To be honest, you can- if you really want to you should.

But. 10hrs/wk of house work?! That is a little over an hour a day- almost nothing. $400/month- that is about a quarter of what you will spend when you move out. I would say that if you are so uncertain about moving out that you need to ask for help, you shouldn't. If your parents are really that bad that you can't stand living there, then look elsewhere. Otherwise, I think you should stay, for now at least, to build up your funds a bit more. I find my parents are very obnoxious at times, then they are fine other times- this may be something that will pass.

In any case, good luck!

Totally think you should move out. I'm renting a place in Toronto for 400/mnth. Granted it's not much, but it's clean and close enough to campus that I'm saving like 250/mnth on commuting

Moving out has been the best decision of my entire life.

I am so much happier and accomplishing so much more. Parents are toxic.

googogog!

I hate when I lay out my argument clearly and someone boils it down to shit.

He's almost paying rent, will have to do those chores in his own house and will have to pay for food, utilities, insurance, transportation, etc. etc. It's a lot of money, especially if you're planning on going to school.





Ah, for me it doesn't really feel like doing chores if you are doing it for yourself. And, not everything should be measured in monetary value (at least when it came for me to make this choice). I enjoy cleaning my own house !

I couldn't agree more. OP definitely has enough money and he's 18 so wtf not. Besides your parents are charging you anyway.

Find a cheap apartment with a decent roommate or two and you will be fine.

(personal: I moved out when I was 16 (graduated early), and it was totally worth it. My parents told me I was going to fail, but I proved them wrong ) Just make sure you keep that full-time job!

When you are moving out, you probably have to do 10/h week of homework too (when not more)

Even tho I love beeing at home (in my holidays for a week or two) and have the most awesome relationship to my parents (going to movies/play games with my father and stuff) moving out was still the best thing. Really, once you move out you will never go back,.

Where do you live? I would say move out if you're already paying 400$ per month to stay at your parents house. If you can find a roommate, you could probably get an apartment with him/her for like $400 to $600 each for rent depending on where you live. I recently rented an apartment with my friend in Ottawa minutes from the university for $425 each for rent + hydro/gas

Pretty much this. The only reason to stay with your parents is to save up money for college or to move out. They're making it incapable to do that, so leave.

Indeed. It's particularly annoying to have responsibilities for the place you live, but no control.
My strategy is to fork people.

you will have to do all of the yard work/cleaning if you move out and live by yourself, unless you get a roommate... then you only have to do half

IMO: Move into a rented house with some friends.

I currently live in a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom house with 4 friends and I pay $325/month (plus around $50/month for utilities (gas/electric and cable) and $100/month for food). I would never dream of moving back in with my parents, especially under the conditions you currently have.

Independence is a lot of responsibility, but being able to live in your own house without your parents controlling/judging you every second of every day is as good as it sounds

Your parents are charging you $400 a month? In rent? That's pretty shitty tbh, not far off actual rent prices. Move out and don't visit for a year.

Find a roommate and move out imo. You can find apartments cheaper than $400/mo if you have a roommate paying for half of it.

i currently live @ home but for free.. if i had to pay i wouldnt. thats retarded.

get the heck out man,


Seriously, $400 a month to live with your parents is fucking insane. If you're paying, then they shouldn't really be hassling you at all. Get out of there, and find a cheap place to live (or get a roommate).

The sooner you move out, the sooner you become a man.
You'll never regret that.
