To whom it may concern, picture this;
So you make fun of someone who is an adult(mostly 20+ or older) living with their parents and doesn't have a job, nor hasn't moved out at all, unlike all other adults do.
BUT, would you think about why these kinds of adults wouldn’t do both for some good reasons?
What if they’re disabled, mentally or physically(low or high functioning), or have some kind of medical condition, and they(in any case) wouldn’t last 5 minutes on their own(Bonus if a non-disabled person chose that path, aswell)?
And along with that, what if they share any insurance in general with their parents, have social securities connected with eachother, and share bills together, and if they separate from their parents, their social security would be gone and there’s no going back?
It’s not just those adults that chose this part of their path. Their parents depend on them, too.
There might be cases that some parents, despite having jobs, struggle to get things done alone, such as paying bills, taxes, and enough food for one another. And without their fully-grown sons/daughters being with them, they won’t have a chance to survive without getting evicted.
As a high-functioning autistic adult, I rightfully say that living with my mother is the right call. Because without her, I would end up homeless, and if my mom lives without me, she’d end up homeless, aswell. We’re not rich at all. Getting a job myself would just end up throwing away my social security and insurance, and it’s the only thing we both need to survive for eachother.
It’s important for people to depend on eachother, no matter what the situation they have to face.
So, in conclusion, don’t judge a book by its cover.
