Do You Want To Live With Parents In The Same House After You Get Married?

GOD NO! I'm not even married and I want to move out already! I love my family and all but I wouldn't want to feel smothered by them. I'm Chinese too and yeah our family also had this cluster of houses built right next to each other in the past where could all live together with our respective new families in the future but I was like HELL NO! I want to move far far away. I hate how in our culture, we usually get married first before we move out of the nest . It's changing now obviously but its still like that with some of the more traditional families. I find that if you live in a household with your parents then even as an adult, they will always feel like they can still boss you around like a child.

hi Robben, Well if ever in the future I rather have my own house than living with my parents or in laws because I wanted to do whatever I want to do plus the privacy between me and husband to be will be there always If ever I will start my own family I want to have our own place not far from my parents or his parents place. happy mylotting

It so happens that we are from the same country. After I got married and before I had my own apartment, my wife and I used to live together with them. In fact, I felt good living with them. Also we did not always live together, but only when winter and summer vacations came. Since we had our own apartment, we have not lived together with my parents. But once in a while during the vacation, I would stay at least one night in their house with them. My parents are very happy that we can stay with them. Take care, Robben.

My father used to say if you want to be marry you want your own house...and I agree very much with that! I don't think we have a right to impose to our parents our husband/ wife...after all they brought us up and they have a right to their own time without the quarrels of newly weds. I was born in South America but I have European back ground.

Hi Robben I can't leave my parents alone. We become young under guidance of them. It's our duty to look after him.How we leave them alone when then need our help most. Any way my parents live with me. At present there are six memeber in my family , my parents, my wife and me and 2 lovely daughter. My parent and my daughter lover most each other. We don't have any problem . I am an Indian

Hello Robben2009, I am an INDIAN. I got married around 7 years back and lived with my parents for around 5 years but those 5 years were like nightmare for me because of daily quarrels of my wife & my mother and we got separated from my parents as it became too much for me to listen to my mother's & wife's complaints.Now we are living in the same building but separately & living happily as now my wife & mother don't quarrel. As now i also understand that more you are far from each other more will be love & this is perfect example of it.

Hi Robben, I think that it depends on the culture but here in the west, it is not something that most people like to do. Living with parents often causes infighting in families which causes strain on the marriage. It is best that a young couple have their own space. Blessings.

I'm from the UK (England). When I got married back in 1975, my ex-husband and I lived in the same house as his parents, albeit in a separate flat - but, it wasn't a self-contained flat and we had to walk through my in-laws' living area to get to our own. For most of the time it was OK as I did get on well with them, but occasionally my mother-in-law could be quite interfering when it suited her. We just ignored it and got on with our lives.

For me after marriage I don't want to live with my parents or parents of my wife. I want to live in our even if we rent only for a small space to get away from living with parents... Better to have a privacy...

After getting married I lived apart, with my parents. After marriage, it is better to live separately from parents. to be independent, in addition to avoiding problems that may arise when living together. If living apart, when they met each other miss, so the pleasure that was obtained. If live together, sometimes a small mistake, it could be something big.

I am from India, joint family is our culture and tradition. In old age parents want support and help from their children. So it is not good thing to leave them alone at this stage of age. Although in India joint family system is broken in big cities because of house problems. But I like joint family system.

I have not got married yet.I don't sure whether live with my families or not,it depends on the size of the house.If it was big enough i like to live with them,it will be pretty convenient for me to take care of them.If it can't be satisfied,i hope i can leave next to my parents.haha.

I am not married now, so when I think of it now, I think it's a really good idea of living with my parents. I have been living with them forever now and would really like to live with them forever. But who knows the thinking might change once it really happens. But for now, I think it would be lovely to live with my parents even if I got married :)

Yes I'm in the category. As for me and my parents, there's a big gap between. Their thinking and mine is not match and very often, we having cold war just that we do not like their ways of dong it. So of course for me, when I getting married, I would prefer to have my own family rather than staying together with my parents; as I do not like this kind of life.

I live in the US. I moved out of my parent's house long before I ever got married and I could never live with my parents again. I feel we have a much better relationship since I moved about 2 hours away.

I don't think that is a good idea. I'm from the Philippines. We lived in my mother-in-laws house after we got married almost for a year. For me, it was not a nice experience, lots of complication arises so we decided to separate because we are always having an argument. I have a better relationship with my in-laws now that we are not living with them.

there are some parents too that they work and own a property like a house in order for their children to have it someday so that their children's future is secured.... to the children, instead of working hard in order to own a house someday, no need to worry, because the house is already there, what they have to do now is to do savings for future emergencies.... like an ant who keeps on gathering and saving food stocks as bigger 20 times that their normal size, for future use....

I wouldn't like to live with my parents, when we moved here my husband and his mother wanted that we live with her, in order that we could save money to buy a house, but my husband and me didn't feel like to do it,we live in US.Is always better to live near their house but not in thir house.Blesses.

I am from the US, and I don't thinkthat I would be able to live with my parents because many parents like mine still look at you as their child and can become a potential disaster for a marriage, especially when they don't know their limits or boundariesor want control. In my case, that would be my case with my father.

Yes, I want to live with my parents after I got married so I can also look after them and I have also peace of mind leaving my children to them.
