Do you think it's lame that some adults still live at home with her parents?

I have a cousin who is like almoat 30 and she still lives at home. Why? I though at 18 or 20 you move out? Doesn't she thinks it's time to move out? She has a part time job and goes to college. I'm surprised her parents hasn't kicked her out. She makes this excuse that she can't afford to move out because she only makes...$500 a month. Isn't that how much rent is? Doesn't she have friends she can live with? Sheesh. Talk about pathetic and lazy. Just saying.

My daughters can live with me until they are married. It is financially the smartest thing you could do. If they choose to move out I wouldn't stop them though. The boys will have several years in their twenties that I will let them live at home to prepare themselves by saving up, though I will want them to eventually move out and prepare themselves and their future home for the family they will one day have. But I am a barbaric savage that believes in statistics about success and crime and want to have my kids grow up healthy and happy so I will impress upon them more traditional values.
