[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 721404, member: 1963"] I moved out of my parent's house and in with my fiance' at 18. We both had jobs, and in my case it was a friendly parting. In husband's case, he was done with college and done with his father. The big issue was that even though we were engaged, we couldn't so much as be in a room together with the door closed. I moved home for a few months when husband went off to Basic and Advanced Training in the Army. My father had died by that time and it was my mother and I in an apartment together. It was NOT at all comfortable. I was definitely an adult used to being on my own, as was my mother. We did our best to stay out of each other's way, but it was not an arrangement I in any way found to be desirable or wanted to continue. It worked out to be longer than planned as husband caught pneumonia in Basic training and was delayed until the next training cycle got to where he was when he got sick, so he could pick up where he left off. I was very relieved when he graduated training and I was able to fly to meet him at Ft. Campbell. I have no doubt my mother was as well. It's not normal for kids to want to stay at home once grown, and its not normal for young adults to want to repeatedly try to come home. My sister, me, my niece and nephew, all got out of the house as soon as we old enough, finished our educations in some cases, and/or were financially able. [/QUOTE]
