Living with parents.

Some of my friends keep living with their parents. They think that living with parents helps them to share
costs of rent and expenses. My opinion is that even though this can be an advantage for some people, I
find it to be quite a neglectable benefit.

First, people should leave their parents provided they have this opportunity and this should be
done as soon as possible. Rented or owned (you're lucky!) property gives many advantages and the
most important one it allows you to live your own life without a necessity to compromise. To compromise

On the contrary, co-living with parents is the way of constant give-and-take and utter disappointment.
Furthermore, you should allow your parents to enjoy their own life too, they deserve it not less than their
offspring.

Secondly, separate living allows you to develop healthy relationship with parents, to become
grown-up for real and learn some useful in day-to-day living skills. If individuals take advantage of
living on their own, they are likely to succeed in finding job, planning expenses, being more handy with
their house, negotiating with utility companies and their neighbours.

Finally, not sharing accommodation with their parents, gives people an opportunity to make the
most of their freedom. If individuals live separately from their dear and near, they can invite friends,
have parties anytime, listen to the music they like, have a place for thinking — in other words to have a
life they want without making excuses and facing limits.

To sum up, there are clearly more cons than pros to young adults living with their parents. On the whole,
I think that everyone should "live and let live".
