[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Me! My parents told my sibling and I that after college we could move home, but we'd be paying market rate in rent and they wouldn't be financially supporting us in any other way. Our car expenses, insurance, and life expenses were on us.

They fully funded my life through college and were loving parents. It always seemed reasonable to me. It didn't hurt that I had a solid job immediately after college, though.

My sibling took some time to settle on a career. My parents gave them a grace period to find a job and ratcheted up the rent slowly. Sibling had a decent job and moved out before rent at home reached market rate. It seemed like a decent compromise while landing on sibling's feet was a little tough.[/quote]

Identical to what my parents did. 
 
I still wish I’d had a grace period though. I scored a great job straight out of college that paid well but I had to wait on my top secret clearance to come through. Took months. My parents were very harsh about it. It was a big transition period in my mind and I have forever wished I could have that time back to relax. [/quote]
