What do parents think about driving a child away from home at 18 years old?

The question is actually very complicated. Where to leave the houseWhen did you turn 18? Another small aspect: you were asked by your parents. It seems that this does not happen in our time. But, believe me, such stories happen much more often than I would like.



We’ve all heard stories like this from the United States. Upon coming of age, parents require the child to leave the living space. You're a grown man, go wherever you want. Mom and dad want to rest. At the age of 16, children can not only earn money, but also drive a private car. There's an opportunity. What do we got?

The situation is as follows: for the second week after the celebrated 18 years of our reader Irina parents "pleasing" wonderful news. In the residential area of the city, with repairs "somewhere in the 90s" she rented an apartment. For six months. Do what your heart desires. But live there, separately. Food, study, rest - all for your money. Spin as you can, daughter.



According to Irina herself, it was actually a spit in the face. Previously, she did not give any reason for such actions. I went to middle school, yes. I missed the stars. But why such drastic decisions? If not a child, she is the daughter of her parents. I didn't drive guys, I didn't throw parties.

How do you feel about being a young girl you want to get rid of right here and now? Let's look at a few options.

At first glance, the idea arises that such parents dream of a super-successful child who will achieve any heights without anyone’s help. Well, you know, "The knee is a very smart guy, could study well, just lazy." There. This phrase is used by most school teachers. And it means one thing: your child is just like everyone else. Not stupid, but not a genius. Take it.

Some dads and moms don’t understand this and think that somewhere inside the most ordinary guy or, in our case, girls, superhuman abilities are hidden. It is as if there is a “magic kick” that will transform her from an ordinary young woman into a financial genius. It's scary, but these parents really do exist.



Stupid and very short-sighted. It is better to send money spent on renting an apartment to another channel. For example, courses that teach a useful profession. Same languages. This is a useful practice that will make the child expand his horizons and become at least more popular in the labor market.

The bride for extradition is an even more dubious idea. Like, live, honey, in your apartment, maybe there's a husband. It's a life school.

I don’t want to say anything bad about today’s youth, but 18 years old is a gentle age. By modern standards, of course. Just want to walk, have fun, naughty. And here is a whole apartment, and even paid for 6 months. We’ll have fun now, and then whatever happens!



They wanted to teach the child responsibility, and got a grandson. Or grandchildren. Immediately comes to mind the image of some strange roulette, they say, bets are made, and then we will see. But, as practice shows, in this life, the casino always remains profitable. And modern guys are not what they are described in fashion magazines: a knight with a six-figure salary fell in love and married. Fairy tales are only in books.

We're old, we're tired, the most irresponsible idea. No, there are cases when an adult daughter herself tries to leave her parental home. Then it would be nice to know exactly where? If everything is fine and she does not need anything, either morally or financially... on the good way! But throwing your own daughter out on the street just because you're tired is the height of cynicism.



And it is not about the financial condition of the family: in our age, you can always come up with something. Even at this age, all roads for earning are open, and the young person will certainly be able to contribute to the family. Tired of routine parents - so much excuse.

Epilogue

We may be wrong and our parents may disagree. I guess. But then we'd like to hear arguments "beyond the barricades." What drives people to send their child at such a young age into a big life? The reasons must be very compelling. In the meantime, we have what we have. Good luck and good luck!
