Now a days,Why only "I" ,why are we so rude.I condemn this....

That's not true at all. More people live with their families/parents than you would think, and if not that, then they live with roommates, or with a spouse. You asked why we leave our families so easily when we get some kind of job or when we get married. First of all, we leave when we get married because we want to establish our own family, with just us and our spouse. It's good of course to stay in contact with parents, but when you're under the parents' roof, you live by the parents' rules, and married couples need to get out on their own and establish their own precedent, their own household. As for when we get some kind of job, easy: we need to learn how to grow as individuals, and we can't grow to our full potential when we are still living with our parents. You asked "what if our parents left us when we were born". That's not anywhere near the same thing. When we are children, we are dependent on our parents for everything. Our parents are NOT dependent on us. And moreover, most parents also want the same thing as we do, which is for us to move out on our own, with roommates or with a spouse, and grow independently yet still to be in contact with/friendly to the family. Living alone doesn't automatically mean you're ditching your parents. You can live alone, and still be close with your parents - still talk to them every day or every other day, and you can be the first person they call in case of an emergency, or they can be the first person you call in the same kind of emergency scenario. Why does it have to be so black and white, in your mind?

that is so true.wahts more worse is that soem of these well to do youngsters actually leave their parents in the middle of the road to fend for themselves.that is so wrong.recently a law came into force in india .whereby if any of the tyouth are found to have driven their parents into the middle of the road out of their own homes then they would be imprisoned.that is so right and actually some of them were arrested since the law came into force! http://www.saveindianfamily.org/blogs/category/misuse-of-498a/ http://churumuri.wordpress.com/2006/08/30/are-indias-elderly-not-being-given-their-due/ http://www.indiatogether.org/2005/jun/pov-chingpar5.htm

if what you say is true, then i must be an exception. I live with my family and love it that way. I agree youngsters are trying to gain freedom, create their own identity but that doesn't mean they abandon their families. I would never be that cruel to dump my parents in the olg age home and those who do that are in no sense' modern'. They are just selfish. I am the child of a single mom and i've decided that she'd definitely live with me whether am married or not.

I know that this happens. I think some people like to live by themselves due to some work pressure they have. People under pressure tend to vent it out on the people around them. So it could happen that they would went out their frustration on their families. So in such cases i myself would surely like to live alone for some time. But after some time would really miss my family adn want o live wiht them. While other people might not have been treated well since some time at home and they want to live alone. There are also some people who think that they can concentrate on their work better if they are living off alone. After all they are earning for the family.

I agree that independence is not the only way to show that you are a progressive thinker.

Life of human beings have become complex. It is because of competitions starting from education till job and also in the future. It is like competition never ends.People become so busy to their work that they neglect their family , friends , relatives and everything and dedicate themselves in their work. Marriage may be a reason for neglecting one's parents or close relatives. A person may neglect his parents because of spouse or children and is done because of the compulsion from immature and selfish life partner. But it is bad and it has to be avoided because by doing such things your own children will follow such steps and dupe you in the future when you become old.

because parents aren't on their game.

I think not everyone are living alone.I live in a Joint Family.I think people have to leave their parents if they have got their job abroad or in a different place and they live separately afte getting married as their spouse can't adjust with their inlaws. I think we can live anywhere and can love our family.Living jointly and fighting daily is also worse.Yes there are poeple who are leaving their parents at oldage homes which is so mean.I think they are real selfish.

Yes now we are acting rude its just to avoid others from asking us help.We now act we are busy and behave like we have no time for others.This make us a different person.WE do forget what our parents have done for me and thinks they are liabilities and forget our duties that we have to do for them. Cats and dogs do teach us to live on our own.but we have responsibilities we have to be done at our parents old age.They need love and affection and we have to give them importance in our life than to just to run for the money.

it is a growing trend, although i don't like it i had to do the same out of necessity.i moved out from my country so it is not possible for me to live with my family. some people do it out of choice, they have their reasons. but i would rather see people live with their family, it is helpful in many regards.

I have to disagree with you. I dont think everyone is like that. I do believe MANY are. However , here in India , our culture is totally different from the west . It is only after we get married that we start living alone. We certainly dont keep our parents at old age homes! There are some houses in India where the children stay with their parents even after marriage which we say as a joint family. This tradition was very popular some decades ago but is still prevelant even now.

For me I don't see it right to put your parent in some oldage home..we should care for them ourselves since they cared for us since birth. People who put their parents in oldage homes don't have a heart..I got married and moved some place else but still makes some time for my parents, my brothers and my sisters..Friends come and go but your family stays with you forever...

It's not a sick mentality but people don't realise that there not alone and must care about there friend's and family to. It depend on the education that the kid got when he was young. Do you agree that the education is the key?

Well not possible to live without parents..CozZ if we leave them.. so we are shame.. coz they born us very politely and they help us too much and when they need help and we not response so we are dumb..shameless..so dont b rude n live with chillin life.. we always enjoy ourselve n make happy other..

I don't think everybody is in that category some people leave families when they get a job to better themselves.The job might be a good paying and they have no choice but to leave.i wouldn't leave my father in a old age home.he had a stroke and could not take care of his self and i let him stay with me.

well this depends upon the indivdiduals. and individual families. Most ly i can tell u the reason why people want I , and people live alone from the pratents and creating such of this situation ., it is due to the desire, the wants , the modern world made mad or crazy the person , and they think that they can go to heaven by living alone , they can enjoy as they think , they do not want to hear the parents and they do want to take the advice also. this is the reason . Bu u know on the contrary , i am telling this for the person who read my response, can if he is of the above nature can change his attitude, please love your parents please stay with them please undeerstand the feelings of them pleae be united and be happy Am I wrong in saying?

we are selfish

it is like a continuous cycle, ogniuno must take its road sooner or later but it is not said that the tie tightened with the own beloveds gets lost with the time is one of the laws of the life. hello

That's not true for everybody, yes there are some people out there that look at life that way... I know when my mom reaches that point in live were she can't live on her own. (which at this point is what she wants) I will take care of her. No on the other side that would fit my son. He is 16 and has made clear he would make sure I'll be set in a nice old folks home.

well firstly I do not know which country you live in but here where I live it is not a common way of living that people only want to live by themselves, most children when they growup and have finished school and start their first jobs they normally share with someone as the rent is too dear to live by themselves and it is easier to share, and there are a lot that put their parents in homes but then again it all depends on your upbringing and the country you come from.
