>just had huge discussion with parents about me moving out

Tell them the average age to move out is 25, which is true. If you have a job (at all) you can live in an apartment with a roomie.

Let me guess, you were the guy posting all the NEET threads, right?

Something about hurrhurr gotta work hard self-sufficiency bluh bluh you're a failure if you don't follow cultural hard livin' tough love trends
And no parent can bear to think of their child not being "successful" with regards to their often prepackaged worldviews
Capitalism (not really blaming the system itself, but moreso the mentality it spawns) can be a killer of empathy if you take it too seriously
But you know whatever I'm just being as much of a judgmental cunt as I'm calling them by writing this in the first place so w/e

Didn't you take at least one required "life skills" class in high school?
They usually cover how to register to vote, how to manage a bank account, how to find an apartment, how to look for a job, etc.

23yo here living on third world country, my parents never told me to move out of the house or get a GF.
Maybe because I get along greatly with them.
