Definitely!

Currently doing that

Absolutely!

I'm at that level.

Planning to get an apartment sef. After youth service this year tho.

Get a camp gas

Buy your own food stuff and politely reject their food

You are slowly maturing soon you will leave and get a place of your own


.

No never

As long as u provide for dat food

Poor home training... very bad to think you’re too old to eat your parents food

I stay with my parents and I don't eat their food and also pay the nepa bill and other miscellaneous bills when it arise..
I don't see it as a big deal but making them know I'm matured enough to take of my self without them.. All am planning for now is my own apartment...

Personally its not a wise idea.
U can limit the food wahala to eating morning & night only if ur pocket permits

Righteousness2:
Brother , don't leave ur Parents house because of See finish! Leave because something tangible is out there for u.

Of Course You can live in your Parents house and Feed yourself..

Even though your comments annoy me most times, this particular one is on point.

Yes I don’t eat every meal they prepare at home which is for the whole family. I buy whatever I want to eat at that moment, still run errands, and support the family financially in the best ways possible.

don’t try it bruh.

nigerian parent are bloody dictators, by not eating their food will only spark more hatred towards you.

The best you can do is contribute to food stuff and bills, that way u will earn small respect than not eating their food.

Never live in your parents house as a man no matter what. Thank me later

It's difficult to live with your parent? You need to grow up. I don't know if you are a girl or boy. How will will live with your partner if it's hard to live with people that give birth to you. If you want to prove you are big why not do something at home take a responsibility

SaveMeLord:
Ok so I'm writing this to ask whether some of you live with your parents but don't eat their food to avoid "see finish". You know how some parents mentality is they feel because they feed you they will disrespecting you and talking to you anyhow and sending you errands meant for 12 year olds.

I feel if I start from not eating their food and be getting my own food the disrespect will reduce until I finally leave them for good. What do you think? anyone has experience? BTW I'm 24

Their house you are living nko........


If you no want see finish....... Kúkú pack out jejely.......

Since you know you have the money to feed yourself just because you want respect, why can't you put the effort of waiting for your parents to respect you by not eating their food into taking up some of the responsibilities in the house like paying for the powers and water bills, filling the gas and getting some toiletries and groceries, in this manner, you will earn the respect you are looking for and you will be repaying them the favor they have done to you while growing up...

And please do not disrespect them in any of this way just because you are balling....Remember,tables do turn.

u can't stay with them nd stop eating. Double your hustle nd get your own apartment pls

Impossible.

Because of disrespect from your own parents you want to leave House
.
Why don't you start by assisting them in even the very little you can afford.Do meagre stuff around the house without being asked.Once in awhile give your mom money to prepare you a nice meal.

Don't leave them with the whole burden, nobody will disrespect you unless you're reckless and disrespect yourself

That's disrespectful

If you feel you're a man go on and get your place

[quote author=poshestmina post=97647050]Lol .
Take up a responsibility instead.

If you have enough money ,drop anything you can afford at the end of the month or better still if you can drop /buy raw foodstuffs say when you get your salary or so .

I have placed my parents on monthly payments even before I got married.
5k each every month ,I got a job and made it 20k each every month since about 7 years now, if I don't have 5,7,10 EVERY month. Now including my Mother in law.

If they don't receive alerts or " hear from me", they'll be the ones asking if I'm fine or if I need help especially my dad ... Just make sure they know you know you are thinking of them.

Modified: If you have money to eat out ,why not gather it and give to your mom or sisters?






You said well.... God bless you

Oh

Orishirishi

So u are still in your mid 20s and u re feeling pompous cos your parents are sending you message,wait ooo if dem nor send u d message shay na another person pikin dem go send

Immediately I graduated from the university at the age of 24yrs, I leave my parents house because E get why?

If you really want to show them you're grown start by picking up scheduled bills such as electricity, buy foodstuff and stock up the pantry once in a while

They've been feeding you for 24 years, if you stop eating their food now it means nothing to them, kid.

This is a big problem in the world today. You have not come out to tell us of the specific excesses of your parent. You are just assuming and you are already preparing to be defensive and to carry your weight alone.

Try to be a good member of any society (home/office/church/community) that gives more that he takes from the system and you will see that this problem will disappear or at least it will no longer be as big as it sounds right now.

When I was in 300L/400L, I had no native wears so I usually run home to my father's wardrobe to borrow native wears when I had to go for weddings or similar functions. The thing is that I will always give the clothe to the laundry man before I return it to daddy's wardrobe. And this happens whether I picked the native from the laundry basket or from his wardrobe. I didn't know that daddy was impressed until my brother borrowed his shoes and refused to return it.

Try these:
If you don't have a car and you have to borrow you papa car, make sure you refill the gas tank. You will be surprised that they will beg you to take the car every time you want to go out. Take the car to the car wash once in a while if you're too big to wash it yourself.

Go to the kitchen once in a while to gist with your mummy and do things without being asked. If possible, initiate and sponsor some special meals once in a while if you can afford it.

Drive your mummy to the market or just follow her even if you people have to take public transport. You will be shocked at what you will hear from her.

Where are your younger ones? "Bribe" them, and your house-helps if you have them, (in cash and kind) before the need for it arises. Your gift will make a way for you at some point.

If you stay in your room alone, make sure that taking care of that room is your responsibility and that your being around does not burden anyone (even if you people have house maids). Now this depends on how you people are brought up.

Every once in a while, take care of some responsibilities in the house - rent, bills, maintenance, etc. Even if there are no opportunities for these, look for what you can do to "pay rent" in kind. This applies to anywhere you find yourself.

Even though you are staying with your people, treat them as well as you would love to be treated, don't take them for granted but don't forget that you are their son.

If you want respect just take on some responsibility at home... Either paying house bills or adding to groceries expenses... Mind you... You shouldn't be worried about running errands for your parents... Your responsibility will determine the kind of errands they send you

chii8:
Other than that, take the responsibility of doing one thing in the house, filling out the gas or paying Nepa bills or water bill or buying provision whenever it finishes....

Sure.

That's if you are comfortable with it, not all men will want to eat the same food being cooked, and if you are eating from your parents food, you can assist in one area or the other so you won't be a liability to them.

That's life. It shows it's time to get off their nest, that's the last option for parents to an independent and lazy Adult child who's scared to stand on his two feet. In a case like this, you make sure by all means, you do the food shopping, stock the house with food. They cook, you eat and sleep in their yard. It's as simple as that, if you eat and live for free, you should find corner and give yourself 25 strokes of the Cane
