Sick of posts about legal adults who get dominated by parents

Times are different for millennials than there were for the prior generations. They face extremely low employment opportunities, unlike any generation before the.m Baby boomers are not retiring, as predicted, and the governments are not making enough concessions to integrate young people into the work force.

These young adults don't have the same opportunities to financially support themselves like past generations, so to judge them this way is unfair.

"MOVE OUT!"

I wish it was that easy, but it's not.
Sometimes people can't find jobs, and they really have no other choice, but to live with their parents. It's much better than living in the streets, or a shelter.

Personally, I think that it's sorta smart for some people to stay with their parents, it saves money, especially when times are difficult.

I'm 18 and still live with my parents, and I couldn't be more content. Me and my parents get along fine, we're like friends.

The problem with your post is moving out is tough it takes alot of resources to be able to get your own place. I plan on moving out but its not anytime soon.

Easy to say but the cost of living keeps getting higher wages don't.

I agree. I do not understand this problem either. I have a friend who has an older brother who is about 40 and lives with his mom. I've heard my friend talking to him on the phone with her in the background yelling at him to go to bed. It's really sad that people let their parents control them as adults but it's also their fault for letting them.

Moving out is much easier said than done. I'll be 22 in a couple weeks and I'm currently in the process of moving into my own place. Getting a job is hard for a lot of people, especially people like me with depression and mild autism. It's not like I haven't tried, I've applied at many places. Now I'm trying to get social security benefits and it is a LONG ass process.

I am 19, a full time student, and I live with my parents year round. I really struggle sometimes because I don't have the freedom that my friends do, but I'm saving tend of thousands of dollars a year. Debt is terrifying, and I'd much rather live at home now than when I'm in my forties. In the meantime I completely understand the need to vent.

While I agree to a certain extent, life isn't that simple. People can't just "move out", and to be honest, avoiding problems doesn't solve them. Even if you don't live with your parents, you will always be forced to interact or coexist with other people. If you keep running away after every problem, you are just being a coward.

Personally, when I was younger I also had these issues with dominant parents that you mention. That's why I know you simply don't understand what the real issue is. The problem is not that they take away your freedom, the problem is that they don't treat you like a grown up. I think moving out should be the last resource for anyone. The ideal thing would be for the parent-child relationship to evolve into a parent-adult relationship.

It's easy for you to say if you're not in that person's situation. It's not that easy walking out and just getting a place of your own like they do in sitcoms. It's a tough economy, still pursuing studies, grad school and what not, scouring the job market but nobody will hire you because you have no work experience so you're stuck at home with your shiny new degree, asking your parents for money to go to the movies. So yeah can't be blamed if one feels the need to complain.
