I do live in an apartment with my parents...I'm 24. How do I feel about it? Completely normal. That's what we do in our culture. We don't "move out" after turning a certain age. We live together forever. But every culture is different. That's how it is for us. If I move out, what will my parents do? They're here for only one reason, for their kids. If there's no kids, what's their point in living in that small apartment in America? I remember when I was in high school, I used to be embarrassed of living in an apartment lol. But guess what, one day I'm going to buy that house by myself and everybody can have their own room.

It's perfectly normal for "kids" to still live with parents in my culture, even if they are 35 years old.

We (me and my brothers) are lucky in the sense that our parents are pretty chill.

We do live in a tiny apartment and it gets hectic at times (like everyone in the kitchen at the same time, we don't fit!!) but we like the area we live at and we do hope to be able to buy a house soon.

I am 21 and have been living in the same small apartment for 13 years. lol We can't afford to go anywhere else since my mom is the only one working. Hopefully after my brother and I get good jobs we can move the whole family some where bigger and better.

having big house can bring down a tension between u and your parents because u don't have to
see and smell each other all the time. anyone who live with their parents in a small apartment must
have a mental toughness because u lack freedom like having sex etc.. this is normal human instinct. everyone love freedom

Yeah..I'd love to live in a house but right now there's no way we can buy one. I don't think we'll be able to in a long time. To buy a home, you need a stable well paying job/business. But I'm so glad to see many people here live in houses. Def great to own a home in this country.

Come to the San Francisco bay area, you'll feel much better about Maryland
