What age did you move out of your parents house?

[allielynn]

[ReneD13]

I wanted too at 17 but ended up doing it at 19 by joining the military. Have been moved out since then, did 10 years in the military then flipped that experience to a well paying technical field on the civilian side. I love my parents but didn't want to be around them 24/7 and wanted to be able to make my own rules and learn from my own mistakes.

[MrSpine]

I left at 18 and went off to boot camp that was like 1000 miles away and now I'm stationed over 2000 miles away.

[Gorge95]

At the age of 24 (was starting out in the Working world after looking after the home expenses and getting two university degrees so my resources were limited before the age of 24). After 24 I gathered enough to find my own place and still look after my parents.

[HeartFullOfGlue]

when I was 4 years old

[allielynn]

what happened?

[HeartFullOfGlue]

I had enough of their talking, so I packed my backpack and stayed in a tree for a day.

[allielynn]

ohh lol, i thought you were meaning that you got put in like a foster home or something at 4

[HeartFullOfGlue]

Oh no no, nothing like that

[allielynn]

ok lol

[OlderAndWiser]

I left home at age 16 and oved 350 miles away.

[xJayleenx]

Wow that mustve been tough

[OlderAndWiser]

@xJayleenx It was challenging. Everyone around me was at least 2-3 years older.

[Pink2000]

When I was 19. I got my first student apartment. Still living here. I did move back home at 20 and then moved out again at 21.

my kitchen and living room

[888theGreat]

[Pink2000]

@888theGreat what do you mean? It won’t effect me.

[888theGreat]

crash effects everyone

[Pink2000]

@888theGreat okay

[Pink2000]

@888theGreat what does that have to do with me living in a student apartment.

[888theGreat]

no money no school , no Apartment

[Pink2000]

@888theGreat my school is paid for already.

[888theGreat]

How is that? You paid in advance?

[Pink2000]

@888theGreat I have a scholarship.

[888theGreat]

ok, and you don;t work at all?

[Pink2000]

@888theGreat no. I don’t.

[888theGreat]

you are very lucky, most have to work and pay for college

[Rambling010]

19 but I kept coming back every few years and staying for months at a time. Up until my mom died when I was 33. But by that time I really didn't stay with her hardly at all and hiding for the last 2 or 3 years. I had heroin problems so she's lucky I wasn't there all the time

[HighlyVolatile]

17 in my case. I went to uni out of state on a full scholarship. Then I supported myself with a part-time job lifting heavy bed frames up and down the stairs at a hotel and some money I had saved. Later in my sophomore year, I got a teaching job to teach CS 101/102 and also serve as a research assistant to the head of the CS department, so I no longer needed the hotel job at that point.

[allielynn]

wow!

[HighlyVolatile]

I was kind of eager to leave the house as soon as I could. My mother was a bit insufferable. :-D After graduation, I moved to TX and then LA for a while to work. Then I started being able to work remotely so I traveled a lot and also worked at some of my company's branches in Europe. Then finally returned to Japan (where I am originally from).

[BipBipLeddus]

I left home, never to return, at 17.

When did I technically "move out"? I don't think I did. All my crap is still there in a shed and closet.

[Lauren-green]

I must’ve been 18 at the time I moved out. But I just broke up with my partner this week, after 5 1/2 years so I’ll probably be moving back there for awhile, while I try sort out a place to live in the midst of a housing crisis

[Iron_Man]

We are best friends why would I wanna move out I believe in living with my family for eternity we stick together as one team and newcomers are also welcome like wives

[allielynn]

you still live with your parents?

[Iron_Man]

If you wanna know the circumstances you’ll have to private message me I’m not gonna discuss this in A worldwide website open thread

[allielynn]

okay?

[Slartybartfast]

three days before my 18th birthday.

I had spent to much money on my girlfriend (who was cheating on me) and was in a bad mood. My stepdad and I got into an argument and he hit me so I hit him back and I was out on the street.

[allielynn]

damn, what is it and abusive stepdads?

[Slartybartfast]

Actually, he was a good guy. I was in a pissy mood and he didn't deserve it.

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Still live with them. I plan to move out when I finish college and get my career started. By then I will have enough saved up to afford an apartment or rent a house 😊 Maybe sooner

[allielynn]

nice! my parents just bought me an apartment for my 18th birthday and i'm still getting things together to move out, most likely next month.

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Fun!

[NathanDavis]

22 years old

however, I am currently living at my parent's house and where I grew up... bought it from them, lol

[AviatorTom]

I was 20 when I moved out of the house and into my own apartment. It was the end of my sophomore year in college.

[Dinklex3]

Didn't move out "officially" until 24.
It's still my home though.

[CurlyGirl42]

At age 21 when I finally got a room at a dorm like a year after I started university.

[Adam1978]

19 if we count military service, 20 otherwise. I simply moved out as soon as I had an opportunity.

[DonkeyDan]

18, would have left earlier if I hadn't been doing my A levels.

[exitseven]

I moved out at 18 nd came back and then moved out again at 21 and moved back a year or so before I got married at 25.

[ChrisMaster69]

16/17 I moved out and never went Back to live there.

[BlondeGoneWild]

I went back home for 2 years after college and then moved across the country when I was 23

[Subarugirl]

I was 17 when I went to boarding school, moved back in at 18 and then put again at 19

[888theGreat]

you had no parents?

[Subarugirl]

@888theGreat oh I had parents..

[MrtoddsWildRide]

I was eighteen. However after my mom passed away I went back to help my dad out for a year when I was twenty-three. I couldn't wait to leave again.
