At what age did you leave the nest

hahaha no.. I left when I turned 16!!!!!!

Well, I left for college at 18, hated it and transferred schools so I could live home again. Then at 22 I moved 3 hours away to be nearer to my boyfriend, got pregnant and moved back home again so my parents could help us out until my boyfriend graduated. We were married at 24, and moved 8 hours away, and this time it is for real. I think 20 is a good age, but don't be against going back if you want to. I am very glad I had that opportunity to get even closer to my parents before I got married.

In my coutry, we are still dependent to our parents untill college. Or as long as we didn't find a job. We separate after married

I moved out at 18, got married and have two wonderful children. But with college becoming more & more of a neccessity, living with your parents until you finish high school is turning into staying with your parents until you graduate college. So 20 is a good age for how life is in this day & age.

I left when I was 17. It was right for me, though, although it wouldn't be right for most. I went through many hard times while I was younger and ended up growing up a lot faster than I should have. Being at home was a mess for me. My mother and I didn't get along well due to neglect/abuse problems when I was younger and I couldn't stand living there. Moving out was the best thing I ever did. For you personally, whether it's too early depends on a few things. Do you have a steady job that makes enough to support yourself? Have you looked into getting your own place? Can you care for yourself? Do you have a vehicle (or at least access to public transportation)? Things like this are important to ask yourself before making the final decision to move out.

I left at age 19 when I got married. Been married for 6 years now and I feel like I've always been married.

I left my home when I was 15 to go to boarding school, since than, I havent lived with my parents except on summer vacation while I was in school.

I left at 18. I don't think 20 is too late at all!

well, i'm still under my mother's wings until now. :]

At 29 I bought the nest and put my mom into it,lol.

I was pushed out when I was 18. Luckily I had learned how to fly before I was kicked out.

You will know when the time is right. If your parents are willing to let you stay, stay, unless it is causing problems with you and them.

i left at 13 years old.. well good xperience to be on ur own

I was 19 when I left home. I left because I had my son then. I think if I hadn't had him, I would have probably waited longer. As it happens, I ended up movine back when I was about 21 or 22, so 19 may have been too early (I won't say for certain because there were a lot of things which led to the situation) but then I left home again at 24 which I think was a good age. I don't think it really matters. If you're ready at 20, go for it. There's no reason not to if you can afford to.

I was living on my ownat the ripe old age of 17 back in 1961

I think 18 to 23 is the age to leave our nests.It is not too early and not too late.It is the right time.Go a head.

I havent left the nest you know that whats up.

I left at 18 and my girlfriend left at 17.

I left at 18, I dont think 20 is too early. I think its fine. just the right time. if you have an income and can support yourself hats off to you :) good luck and congrats!
