Around 18-25. Give or take a few years.

Then yes i agree. But by 25 they should at least be saving to get their own place

Yes, especially if you are pursuing many years of higher education. I probably won't have a steady job until I am 21, and the real pay won't start coming in until I'm around 25 or 26.

Yes, but after a certain point you should start helping out financially. Pay your own cell phone bill, help out with groceries, things like that.

Housing is incredible expensive here. We don't have much land, and a 4 room (including living room) government apartment can cost around a million dollars, about 100k or so must be paid upfront. To put things in perspective, it costs the same to buy a large (I think 10k-20k or less sq feet land area) as it is to buy a small (but one the expensive ones) island in the Caribbean.

It's okay at any age. Nothing gives one person the right to try and judge another's circumstances.

That's true too, but I feel like out of all the demographics, young adults get picked on the most. Besides 30 year old men d. JK

My boyfriends whole home is the same size as my bathroom, and he lives with two other people...I would much rather live at home until I can afford something decent.

As a current senior in college one word strikes fear into my heart: loans. There is your reason to stay home.
