Live In, Live Out or Live With?

Sometimes financially it is best to live with your parents so you can save up money for a down payment on a house. That's what I did. I was married and had three kids and we at the time made good money but we could never quite save enough for a down payment on a house. So i decided to move in with my folks for six months and that's what we did. We were able to save our money and had a good down payment on our house and we went from living in my mom's basement for six months to a 6 bedroom house that we called our own. It was worth it and I'd do it again if I needed to. Now that I think about it I don't know why I didn't just ask them for a loan. They probably would have loaned it to us and we could have paid them back. Oh well either way we ended up with a house we would not have had otherwise.

Hi jael!! haha you know what? i think you made the right choice! you and your wife! But the family bonding should always remain, visiting and checking your parents once in while will be a good way of showing them that you still love them and remember them. I know your doing it! :) enjoy your married life :) God bless!

Personally, I think it is best that married couples don't live with their parents anymore especially if the are financially capable of doing so. They are starting their own family and eventually would have to do things on their own. Living with one's parents is being in your comfort zone. As such, it somehow stifles your growth. Starting a new family is starting a new life. It would be hard to grow if you're somewhat doing the same things.

Every situation teaches us some lessons. Living with our parents keep us protected, help us learn from their experience and there presence always makes us feel blessed. Also, there are situations when people choose to live separately with their life partner and children (I don't understand why people do so). These situations help them face the problems independently and make them stronger. The couple knows they have to share the responsibilities and have to develop the understanding level for a better living.

I think living separate is better because we are dependent that way and also avoid misunderstanding and fights that commonly occur. One of my friend says that 2 queen can not rule one kingdom. she is a filipino married to Goan. Her mother in law is very dominating and bossy. so things like this will not happen and there will be healthy relationship with close ones. Have a wonderful day.

I don't know which is better,sometimes choose whether we live with our parents according to different situations. Living with them ,we can get some help and save much time to do our things,but living separately with them ,we can get more private space,don't have to care about their feelings.How to choose according to the need.I hope our parents ane we all have a good time .
