>>47693219uuu hello again auntie risuner! We got married/engaged or something a few months ago.
Honestly, they're boomer adults. Theyre just as stubborn as any other adult.
If you want to take control of your finances, it's always a good time to get your own credit card and build your credit score, assuming you're responsible with your purchases. It's also a good excuse to get your parents off your back.
Personally, I think it's fine to live at home or nearby. Hell I can't wait to move back home after college. I love my family and I can save some $$$. I'll try my best to find work nearby, and I can help take care of my aging parents and other siblings. I've given up any dream of owning a home in the USA.
If you really want to stay home, it's a great opportunity to get a degree or some vocational training nearby.
If you feel self conscious about not paying any sort of rent, maybe you could ask about pitching in to your family's mortgage (if you have one), and talk about future ownership.

"Multigenerational homes" are pretty common outside of the US. I'm a 1st American (parents are from 3rd world) and that kinda rubbed off on me, the notion that you stay someone active in maintaining the househol. Absolutely not to the point of fully shared bank accounts though, fix that shit. My parents are getting old, I have special needs siblings, and we're ready to get through it as a family. It also doesn't hurt that the house is paid off, so I know I have somewhere to return to. Also maybe phrase it like membership/subscription instead of donos, maybe that sounds better.
