I always lived where I went to school during break because I had to work through college. That shit sucked. But during summer break they would close the sororities and the girls who had jobs would sublease next door!

STFU. Don't pretend you know everyone's situation.
MM - be glad you have parents to fall back on. Some people don't or their parents can't/wont lift a finger to support them after 18. That's just the culture.. In many other countries its almost unheard of for kids to move out until they are married.. it's not uncommon for kids to live with their parents into their 30s. Take advantage of it while you can, assuming you are paying none/reduced rent. Save money.

Ive stayed with family at various points in time, its far better than living with random roommates, but Id prefer my own place or a hammock.
If you're dissatisfied you can turn things around on a few weeks, the big fuck up is when you have kids you cant afford, kids with someone you hate, a fuck ton of debt, a career you hate but are stuck with, no career / plans / objective or motivation to change, lack of courage and decisiveness to follow through, or impending hard time in jail/prison.
Running out of money and trying to sober up is nothing.

Yeah in the grand scheme of things living with your 'rents for a little bit is fucking nothing. I moved out when I was 16 and didn't really have the option of help later on even when I needed it most. Whatever though, made me hard and stuff, LOL. But seriously.. if you can live with your parents for a little bit and get back on your feet, take advantage of that shit to get ahead a little.

Thanks for stuffing the naysayer. This was intended to be a lighthearted thread not a catfight and im glad we are back on track.
I will probably live here for another month or two and then my sister and I are getting a place because shes sick of living with our father (parents are divorced). Split rent 50/50

If I had a kid, I'd tolerate his presence just because I would want to help him get ahead.
reluctantly, painstakingly, i have to agree with this. however, allowing one's child to stay rent/utilities free is counter-productive for all parties involved, imo
If I could afford my bills no problem, I wouldn't mind. Although, he's shoveling the driveway and doing the dishes. If I see that my electric bill goes through thee roof, I'll negotiate. I put a lot of value on the "you do everything around the house" clause. Now if he's just freeloading without a job, that's another story.
This is how people with money offer their children a chance to also succeed
Yes hard work is an obvious character trait to be cultivated, but with the ability to focus on what is going to get them there, with less stress it is my opinion that it is a good strategy when your child's future is in mind
Too complex a thought to portray while this tired, but I hope there is some understanding as to where my point of view stems

I get your point but the last thing I would want is to emulate and perpetuate that lifestyle. The world is becoming harsher and harder by the generation. I will do everything in my power to help my children but I am a firm believer in independence. People need to learn that it's ok to be responsible for themselves and no one else. Its a hard lesson that when it comes down to in this world, it's just you. Hopefully your lucky enough to have help but that can never be counted on because you cannot control the randomness of life and the universe.
I don't want my parents fucking bank account and shit, I won't refuse it don't get me wrong, I'm not stupid. But I want to know that if the shit hits the fan in life, that they can die without worrying about me and if the put away enough for me to make it. A burden I would not want to place on my parents nor would I expect anything of the sort from them.
Privilege feeding privilege does what? I'd rather contribute and take my share and be thankful I can provide service in exchange for temporary financial relief.

Thats what I do. I take care of the house, shovel the driveway do dishes feed the cats, pick up milk if we need it etc.
Ive lived independently before. This is them helping me in a time where ive fucked up and need a hand at the LATEST im going to live with my girl again when she graduates in May. Id like to leave earliee though.
I think any family that would not do this is unfortunate.

Just gotta keep on trucking. sometimes shit is rough. Do what you can. judging people is like the opposite thing you should do honestly. Put your feet in their shoes and run a few miles doing exactly what they did and then you'd understand. its hard to do, but if you can imagine doing some of the stuff some people have done myself included, then your perception might be different. Life is crazy short and a wild ride. Just remember its simply a ride. XD

We're not on our own, or at least Im not. I have my family, ancestors and future generations. As well as my friends, community and the nation. I know there are always strangers out there willing to help out, just as I am willing to help them.
When I die my family will be there with me, physically or in my eyes. Even spiritually, all life is one, when I die I accept the same fate as my ancestors and deceased friends.
Working with others makes us stronger, my work is built around the foundation I have and the fruits will be passed onto my children or my nieces and nephews, as well as friends and strangers as possible.
