Is it bad to still live with your parents at the age of 27?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:As far as the person who made the rude comment about you, that’s rude, uncalled for, inappropriate. To me, she’s not your friend saying shit like that, especially in front of another person. As for your personal situation with money and your job, it’s hard to comment on without more details. Are you trying your best? When you say you are looking for a better job that pays more, are you really looking or just hoping and not looking? Don’t compare yourself to your siblings who are older, still live with you and don’t pay. Maybe they do other things that compensate, like helping out around the house, or driving your parents places. Your dad asked you for rent or you owed him money? Do you pay him rent? Compare yourself to the best, not the worst. For me, more details would be necessary in order to comment and give a fair opinion.
