"poverty has really done bad to this one" bro, if you or your family are rich, it's not by your effort, it's just God's mercy and He can be MERCIFUL to anybody, anybody!

its not mercy it's hard work And smart work. U Christians are annoying

It all depends on

1 individual abilities


2 parental abilities

As for me I left immediately after my WAEC

Its depends on the individual, parents. Was 22 when I moved to a new state cos of work;in my base i see young peeps of 18-20 already staying alone and working .

latexxbro:

At most Upon Graduation from Uni you say because you go thief for Uni abi na business be your primary aim for Uni?? People and their mentality self..You didn't even say NYSC,So let's assume you graduated at 20yrs,You should Leave abi??

your type might still be with his parents at 30-35..

LOL @ Jesus film behind the scene you posted below your post.

Until the time parents cannot tolerate their presence anymore.

Joke aside, it depends. Some are not ready to move out even at 35. Others become independent at 18 to 25.

Depends on the child orientation, but if I am to use my story line to judge, I got exposed at a very early age and I left them parent about 19years or so!

lilmax:
25 max...no excuses

For females too? I still live with my parent though I'm planning on moving out.

Once he / she is old enough to masturbate, it's time to leave

....ahn ahn eh...Bros eh...

Culture influences this decision in this part of the world however a good age would be 26 considering cultural and economical influences

As Na me com own my house nko





Wetin make I com do





Say because my papa don change address make I no flex him house bah


Taaaaah!

In our Nigeria oh,till you marry or get a job that will take you out of town.

simplyhonest:
for me, I didn't move back with my folks after NYSC... so, it depends on individual abilities and desire to be successful on your own rights

Abobi, na age op dey ask uooooo!

The child must be financially stable, emotionally and mentally strong before anyone talks about leaving their parents home.

Once that is settled.

When the child wants to go the child can go. Minimum age 18-21

this topic go affect people o

life is hard.

For me i left at age 25 and it has not been easy

I think there is no specific age, it depends on the child n moreover abilities to b independent varies but I think after or before graduating from uni, poly etc depends on child coping ability n orientation

Mine is complex. Left home at age 15 immediately after secondary to join my uncle in Lag. He lived in a face me and slap you with his friends (about 5-6) lol. I manged there for 2 years while I’m preparing for jamb. Got admission and the rest is history. I stayed in school hostel cause I couldn’t afford off camp accommodation..

During strikes I’d be force to leave hostel and sometimes squat in a friend’s place off camp. I rarely go to Lagos cause Uncle got married and was staying with his Iyawo in his newly built home. Although not to taste but I really don’t like his iyawo and her delay in cooking. I like food but she starves me a lot.. perhaps ignorantly.

In 300L I started doing one or two hustles and money began to pump in heavy.. I was technically 19-20 years when I’ve been on my own.. would be 24 this April and thank God for everything.

Sometimes, certain conditions would boost your morale and hunger to be independent at least, if not rich but OK.

I’m the boss of myself now. I only called to check on his kids; send stuffs etc. last year December, I was in lag but I lodge in an hotel for a week..

I really don’t like visiting family people I no like some kind iyawo issues... na she dey call me now tho. She dey even call me “sir” but hey, I’ve earned my respect. I no do pass myself

If you can make that child into a seed then he/she should never fall far from the tree. But we have lost our way in God. Lost the purpose for our creation so civilisation requires or expects children to be 'scattered abroad' so that progress is terminated, knowledge is lost and continuity is ended.

In reality a child leaving his parents is the product of the curse on man at his downfall to sin in the garden of Eden.

When I hear such arrogant utterance from people my heart sinks. Do you think you are the most hard working man on earth and that's why you are successful?

There are people out there that best you in the areas where your strengths lie but yet they may not be at par with you socially.

Please never you brag about your success and never you look down on anyone still facing social struggles . There is no mate in destiny ; life revolves around time and chance. Ecclesiastes 9:11.

I intentionally stopped eating their food at 17(my parent even thought I was angry) ,moved out at 18 when i finished secondary school to start doing some menial jobs to further my studies and at d same time learning skill(s). So it depends on what an individual wants.
I hate depending on people to survive.

all fingers are not equal and besides each individual has his/her own timeline. What works for A might not work for B.

Forget this people way want copy oyibo, I dey my papas house, eating his food comfortable, Not going anywhere till I get married. If anybody like, make he prove his manhood by moving out at 18 or 20, as for me, I think I go dey till late 20s, when hopefully I will get married & get a House less than two blocks from my mom , so I can visit them everyday after work



Some just one to fuvk and thier parents no go allow fornication, so they move out sharp sharp

xpac01:
It all depends on individuals. I am 32 and still living in my parent's house. An employed graduate. I travel out a lot from town for a one job or the other. So no need paying for a house I won't stay more than six days in a month.

So, every one is cut out for different cases.

But seriously, this is d right time for u to start your home. There is nothing wrong for you to get a place, furnished it n get married. Its good to start your own family now that you r earning money at this age because time don't wait for anybody. There r lots of disadvantages in getting married late, u might not understand this now but when u get there u will.

sherylbakky:
@25...My opinion.

But d country's economy is not friendly, dats y u see older ppl in their parents' house.

In fact, no matter the kinda freedom u ar given by ur parents...U'l start feeling uncomfortable under their roof at a certain stage.

True

Don't mind them.

It depends on your background. Your live can start at anytime.

26 and still living with my folks. Will be moving out before June

daben1:
you're igbo, I guess

Why ask?

Legally 18, but from my observation start working after uni and get married and move out at 27-30.

I left 26,and almost done with MSC, leave your comfort zone if you really want to make it in life.

Ok
