Were you ever forced to move back in with your parents or in-laws?

1 Answer

Answer :

several times I’m actually staying at my sister’s this time round. I’ve got my own place a few blocks away, but it’s not safe. And I help her out with her kids, so it’s fun for everyone. Oh and I get along with her husband a lot better than I do with my own parents.
