i hope your parents' financial situations is very shaky....otherwise, them charging you $400 a month, at 18 years of age, and asking you to do tons of shit at home is pretty much scandalous if they're already in good financial health.

are you going to uni or college? if you are probably best to try and move onto res or off campus. if not i still say pack your bags if your parents are nagging you everyday, they probably want you to move out... common who forces their kid to pay $400 and do a buncha yard work and remedial chores if they still want him to stay. imo they're trying to get you to leave asap, but they want you to do it on your own.
for there to be pro there has to be noob.

I would move out, but only if you think you aren't going to lose your job any time soon and have some money saved in case of emergencies

I moved out on my about 3 months ago, and its financially very hard. I live in a cheap area and its still difficult sometimes, my suggestions... Milk staying at home for all its worth. You dont realize how much there actually is to take care of until you do it. Waking up to find theres no toilet paper sucks...let mom and dad buy it for a bit longer.
Why?

Definitely. I just moved out and have burned through thousands and thousands of dollars faster than you can imagine. It's going to much a much more expensive proposition than you can imagine. By the way, what do you do?

Also, start doing research into options for moving out even if you aren't going to do it. Maybe report back on what typical rents are and what they include.

My siblings each pay my parents $800/month to help out with the financial costs in my family and they don't mind it one bit. I guess it really depends how much you love your parents and how much you desire freedom.

But honestly you're 18, I don't know too many 18 year olds who can take care of themselves, and what will happen if you lose your job, or something just as bad happens? Won't you be too embarrassed go crawling back to your parents? =/

I guess I'm pretty blown away here.

How much does it really cost you guys to live?

The trick is, don't try to replicate your parents house in your new home, you can't do it!! Start your own style of life and just chill.


I have a really close relationship with my parents, moved out at 18 for school and have never moved back, it's really great to have the time to yourself.

I have been to his house i doubt his parents need the money. Dude, if its just that bad move out for a few months, ass how it is. WHAT EVER YOU DO TRY AND LEAVE ON A GOOD NOTE. Dont leave while your fighting with your parents, trust me it makes it hard to come back home if you are broke and have no where to stay.

Well I take in around 1800 a month, have $150 a month car insurance payment and thats it. I'm just so tired of being hasseled whenever I'm home. And my parents don't need the money BTW. I've been trying to do some sketchy budget ideas but nothing down to the dollar. I've been looking at like some $750/mth places and some roommates but I'm still looking until I'm 100% sure. But to answer one of the q's I think I'll have my job for as long as I need it. But another question was, I don't think they can have me move out for how much I do, and I don't see them negoatiating. Does anyone have some suggestions on how I can move out without burning any bridges?

yeah, if you're paying AND doing work AND far away from shit AND have two full time jobs...move out. you CAN move back in if things don't work out, just be honest and open with your parents about stuff. its not like they're trying to keep you down. it will make being with them a lot more fun, too

This isn't even a question. You're paying rent AND doing work. If it makes you unhappy, move out. My rent is ~$520 a month and I live in walking distance of Texas Tech.

on moving on w/out burning bridges: heres general advice for any functional relationship w/ your parents

be honest. they want the best for you despite what it may seem. let them know you want to move on with your life, that the lifestyle you have right now just isn't working for you. But also make sure they know that just because you're moving out doesn't mean you're leaving their lives, and I'd suggest helping like an hour or two with stuff around their house (here and there) as a sign of good will.

Don't ask them about it before you've done research and have papers, numbers, and phone #'s. Show them you're serious, prepared, you want to do it for yourself but are willing to take their help. I'd go even further and say take them out to dinner & present it there.

Also, don't complain about your current conditions. If they wonder why you want to move and need a specific answer from you, tell them you don't like having to do yardwork on top of rent on top of jobs. But matter-of-factly, blame is on the yard always getting weeds or the upkeep--but not the parents. Tell them the goals and dreams you have that this is getting in the way of (in reason--playing sc2 professionally isnt gonna cut it unless your parents are really tight)

It's your life. You're 18 and legally able to take control of it. The only thing blocking you is what you put up yourself.
