VIDEOS: Awkward Interviews With 30-Year-Old New York Man Who Refuses To Leave His Parents’ Home


Michael Rotondo, the 30-year-old man from upstate New York who is battling his parents’ legal orders to evict him from their house, appeared on CNN on Wednesday, where host Brooke Baldwin attempted to interview him about the case.

The CNN host jumped right in: “You’re 30,” she said to Rotondo. “Do you not want to find your own place?”

“No,” he firmly declared.

“Why not?” Baldwin asked.

“I don’t want to live there anymore,” Rotondo said, in tandem and contrast to just stating he did not want to find his own place either.

“It’s very tense; it’s very awkward. We have to, you know, we have to share space, which may be the case where I would find myself afterwards, but I’d prefer to get out,” he went on.

When Baldwin asked why he and his parents couldn’t resolve the matter without going to court, Rotondo stumbled, but ultimately characterized his parents’ request he leave as “attacks” on him.

Rotondo continued his bizarre media parade on Fox News with Martha MacCallum, who starting off the interview sounded like she was speaking to a little child.

“Where are you speaking with us from this evening?” she asked Rotondo, probing whether he was still living with his parents.

“I’m in a restaurant,” came the answer.

“You’ve left the house?” she asked, her voice taking on a hopeful tone.

“Well, I’m not there right now,” he replied caustically.

MacCallum then shifted gears and asked what Rotondo’s plan was to leave the house after a judge ruled that he could no longer live in his parents’ home.

“There is a time period where the attorney of my parents is going to send a proposed order and then can I can also appeal the decision but there is a lot of different things that… there is a lot of possibilities, but what it boils down to is that I don’t want to be there,” Rotondo said. “I’ve been trying to get out for years… It’s that I just need enough time.”

“But you’ve had eight years and they have asked you five different times,” MacCallum replied.

MacCallum asked him: “You recognize that this isn’t your house. It’s their house. Do you acknowledge that?”

Rotondo said he expects to be out of his parents’ home in “three months or so.”
