Should I Move Out Or Stay? by Peteta: 9:56pm On Jan 29, 2021
Please I need advice.
I'm thinking of moving out of my parent's house to stay on my own but I'm worried about my parents as they are getting old. Most especially my dad who's not that strong.
I'm the last born as my other siblings have left and are staying on their own.
I don't have the freedom as I wanted.
What should I do?

You can look for someone to take good care of them.. Or you too can stay till when you're married you move out..

Please stay with them for now, they need you now unless you are of marriagable age. You can employ a nanny for them, don't live far from them, be checking them weekly. Don't let anyone distract you from taking care of your parents, they are our small gods

How old are you?
What kind of freedom do you seek?
Do you have what it takes to live alone?

Let me tell you, living independently is not childs play. I hope you know about the bills. You might want to consider these things first before going ahead with your plans.

You also know your aged parents need someone to take care of them and since you're still available, just stay back and look after them.

Just stay with them until you get married.

That's your indirect and direct duty as the lastborn.

Best wishes

Since you did not state the major reason why you want to move out

It's obvious is not yet time considering that your parents are old

Stay with them for a little while and discuss how they will cope if the stay alone assuming you intend packing out

Call your siblings and discuss the situation with them. The eldest among you should lead the discussion. No be only you your papa and mama born.

Everyone started from somewhere to start paying bills. Eventually he will have to start.

Caring for his aged parents is not his responsibility alone. He has older ones. They can all come together to decide on how they want to take good care of them.

Eventually everyone leaves home and tow their path as adults.

Let him speak for himself or do you know him in person? How could you possibly tell he's an adult?

He can only start paying bills only if he has a stable job which I doubt he has for now.

Whatever rocks his boat

As long as he's above adult age. And no, I don't know him personally (thanks for asking).

Op you’ve received good advice. Get together with your siblings and decide what to do.

stay with them until u are about to get married.

Start thinking of how to purchase a plot of land from ur savings while enjoying free accommodation. It's a win win for u. U take care of ur parent, save ur rent bill n be a land owner.

Instead of moving out to pay rent u may be moving into ur own house.

Who told u other siblings are not sending money to care for their parents. Money don't run errands, u can't quantify the miracle his presence brings to caring for their aged parents

It’s a pity.
What’s the need of having children if they can’t care for us at old age.
So many patents struggled day and night, they only live their lives for their kids, but when it is time to care for them, you will start hearing, am I the only child.
A 63 year old woman lost her life in the hand of her house boy, in the presence of her aged husband, she was strangled to death, here in Portharcourt, the old man couldn’t do anything because he was weak.
But , both have given birth to three sons , trained them to medical schools with their hard earned money, they were all married, both none viewed it necessary to be With their parents.
I remember one of his sons lamenting how her mom begged him repeatedly to move in with them, but he refused.

Many wife’s doesn’t want to set eyes on their mother Inlaw, it’s a pity .
One by one we all grow old and seek our kids to be around us.

I was with my mother in-law until she passed away.
Thou she was my God mother, I didn’t

At no point did I say that they don't send money. Even the older ones know that it will get to a point where he will want more freedom instead of being preoccupied with caring for the parents. It's not even a job he can do alone.

It's easy for the responsibility to be dumped on the youngest with emotional blackmail attached. But there's always an alternative that will.work for everyone.
