The best time to move out of your parents home is probably not going to be soon enough for them!!!!
But here are a few suggestions:
Make sure you have a place to go that will be as decent as the one you are moving from - your parents' home
Make sure you have the finances to do it - when you move out - you should break the ties, and not make your parents financially still responsible for you. A job would be a good thing to have.
Continue to keep in contact with your parents, even if it is just a phone call, at least out of respect for their raising you all of your life up until now!)
Have a steady job and keep tabs on your money. Use it for the necessities and not the parties that you will be tempted to have once you are free of parental observation!
Set your mind that you will not have the yo-yo symptoms! This is where, when things get alittle tough, you run back home to Mom and Dad, until once again you feel like you could move out again!
You will know when the best time is. When you feel at ease about it, and when you have your parents blessing with the words
ringing in your ears as you walk away "You know you are always welcome back, and please stay in touch!"

When you are self supporting and ready, mutality wise. Having the money is the key. No boomerrang babies, Please!! Financial responsibility is the key. Figure how much it'll cost for, rent, electric, car payments, insurance, food and then gas!!! LOL. It's not easy and the room-mate bit doesn't always pan out like it should. You should have at least 3 months or savings that will cover you... just in case. (ie. Roommate flips out, car accident, job lays you off...etc.) Then you're ready. Unless pushed out, you are better off waiting until your bank account equals all-the-above! Good luck. Nuff said. Caz.
P.S. Try to get thru college first.... Test the waters then... College dorm rooms etc.

Stay as long as possible and save money so that you are able to move out of your parents house. I left at 22 and now I have struggling to pay my bills for years!

im moving out at 20, once i graduate from college.. just makes it easier, not having to work full time, so it saves money. just taking over 15 units a semester, and all those summer school and ****; graduating in 3 to 3 1/2 years instead of 5 to 6 years.. i really do hate school.

I would recommend staying at home until you've finished college or university. It may be fun living on your own, but it's also a lot of work. If you can stay at home you can focus on school and studying. When you have a good job, you can get ready to move out. God Bless

after you have held a job for at least 6 months,and you are at least 18.Be sure you have the cash for first and last months rent,plus deposit,don't forget utilities-some charge a deposit.Also,I'd try a furnished efficacy apartment first.They are furnished and most all utilities are paid for-except maybe phone and cable. Also,start a bank account in your name-helps to establish credit. Good luck!

when you can afford it, but definately b4 your being an adult becomes an issue. there is a point when a person is TOO old to live in their parent's home... and tempers get out of control. too many adults under one roof!
