It is very wrong. In the first place, such a man is not ready to get married. But, why will a lady agree to marry a "boy" who is still under his parents??

Coming from someone who just did his chores so mum could make him breakfast 🍳

Yes if the circumstances support it. Be it distance, financial needs or any reason.
In some culture like the indians, they have compound family where children live together in a big mansion and the family expand as they build more around each other. This brings more bonding.
However, if a man is capable of renting his apartment or building his own house, he should get out if his parents house. In Nigeria for example, your prolonged stay in your parents house ll make many to believe it's badluck, retrogression or anything dramatic their spiritually traumatized brain can phantom.

Ideally, he shouldn't because he's the head of a family now and should be independently on his own, and of course except life situation warrants so.

He should pack into his wife's house.
The bible said 'for this reason, a man will leave his parents and join his wife'.
Let the wife get a house first before he can leave.

The only instance where it can be permitted is when things suddenly go wrong with financial situation of the couple and they have to relocate back to husband's parents house.
But that situation will warrant poke nosing from the inlaws and unnecessary interference that will have negative impact on the daughter-in-law (wife). They must never stay too long in a family house otherwise, things might get worse.

Can you people pack these conversations up!!! 😫

Una nor dey tire?

Depends on the kind of house. Depends on the location.
Not everybody is living inside room and palour

With the economy biting hard on every side, there's no standard for doing some of these things anymore. Just do what would allow you breathe, as long as you are not breaking any law

It all depends on the kind of family you find yourself
In terms of
1.Your personality
2.Mother n daughter-inlaw relationship
3.Your up-bringing

If you didn't tick all these boxes, abeg go leave elsewhere with your man to avoid see finish .

But for me personally, I can't stay

No!

Stay there until they ask you to sweep and wash plates on the roaster.

Nooooooooo.

In Nigeria marriage is seen as the best achievement one can have.

Poverty everywhere

A man old enough to marry, should have no business living in his parent's house.

He's a man and not a child. He is the head of his own home. So, he should have his own residence.

My answer bu:

2. It might be a bit right if it were different flats inside the same building.
3. It will be more right if it is different buildings in the same compound.
4. Mana ọ ga-adi totally right, if it is different compounds in the same state or country.

Are your parents living with their own parents??

A married man living with with his parents is still and resembles a child.

No matter how old you are, you still remain a child to your parents especially when you are still cohabitating with them.

It depends on the house. If it's a family house built by his parents and he's given a flat in the building, I see nothing wrong with it.

If it's a duplex built by his dad, and he moves into one of the rooms with his wife, I still see nothing wrong with it.

But if it's a rented apartment housing his parents and maybe siblings, and he moves there with his newly wedded wife to squat, that would be very wrong. And I would definitely frown at such action if I'm the wife.

He should get his own place, even if it's just a room. So that his people would respect his wife.

I think its okay;
If you're the only child of your parents,
If you're running a business in the same city with them,
If the house is large enough to contain everyone (Mansion).

With the current situation of nigeria i ld say take the opportunity.
