Incredible128:I tire o I was very surprised seeing all the above comments saying a 20 year old should move out till I came across ur comment. This is how they promote crime. How do they expect a 20 years old to fend for himself. How many of them left home at 20 2 Likes |

Greattestman: What she is saying is that you have to start paying her for some services. So out of your 25K. Give her 10K ( You get free laundry, free food, free accommodation) It seems you have not been appreciative or giving back. 1 Like |

Greattestman:good idea. She should pay the first rent and support you with other stuff like bed and stove with two pots, you will hustle the rest. It will teach you to save and expand your earning potential. It's hard but you will survive |

At 20? With how much salary? Heck, you are still very young and need some vigilance/supervision. How does she want you to cope and pay rent and other miscellaneous bills on such expenditures? You had better disregard those people telling you to take the bull by the horn and become independent against your wish. It's all bunkum. You need stable finances to be independent fully. With your salary, you can barely do much. Your mom is not futuristic-thinking and thoughtful at all. I will always say this, parents should be intentional about parenting in all aspects of it. A good parent will not do this. She wants you to assume responsibility, but it's too early to be all that. You can be responsible without living all by yourself and that's if you have been a good son and also been self-reliant. If you have, then your mom isn't nice. Sad. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Rubbiish: There are 2 sides to a story, a mum just doesnt ask child to move out. She said " leave me alone " which means 1. She had him young and has had to fend for child 2. He's earning money yet does not contribute anything to the house up keep. 3. Still asking her for minor expenses which he should be able to pay for himself. |

Emmex45:30k enough for him? 30k * 12month is 360k now minus rent money every month, let say rent of 100k. That is 260k left for a year. The kind of hunger that will finish him. 1 Like |

SmartyPants: I beg to differ, please. Parents owe their kids everything until they die. Proverbs 13:22: “A good man (parent) leaves an inheritance to his children.” People should learn to hold parents accountable for their responsibilities. How do you expect someone with a paltry salary of 20,000N to lean on himself without depending on another? Let's stop trying to force kids to be adults against their wishes. 2 Likes |

Greattestman: I'm 20, too. I stopped staying at home frequently, when I was 12 or so - I'm not proud of this, infact it still hurts. I never enjoyed my childhood. I finally left home when I just turned 16 for some st*pid nwaboi apprenticeship, which stung me so hard because I did it - to please people. It wasn't my dream. Now I'm 20 and I live alone, no girlfriend, no friend, just me. I haven't seen my momma for almost 5 years. What can I do? I guess, it's my destiny but after all these pains - I rather die rich or die trying. Crazy thing is, I'm contemplating moving to Lagos if I don't reach my goal of saving up for a laptop and starting up some online business. OP, you're old enough to live alone. I wouldn't interfere with the decision, you'd finally reach - it's your move. 1 Like |

At 18yrs you are responsible for your life. You need to get a friend to start with if you income cant get you a room. When I wanted to leave my mother she refused. Until her pastor said it was a right decision that was when she accepted my decision. Thank God for your mum that is willing to let you go. From what I have seen in life,I can boldly say the love of a mother can blind one but in your own case her love set you free to take responsibility for your life. |

rickleye:Where were u at 20? At 20 this boy should be in school studying, not being pressured to assume the position of a breadwinner. He is still young! These things u listed are no fault of the boy & the blame should not be shifted to the poor boy. He is not responsible for his mom having him early, him keeping his earnings at this age is very excusable. Pushing that boy out at this stage is very unfair. He deserve to be happy like every other kid his age in school out there. 1 Like |

UyaiIncomparabl: Well you cant force any parent to feel that way. So since his own doesnt feel like that, he must adjust. He'll be a stronger man for it. |

The op is not telling us everything and we should not expect him to. Usually it is the father that tells a boy to leave. Moms are usually spoiler and protectors of their sons. If you are already giving her half of your salary, that is encouraging. The other thing I can think of is if you are in the way, between her and her partner. 20 years old is too young to push out without support. He should be in college. 1 Like |

Romanoff:What bills?? The parents are failing! A 20 years old boy should be in school studying, any money he is making should be for his personal use, if he wishes to give to his parent fine, but he is not under any obligation to do so! African parents put too much expectation on their kids, reason crime rate is extremely high in this part of the world. Many of these kids into crime are as a result of pressure from parents, most especially mothers! Putting undue pressure on kids, comparing them with other children. A mother is already pushing a 20 years old to assume the position of a breadwinner & people are supporting it. In a country where adults with degrees are finding it difficult to stand. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Greattestman: Your mom is tired of parenthood. She's just feeling overwhelmed about life. She's lost it as a parent. I can only advise you to be focused with a strong determination to make it in life. Live responsibly and you will be fine. Naturally, you are not supposed to leave now because you barely know how to navigate life, but if you have to leave, just make sure you put your head down and live responsibly. 1 Like 1 Share |

Well for me I like the mother concept The only thing you can do is to tell her to give you some time let's say like two to three months and you can get a room along the line and start buying little stuff inside it while you stay with her. Opinion |

UyaiIncomparabl:That is how they force kids into crime There is higher chances of that boy going into crime to survive once he moves out. Most parents don't give kids the necessary foundation they need to stand before moving out. What they are unable to do as adults, they expect a kid to do it |
Re: My Mother Wants Me To Rent My Own House by Bobbiee: 4:29pm On Nov 18, 2022 |
Can't you contribute in the house? I know what's going on. She's the one bringing all the money for rent and bills and food while you spend your own money lavishly on clothes and ashawo. If you were living with roommates do you think you'd be able to live like this? Share your bills equally and you'd be respected in the house. 1 Like |

UyaiIncomparabl: That's why i suggested he talk with her and make a plan. He can save up and leave and she may be more patient when she sees that he has plans. Abi is it until she changes the locks on him? Many people have it far worse and they survive so this guy must take his life by the scruff of the neck and grow. Now, would i do this to my kid?

Hmmm, she is not a good mother at all. She should even happy, you are not a wayward child. But on the other hand, see is as a challenge. Teaching job can never make you a successful person in this country. Look for company sales rep and hustle from der and God might divinely connect you to your destiny helper 1 Like |
