living with my parents while i was in university allowed me to graduate without any debt and save enough money to buy my own place. i guess the only thing i don't support is living with your parents and leeching off them.

I guess ....they've to pay cheap Motels....
I left my parents house at 17 because I didn't want to embrace their rules...
I would. He might be saving big $$$'s to buy a house, or buy something. He might still be in training learning to be a man....as long as I can undo all the bad training he has received...doesnt matter to me. That is to say that everything else is in order. He has a job, is a good man, sense of humour etc.
I agree, if he`s at home and doing something productive with his life (working, saving, etc.), then it`s OK. But if he`s a moocher and is hopping from job to job for stupid reasons then yea, esos culicagados need to grow up.

Wellllll I do sorta find it a bit of a turn off when they are living with the parents still...But if they still do.. they should have a car or something or going to School.....something that demonstrates they are in the LEAST BIT INDEPENDENT, because i dont want a man who will always depend on parents or on other people...its such a turn off...A man and a woman have to be able to stand their ground...I live on my own..and so true what rick said... it is hard to go back to live with the parents. I dont think I could ever go back!
I still live at home!. but that let me saved a lot of money !! , i own two cars and i m buying things that i wouldn t be able to buy if i was living by myself !.... I m only 22 though . I got friends that moved out already and they regret it so much . they can t go to school , they can t really save money and the worst once you are out its really hard to come back !!....
@ LB, true, I haven't thought about that one. I just can't relate to that one anymore so I guess it skipped my mind
@ NeNa, but if the person is already paying for rent and other things around the house, and still be able to save some money on a side, what will be the difference if that person will live by him/herself ?
I really don't mind the living or not with parents but I am just curious.

I don't see anything wrong dating a man that still lives with his parents.... if you have u're own privacy and pay rent and other utilities.. I don't see the problem...
but when u're leaving with them-- because u don't want to move out and enjoy the life u have ... then u have problems!!!!

Depends what you mean by reggaeton .

I lived with my in-laws for about 8 months. But that was because our place wasn't finished.
Regardless of how nice the parents are, it's so much better being on your own. One-hundred thousand times better!
Love my parents and his to death, but i much rather be on my own.

What about the men who live at home but are not saving up money or don't have a good job or don't have their own car....etc
Average Joes I mean.....would you still date them?
I think "dating" has more do with feelings than the finances....
I can count 15 guys I personally who still live at home, don't pay rent, have an average job and don't even have a car....mainly becuase their parents are well off.....so these guys don't see a need to save up...etc....oh and they are over 25.....
It's no surprise that women love independant men...but like Chale said.....independance is not fully measured by living conditions.....

I agree with you. Althou he better have a decent job. What I do find sad is for ppl. who are married & with kids & still living with the parents, now that to me is a BIG NO NO. It's ok to live with them if it's only for a couple weeks, month, even at the most a year becuase you are waitng for your house/condo to be finished. But from that to Forever ya nope I wouldn't marry that guy, little less have kids with him.
Thats true. You cant be a family man and still live at home with the parents. You just need your own space to raise your kids the way you want to raise them, without interferance from anyone.

Nope! Unless his parents have millions and they live in a BIG HUGE mansion and it would take like a 15 minute walk just to get to the wing of the house that they live in...then I would totally accept it. Only then. Oh and if I could also live in the big huge mansion rent free with my own bulter, personal chef and live in nanny.

ooohh X... umm.. yaaa... should i get you the Renters Guide? hehehe J/K
My brother moved out of the house when he was 27, 28ish. I think that's a respectable time to move out. He stayed at home that long because he wanted to finish University, get a well paying job and then move out so he could buy his own home and he did all that.
Now the problem lies when a man has his girlfriend/wife and their 3 kids living at home with his parents (the exception of course being if you have a parent that cannot take care of themself) I'm referring to a grown man still living off HIS parents when he already has a family that he should be supporting.
