im 26, I have a BA and work in computers.
My questions is, is it time to move out of my dad's house and start my own life?
mom died when I was 9, I have 2 sisters and one brother and one niece, I am pretty much the educated one at home, I have to mentor everybody at home and put up with everybody.
I feel like I am everybody's dad because I have to deal with everybody's problem, including sometimes my niece's, ok dont get me wrong dad works and take's care of his business, but I always have to hear his problems. ok, i am so sick and tired of complaints. The only reason I have sticked around is because im helping my dad pay off the house and he is almost done.
so is it time to move out?
and stop dealing with other grownup responsibilities?
please no humor answers

Well its really is up to you.. but I think I would move out.. you need to start your own life.. you can't move forward if your always being pulled back.. I mean you can still be there for your family but at least if you move out they cant depend on you as much.. they need to stand on their own.. and if you move out you'll still be dealing with grown up responsibilities like bills and such but it'll be your own not everyone elses.. just remember by moving out doesn't mean you'll be out of their lives it just means you wont have to deal with their everyday problems.. and you wont dread coming home.. you put yourself under a lot of stress and that's not good for you.. so try to make life better and healthier for you and your family..

I think that it is best for both you and the 'other people' you live with for you to get your 'own place' now ... I'm sorry, but you don't 'owe your dad' help on paying off the house, and you have paid far more than was needed in caring for the rest of your family. I have to 'agree with you' that you have too many 'grownup responsibilities' in living where and in the way you do, but you also have far too few of the ones that you'll need later in your life, when you are more ready to 'settle down' and start raising your own children and have a 'wife' to live with. A 'wife' is not your sister, nor is she your 'niece' and you need time and space to learn how to deal with women on an 'equal to equal basis' before you are ready to 'settle down' ... so good luck, my dear. And if they don't say 'thank you' for all that you HAVE DONE for them, then I'll say it to you for them. Thank you. Now ... go, and find your own 'good life.'

Well, at the age of 26, you are old enough to take care of yourself to start your own life. And I understand your situation especially to meddle with all the family's issues and can be very irritating at times. Particulary, after a stressful and hard day's work, need a peaceful and quiet night to calm each mind.
Discuss with your dad, and i believe he will support your decision. Provided you must ensure him that you will visit him every now and then... never neglect your dad.
It can be nice to be alone sometimes, especially living in a cosy and warm place... think abt it... You will hv a peaceful mind.

if i were u, i will consider moving out with the only reason of having my own privacy :) but not easy to be on your own, you must be prepared mentally and financially. Lots of expenses need to take into account, n u might feel lonely after a whole day of hard work and back home to face the 4 walls ;( think twice decision is yours just be yourself, sometimes you have to experience it to see the different ;)

If a million/2 the relatives approves of the circulate, and that's extra affordable for a extra greater room, i could say, choose for it. Getting extra for his money could be an progression to his existence. Now how with regard to the nutrition? Are they comprehensive nutrition or snacks. Do they get fruit daily. And what approximately pill dispension. Is somebody in fee of that, to eliminate errors. some places have the overseeing of an RN. yet in addition many places can not have sufficient money the centers. And does the dispenser of the pills, positioned on rubber gloves for sanitary motives? there is plenty to evaluate earlier you displace him. make useful he can cope with the transition, so he does not get afraid after shifting. I somewhat have a pal, who died 2 days after her circulate. She replaced into dealt with badly by potential of team in that wing, and she or he went right into a catatonic mindset. And did no longer understand her daughter. and then she died the next day. So weigh issues heavily.

It truly takes a big man to stick around and to help out with the family and if you have been doing exactly that since you were nine you have probably paid your dues. Why don't you try discussing things with your dad, he will make your decision easier. God Bless and take care! Claire

I would think that now you need to move out and be your own person. 26 years of age is old enough to be out on your own and established. It sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders so you should be able to do it with no problems.
Start taking care of yourself and let the others take care of them.

i think that you need to decide that for your self but what with you being the brother and all it is time to get a place of your own they have to start looking out for them selves sooner or later and if it is later then it may cause problems you can still be close and do all the normal stuff you are use to but like my mom tells me you need your own space where you can go and be alone
