Why are you moving out?

Why are all these kids on here talking about moving out at a young age for. You are not going to be able to live on your own, you need your parents for surport. You need your family. Stop B!tch!ng, your parents are only trying to care but you are just making hard for them. Just sit down with them and tell them how you feel, and if they hit you for expressing your feelings, then just call the cops, or just stay with a relative.

Answer #1

I can see where you’re coming from here, there are a lot of young people wanting to move out of home young, a lot of them wanting to move for the wrong reasons.

However, it doesn’t always go badly.

I moved out of home for the first time when I was (I feel) very young. The moment I was legally able to leave, I wanted to get out- I just needed a bit of time on my own, to get my head around things. My parents seemed very controlling, and I really just couldn’t cope with the pressure they put me under. When I finally did lefave, my relationship with my parents actually got better.

I’ve had a few instances where I’ve moved back home for a few weeks or up to a month (Like when a friend of mine died, when my lease ran out, and when my partner and I were in the process of leaving the country). Sometimes a bit of space can help.

I don’t agree with lots or kids on the site wanting to leave their homes, simply because (like you said) their parents are being cautious and looking out for them. I think moving out at this age should be a last resort when you don’t get along with your parents. Seriously, if these kids can sit down and have an adult conversation with their parents (express how they feel, be civil and understanding, not resort to insults or a screaming match), often things can be resolved. If not, you can always get a mediator to supervise. It’s part of a parent’s job to look out for and protect their children. My parents still do this, even though I’m 21 and live on the other side of the world to them. I honestly just appreciate knowing they care, and I always have a place at their home.

Answer #2

WELL I GUESS I AM CONSIDERED SPOILED BECUASE I DO NOT LIKE THE WAY MY PARENTS ARE SO CONTROLLING MY MOM HAS “KICKED ME OUT” TWICE[[BUT AFTER A FEW MINUTES WHEN I START PACKING SHE GETS SCARED AND TELLS ME SHE’S SORRY]] THEY DO NOT ALWAYS GIVE ME CONSEQUENCES BASED ON MY BEST INTERESTS QUITE FRANKLY IM TIRED OF IT && IF I DO MOVE OUT AND IM UNABLE TO MAKE IT THEN THATS JUST AN “I-TOLD-YOU-SO” TO MY FACE BUT I FIGURE I SHOULD AT LEAST BE ABLE TO DO THIS EVEN IF IT IS A MISTAKE && IF MY PARENTS DID LOVE ME SO MUCH THEN I SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE A PLACE TO COME BACK TO.

Answer #3

Thats whats the rest of the family is for! So and spend a few days with them. Your parents didn’t put you in this world so you can just up and leave them.

Answer #4

6xlovexmexalwaysx6: Pink Fluffy Bunnies- no need to be rude.

bigfran: sometimes kids don’t have relatives to go to- I don’t get along with my sister very well at times, so I can’t stay with her, and the rest of my relatives either live too far away for me to afford to travel to, or they are estranged from my family. 6xlovexmexalwaysx6has a valid point though- not everyone’s situation is the same. One of my friends has a rather violent Military father- she’s reported hi to the police for putting a gun to her mother’s head- but he never got into any trouble because of his “connections” in the police force. It’s awful, but true- justice systems are sometimes corrupt.

It’s not always spoiled brats who are “sick of mum and dad” exercising authority, sometimes young people simply have no other option. I hope you don’t assume everyone is like this.

Answer #5

maybe you should try to understand the opinions of the kids who want to move out before you just assume. alot of kids are in bad situations with their homelife. its not just so easy and simple to just ‘go live with relatives’. and calling the cops doesnt always work. most of the time they’ll believe the parents over the children. alot of kids to their parents were just a ‘mistake’. i really think you should get more educated before you post a stupid question like this without any knowledge.
