I feel burdened to not move out it seems like if I leave idk something will happen. Does everybody go thru this before they move out? If this isn't normal I might need to figure out why I feel like this.

    I started living in Ireland (not my home country) alone from when i was 17.My parents aren't even in the same country,so that's twice as hard but you'll manage eventually,good luck.

    I completely understand! I am also 20 =)
    When I first moved out 2 years ago to start college 4 hours away from my home I was thrilled. Now I get really sad about leaving my parents. I randomly think about them getting old and it just freaks me out. I feel guilty for leaving ..like I'm obligated to keep everything together at home since my sister left too.

    Ha this is what I thought when I first moved out. My brother is 5 years older than me and of course moved out so I was the last one to go. My parents have always enjoyed each others company and now feel free to go do more things with each other. Me and my brother both only live an hour away though so of course my mother is still overjoyed when her "quiver is full" when either of us come visit. I think it's important to realize that you need to start your independence and your parents will be fine! =)

    Correction: I'm excited about going out on my own, for the adult responsibility & experience, and for the decorating. But I'm just not too thrilled about leaving my parents. Also all my friends have moved out their parents house and they enjoy it. I'm 20 and I'm a junior in college.
