Late teens, early twenties.....when will you grow up?

[trimtan1]

If you're in your late teens or early twenties.......and you're still living at home........I'll buy it if you're either going to school, or working and saving money to get your own place. But anymore, as I see things, so many kids are planning to live off of their parents until they're 40. And at the same time, offering nothing but disrespect when your parents won't give you money for gas or buy your smokes for you.

I have a lady friend with a daughter that is twenty, and she is unbelievable. This SOB wants EVERYTHING given to her.

I've got three kids, ages 8, 10, and 12. I'll help them in ANYWAY I can, but they will show me respect at all times, and I'll only help them if they show a desire to help themselves.

The idea of taking care of YOURSELF, and being responsible for your own idiotic choices..........has withered immensely in the last several years. I would dare say that at least half of those in this age group today fit in this category.

Comments? I'm sure someone wants to hack on me here. LOL

I am 18.. and at home, But I was working full time for about 6 months.. and am now slowing down to 20-30 hours a week, and getting into school for the spring..

Im 21 have a good job, I live with my parents, but I just bought my first house, I move in jan.

Become responsible, yes
Grow up, never

Typical adults dont let themsleves act like dorks because its not the "Adult" thing to do.

Well, I can only speak for myself, but early twenties and living with my parents? I would have to be in dire straits for that to happen.

 

[jesus 2]

lol, you just called your lady friend a bitch! hahahah

Kudos to both of you for taking the responsible route.

And I don't really mind cutting loose occasionally and acting like a "dork". You're always a "kid at heart" when it comes to having a good time. But.................all I ask is that you take personal responsibility for becoming an adult, and not blaming your parents for your own stupid choices.

Thanks for the response.

Figure of speech bro. LOL

But she IS an idiot to tolerate it, and I've told her that several times. Latest incident, her daughter was pulled over with a friend while smoking weed and drinking beer. Her Mom had to go to the Police station to get her.

Her daughter, just an hour later, tried to get in her car and go driving and partying again.

Now, I love to party too, but don't you think that's showing a little disrespect here? I wouldn't go get her a second time.

I still live at home, and I am in my 20's. I am just paying off debt, and holding off on any and all recreational activities that require money. why am I in this position? 'cause I partied a little too much, thinking the job I had was going to afford me some opportunity to grow within the company, but never happened. I never saved for the rainy day. currently, I will be moving out in january, then I will have all my debt paid off, and will have some extry green for furniture and crap that is required for moving out.

better late than never

Just tell your friend she should be greatful that her daughter doesn't come hom with a guy the looks like drunken weasel If mine did I would smack the kid and tell him to come back when he presents himself with some decency!

J?k DrunkelWeasel...well not really.//

 

[PoyeBoy]

hom

HAHA, I lov that, its addicting, isnt it

 

[trimtan1]

People's Champ..............there again, I agree with you. At least you're making an effort to become self-reliant, and I respect that a great deal.

I'm not saying you kids have to get it together tomorrow, but definitely be striving for it, and appreciating the things your parents are trying to do for you.

 

[raider2124]

I am trying to grow up but muscle maturity is a tough thing to build

 

[Frackal]
