mind=blown how american parents kick their children out when they turn 18

[PKneyr]

Looool.
I'm 21 and my dad doesn't want me to move out.
Not American obviously.

Actually gets mad when I say I want to move out.

It's weird, in every other culture there is strong family bond. Parents in Japan want their kids to move back in with them even after collage.

it's not like that everywhere... down south... you're more likely to have parents that want their kids to stay. it's entirely to do with family unity...

I'm 25, earn $52k/yr, and live at home. Then again, I'm Indian, and we don't follow Western culture nonsense.

Western society places a huge importance on "independence". Making it "on your own". But Eastern culture is about caring for the family and community; "we're all gonna' make it together". Parents don't view their kids as taking up space, and kids don't view parents as a burden.

I'm going to give my folks the best life ever because I appreciate all the hard work they put into raising me. Western society on the other hand... throw your parents into a retirement home and only say "I love you mom/dad" on Father's/Mother's day and Christmas. Lmao. Sad.

TFW Parents threaten to kick me out nonstop and not finnacialy stable enough to leave. Prob would be homeless without them.

[PSVita]

lol, just lol

Had my first car on 16th birthday (7 years ago), a 2004 Toyota RAV4. U MAD?

Parents had saved up $40K for college for me and since I didn't want to go, they just gave it to me to start up a life. Bought a 2BR, 2.5BA home for $81,500 and fixed it up for ~$15,000 (including labor), built a deck in backyard by myself (mirin?) and sold it off for $164,XXX.




EDIT: Living with parents again and buying fixer-uppers. Sold my fifth home a couple months ago and barely broke even, lol. Not quite as easy as my post made it seem.

EDIT2: Yes, I *could* live in my own home, but why? Currently have no expenses, get to save crazy money (literally, NO expenses, not even cell phone), and live in pool house.

Why would I be jelly? I'm just pointing it out. Nothing in my post shows jealousy, I'm just saying American parents don't typically kick their kids out at 18 they just send their asses to college for over forty grand. So it's not like they're out in the world alone their parents are paying for everything. Other cultures don't kick their kids out at 18 because they don't send them to live at a college or pay for their college with a ton of cashmoney.

And good for you, it's easy to make money when you've got money. The hardest part is making money when you've got no money. You've skipped that part, you've got making money in life on easy mode. That's why people respect self-made men because they earn it themselves by coming from nothing. You're not a self-made man although there's nothing wrong with that. I'd do the same thing if I was in your position.

Like other brahs itt my parents said i have to contribute. They probably wouldn't give a fuk about me not contributing if i decided not to though. Obviously i'm not an unthankful sack of chit so i'll start helping out once i have my new job later this month.

[Autopilot]

I was out the door when I was 17.5. I didn't need to be kicked out.

[tsbalr120]

Parents pay for almost everything for 18 years, I worked as hard as I could to become self providing so they could enjoy the money they earn and save more for retirement.

I would feel terrible if I was still a burden on my parents, they deserve to enjoy the extra money.

Brah in Eastern world( Poland and east of that) parents want you to live with them. Will even try to not let you leave.
It's complete different culture. Kids are not seen as a burden, what kind of fuked up thinking is that?
Plus with poverty wages, if you don't own the place you want to move out to, you'd be better off homeless.

So what do I do OP? I'm 22 living at home and currently going to college, I have another year after this then univesity for 3 years I'll be 26 at least before I get a job that even allows me to come close to moving out.

I worked full time from age 17-21 and couldn't afford a car never mind a house. I paid rent to my parents though.


How does one move out while being a full time student? I'm not living with other kunts at uni either no fanx jeff id rather stay at home with my mum and dad.

Edit: guess my post isn't really aimed at OP but more the kunts who say you're a loser if you haven't moved out by 18.

No wonder so many kunts end up in debt and poor if they get threw out and don't get help while they save for a house etc.

[JoshKukl]

got kicked out at 18, joined Marine Corps, chit sucks cawk

[fishnbrah]

[Ken-O]

I believe a lot of white families do this, they send out their kids at 18 and send them on their own(college or whatever) , not saying it is a bad thing, but it really toughens up a person in the US. While Hispanic/other cultures are still family bound and prefer to keep them under their roof for a while more

there are other ways to toughen someone up other than kicking them to the curb, including a kid

[ForwardRush]

Its probably better that adults get out and learn about the real world and learn personal responsibility. Not only that they get to discover themselves, something thats a massive problem in japan that leads to so many people killing themselves over there.

The reason as to why most of them are committing suicide is because of work load and lack of sleep which leads first to depression then to suicide. There are many factors that play out, too much stress to be successful.

[HappyFunKid]

lol someone enlarge his avi always crack me up

[brenden87]

lol when i moved out my parents still paid for my rent and bills

i have a feeling it's mostly working class or middle class white parents who kick their kids out or start charging them rent

[Goobert]

LOL'd, here in Finland parents usualyl don't want their children to move away from home too early.
Except some families where the children are dumb as fuk (usually start doing drugs or drinking at 14-15 and move out 16-17 thinking they are adult)

[neilsabo]

Brb toughening up 80-year old parents by keeping them in nursing home rather than taking them in to live with you
