NOMTW, I lived with my parents for several years after high school it has its good points and its bad, the good you have few expenses so you can save up money, home cooked meals, laundry, the bad points is lack of freedom its their house and you have to live by their rules and you feel beholden to them, speaking as a single some people and especially parents will never see you as an individual or an adult until you are married, this is something i deal with on a daily basis and it is very frustrating
people say things to singles that they would never say to married people of the same age.
I know moving out is a big step and financially hard but it really is the best thing for you to make a life for yourself, when i moved from home there were plenty of concerns i had but looking back it was the smartest thing i ever did. Now my parents are unfortunately not with us anymore it makes me feel better knowing i am independent and able to stand on my own two feet.
