It is my opinion that adult kids and their parents get along better when they all live in different houses.
Just my opinion
I'm 24 and i know plenty of 24yr olds that live at home. Not because they want to, but the economy was so bad that they had no other choice.( and they are all well educated..bachelor,masters, etc). I personally don't live it at home and couldn't. I have a full time job and grad school. When we live at home, we are forced to live by our parents rules. Fox, do you think you could slowly begin the transition out of your parents house? Maybe work and save money for an apt or find a roommate? This might help to relieve the tension between you and your parents. No, you are absolutely not a failure and the world is a lot more unforgiving that is was 20 years ago. You are still so young and there is still time to find out who you want to be in this world
Thanks for this!
