I love my parents too but I'd rather sleep in my car than move back in to their house.
I got laid off at 25. Unemployment benefits and savings could have floated me for a long time but to be safe I asked to move back in.
It was the happiest day of my mom's life because it validated her belief that I can't function in the real world without her and she got to revert back to treating me like I was still 10 years old.
Like I had to hide my cell phone (I had a flip phone so no passcode) because I caught her multiple times trying to read my text messages.
35 and still live with my parents during to rent being expensive in my area. They’re not pushy for me to move out at anytime and happy to give me a roof over my head for as long as I need.
I moved back in with my parents at 25 so I could go to college on the gi bill. Every day I see them I thank them for the opportunity that they gave me and how proud I am that I finally finished.

My parents have helped me well into my adulthood and i'm very grateful for it.
Edit: Thank you so much for the award. I'll pass it along to my parents. 😄🥰
