>>310063i don't feel comfortable saying any number in particular. i remember other kids when i was in high school working part-time jobs, full night shift jobs, driving cars, living in apartments… but me i was playing video games and watching cartoons still. the transition to 'you need a job' and 'you are an adult' was painful and sudden and i was not prepared mentally. in a way im still not, i've never been independent
maybe 20-something at the absolute latest is when you shouldn't expect anything from parents. i think legally it is 18 for americans, so 20-something is quite generous. other cultures are different. i know in italy or greece sons can live with their parents and extended family for a long time and everyone is happy with the arrangement. for americans though it seems once you're 18 and graduate high school, you are on your own. 'good' normalfag parents of 'good' normalfag children help them get jobs, teach them about working, pay for their college, help them move out, help them get their first car, etc. so by 20-something, if you're a normalfag it would unusual to continue relying on your parents
but we aren't normal so what about for neet wizards? we are just lucky to have nice parents/siblings/relatives who enable our neeting. i don't think anyone of us truly expect and demand money or special treatment. if you are, i think you're a bad person. to live without working is modern royalty, we are privileged, contemporary digital kings
