maybe each one of us has our own way in our country or community wherein we cant directly really be indepedent from our parents ground...
in here in the philippines., when you reach the age of 18., you just can't directly tell your parents that you want to be independent from them because thats our tradition goes., even those children who are already old enough to stand on their own shoes just couldn't get out from their parents home
why is that like that???

my dad doesnt want me to be independent. im 19 and i still live with my parents. i think cause of my disabilities he feels that i will have problems in the future when it comes to paper work (like applying for ssi, insurance, etc). i do like to be dependent and learn while i have my chances. when i can be more on my own, i would still like my parents to be living with me, so i can take care of them. i would pay for the bills and everything.

I would not prefer to be independent from my parents. But want to live my life independently. I want to take care for my parents and make them happy.
