[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not unusual, but honestly going to college doesn't seem like "moving out" to me. Its like the summer camp equivalent of moving out or the study abroad equivalent of being an expat. Sort of cosplay adulthood. I am not knocking it obviously but its less "real world". Even though I paid for my crappy summer rentals and what not, I didn't feel "moved out" until I graduated and got a FT job and rented by own (slightly nicer ) apartment with my roommate.[/quote]
I agree, I wouldn't count going to college as moving out.  You still come home on breaks, the summer, presumably have Mom and Dad supporting you financially.  To me, "moving out" is you are on your own for the most part.  Not an inbetween step like college.[/quote]
How privileged of you. [b]Many people pay for their own college. [/b]So no, it's not an in-between step. [/quote]
Not anymore they don’t. With exorbitant amount of tuition and the low limits on student loans, paying for college isn’t like when you went. [/quote]
