I had to work the summer to save enough money to get my own place. Varn Villa late night pool parties at 18 was insanely fun times.

My mother and I agreed that when I turned 18 it was time for me to move out. Second best decision I ever made.

I moved out at 19 and never looked back

I was out of the house and in college at 17
Our receptionist has a 23 year old in the house with no signs of moving out. I asked her about it yesterday and she said her baby was going to stay there as long as he wanted
Does that not hurt growth more than it helps?

Yeah but its a pretty common world thing for young adults to stay at home until married.

NO. FREAKING. KIDDING.
"Hey mom I brought some friends home from the bar, I don't know a few of them, we're going to rock on in the living room til 4am. There might be some sex in the guest bedroom and some guys are going to smoke out back. See you in the morning!!!"
My mom would've shot me, and then my dad would've shoved me out of a moving truck. Game over.
Also I didn't need them seeing me do that stuff.

I’m not here to defend it, because I was the same way, but rent is way higher and actual wages lower than 20-30 years ago.

I haven’t lived at home since I left for my freshman year of college 20 years ago.
By contrast, my now 30 year old little sister still lives with my parents. I asked my younger brother what I should get her for Christmas last week and he said “an intervention to get her to move out of mom and dads house.”

Same here. I came home and worked for the summer after my freshman year. I never did again.

At the last second, I had to crash my parents house out of college for about 5 months as the job I was competing for went with a different candidate. I had stupidly put all my eggs in the basket of getting this job, so I had to start the whole search process over again (Live and learn). Damn if that didnt make me work all the harder to GTFOOT though, living with my parents drove me fricking insane. 5 months was way too long for me, I can't even fathom multiple years!

Yeah. I moved out at 17. Went back for a couple of months a couple of time, but for the most part, done.
I also got married and had a kid at 25/26, so we would be considered outliers, even for 1990’s.

No...that was me and I never looked back. Lived in dorms at LSU and between semesters would couch surf in hell hole apartments before going back to my parents house.... independence was everything I worked toward and was the greatest feeling ever. I truly don't get kids now.

Kids today are weird. None of them seem eager for any kind of freedom that we wanted as young men. A lot of them really don't care about getting their driver's license. I couldn't wait to drive, because driving meant freedom.

I had the best of both worlds. I lived at home through college at LSU but partied at my friends' apartments all the time.
