I love my Mom, and Dad, but I couldn't handle living with them again. (My husband wouldnn't like it either!)
Same here. I went to college at 16, moved back home briefly afterwards at 20, then went out on my own 6 mos later and never moved back.
And it wasn't because of partying, sex etc - I just HATE being dependent on anyone and can't tolerate having people checking on me every hour and snooping around in my stuff. My parents still treated me like I was 10 yrs old when I was there, even though I was working, doing chores, paying rent to them, etc.
And even though I was really poor for awhile and living in a basement that flooded when it rained so I had to keep my stuff up off the floor I was happy being on my own.
I love my parents but during that brief period of time I lived with them after school I couldn't even go to the mall without them bugging the hell out of me about it (and I went just to get out of the house, not to shop!!).

I didn't like my parents all that much when I was a kid, but I love my daughter's parents.
