Should One Independence From Their Parents As Soon As Possible? Many contend that one should independence from their parents as soon as possible and are willing to defend this idea. Paradoxically, there are those who argue that it's better to live with their families for a longer time. Indeed both sides have strong points in their favor. However, as far as I'm concerned they have advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, If you decide to become independent from your parents, you will have a huge responsability. In my case I had no choice, but to live by my own because, my father kicked me out from my house when I was 18 years old. Even though it may sound gloomy or sad, it is not entirely since, I learned a lot of things, one of them was to take care of me financially. I remember that I had to study and work when I was at the university, without a doubt to learn how earns a living enriched me. Another advantage to live alone is that you have an inconceivable freedom to do whatever you want, when you want. For instance, I used to gather with my friends in order to have fun either on weekdays or weekends. Finally, Loneliness enables you to ponder your life,as well as to discover who are you because Loneliness is a mirror which don't lie. On the other hand, I imagine that living for long time with your parents it's also quite advantageous because, tender love is always with you. Furthermore you will be never alone. In my view that is beneficial when you have troubles, for instance on one ocassion I suffered the terrible pain of being cheated by a woman and the last thing that I wanted was to be alone. A loving family will always give you comfort to overcome an agonizing event . Living alone certainly provides independence and freedom. However, It is also a difficult situation because, you have many responsabilities and nobody will do them for you
