Bruh 2025 that IS the norm lol
They live in the countryside, and you might not know this but it is really really common there and I mean the idea of living in a separate house after you grow up is mostly an image coming from America. House's were supposed to be passed down and be a form of generational wealth. As well as the fact that smaller countries physically don't have enough space for everyone to have their separate house. So it's actually completely normal.
Well this just proves my own bias and culturally individualistic upbringing, thank you for the insightful answer, live and learn <3
lol I love this thread
In my country (Italy) the average age in which people stop living with their parents and go live alone is around 30/31 y.os lmao— big cities, small cities, it's pretty rare to find anyone leaving their parent's house as soon as they turn 18 or in their early 20s. I'm 23 and I don't think I'll be living alone anytime soon, but it's not expected of me because it's just what we're accustomed to here. Honestly props to people in any country who go live alone as soon as they can, I could never x'D
I'm in Canada, and in some cities with how expensive rent is kids are moving back home after uni or just staying with their parents longer and longer nowadays.
Love how these grown ass men just living at their parents like its the norm (¯ . ¯;)
