When it’s time to go, it’s time to go…
That goes for a lot of things in life, and finally leaving the nest, so to speak, is a big one!
So, is this woman wrong for wanting to venture out on her own?
Read the story she wrote on Reddit and see what you think!
AITA for moving out of my parents house?
“Me, F (24) am 3 months away from turning 25.
And I am moving out of my parents house in a month.
A little bit on context:
She’s ready to branch out.
My mum had a life threatening cardiac event a year ago.
I am now trying to move out as I think it’s time I gain some independence but I also just cannot live with overbearing parents anymore.
It literally gives me physical stress and I sacrifice a lot of my life in order to help out at home.
AITA for leaving home even though my mum is technically fully recovered, she’s just dealing with the aftermath of the trauma?
She’s getting a guilt trip…
She’s asking me to stay at home because this ‘isn’t the right time’ and she’s ’asking for support’ but she’s getting quite nasty about it and is just trying to guilt trip me to no end.
I’ve kind of made up my mind that I’m leaving because I just can’t live here anymore. But I’m being made to feel so guilty and I don’t know what to do.
The flat is really nice and is only 15 minutes down the road so I would be home at least once a week so I’m failing to see the major problem.”

But it’s not healthy for anyone involved.
