Are you okay with allowing your kids to continue living in your home after they graduate high school? I think I would let my kids live with my as long as they need. Of course I don't have kids yet, but I hope to one day. If I do, I will let them live with me until they're ready. Also, they would need to get work if they live with me, but I won't kick them out. What about you?

I know of some people including myself that live with parents because of the cost of living crisis and trying to get a house or apartment or basically anything is impossible to rent in New Zealand due to our massive housing crisis.

Me and my partner are happy living with my parents though. It's cheaper and as we are boarding we pay so much a week for power, internet, food, basically all living expenses.
 
I wanted my daughter to live with me, but we had moved to a different state due to my husband's job. So she stayed in the state where she grew up and lived there near the college where she graduated. Then she finally moved out to where we are and lived with us for a year. I loved it!!
 
I would love to have my kids live with me as I love the concept of joint family. Kids from joint families have great sense of family values.

I will be comfortable letting them stay on their own after high school. They should become independent in order to see how and what life is all about. Shielding them for too long may be counterproductive in the near future.

I believe that every parent will be interested in seeing their kids become independent and face life on their own but this is something that will always be very difficult if there are no visible means of those kids being able to stay on their own. Until the means that is going to help them to stand on their own are provided for, they should get all the support they can from their parents.
 
If my kids will respect my house rules and and won't make a total mess why not? They are part of me mini me my next generation and so I love them and will always do.
If they need to stay with me I will let them but eventually they will have to grow up and live on their own since that's how life like but supporting them isn't a problem for me.
If I will become a father one day I will make sure I'm a loved one :).
 
I'm okay with my kids living with me after finishing their high school. What am I meant to do with them, chase them out? No, it's never going to be how I treat my own flesh and blood. They can stay in my house and get married if they want.

It is my responsibility to take care of my children to the best of my knowledge and help them get to the stage where they can be independent in their own lives in order to be able when it comes to taking care of their own responsibilities. I can't be a good parents when I chase my kids away from my home simply because they have finished High School.
 
In India, kids stay with their parents forever. :p
The culture is to take care of your parents as they get old just like they did while you were a kid.
When it comes to my kids, I would let them do whatever they feel is right. I believe I'll never need their help in surviving in this world even when I'm old, so I won't ever be a burden on them.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the culture because that is exactly how it is supposed to be. When your parents have been there for you all throughout your life, you should return the favour when they are getting old as they need your help in order for them to get by until it is time for their passing to the great beyond.

Yeah! There are few people who send their parents to old-age homes where all old-aged people stay together. It is really bad because it completely breaks the heart of those parents. They also start doubting and questioning the way they raised their kids being curious about what went wrong in that which made their children so heartless.

They are horrible sons and daughters in my book. I can't imagine when a parent will bleed their last drop of blood to take care of their kids but only for those kids to throw them out like trash when it's time for them to look after their old parents.

If after taking care of my children in every way possible but none of them deem it necessary to spare me an opportunity to take care of me when I'm old, I will curse them. Curses are real in my place. They will never have peace.

Life is always about stages. I believe that when it is the right time for your kids to leave home and stand on their own independently, they will definitely be the ones that are going to make the move and you don't even have to push them to do that. This is because they will need their own space in order for them to be comfortable in their own privacy.
 
My kid lives with me and has been out of school for a couple years now. There’s 3 people in my house and we all have our own bedrooms (mine being the master bedroom) so I don’t mind, I have all the privacy I need if I stay in my room. I have my own bathroom. If I get a mini-fridge and microwave it would almost be like an apartment. Lol

I also like having her around. We have an amazing relationship.

If there are enough rooms for everyone to make use of, and have their own privacy, I don't see why one wouldn't live with his children. I wouldn't be at peace knowing my kids are not having life easy wherever they are at when I can provide for them.
 
I was living with my parents until 5 years ago despite being married and having a child. In our part of the world, living with parents, especially for sons is perfectly ok. In fact, people start talking when you separate from your parents. They will say you are being irresponsible and not looking after your parents in their old age. Therefore, I would be perfectly ok with my kids living with me even after they complete their high school

Culture is something that is different from one place to another and I have always been the kind of person that appreciate each culture that the people practice in their own country. It is the exact opposite of what is practiced in your country that is been practiced in my country. It is not expected of a son to stay in his parents house in my culture once he is an adult.
