  • I lived with my parents the entire year I was 18 and it was not a good situation (for me). I was expected to adhere to adult expectations such as paying rent and insurance, but wasn’t allowed adult freedoms such as setting my own schedule. My mother was pretty controlling and would change the rules or goalposts to suit her desired outcome.

    I started the year in vocational training, got a job in the field and continued further schooling (community college in the U.S.) so I was mostly working and studying.
