I'm 19... Living with my parents... FULL TIME College Student... Although I am moving out this coming Fall... I am welcome to stay here (the parents claim I am) as long as I want to...
Living on your own is difficult, that's if you don't have a good job... especially if your working just to pay bills... idk.. that's my opinion...
Anyways, everyones situations are different... I have friends who moved out as soon as they graduated highschool, and like I mentioned... they are working a bit more than minimum wage jobs, and they complain how all of their paycheck goes to food, apartment, necessities, car payments and college tuition... as a full time student, I wouldn't be able to take that risk... I'm just glad my parents are extremely supportive! ...and I will re-inverse them one day!

Everyone's situation is different. We are not here to bash other members about their living arrangements, we are here to talk about bags.
Let's get back on topic.
Thanks
I agree with you completely. I NEVER judge others on their decisions and think it's terrible for some of us to be doing so. Everyone's situation is different. Let's not judge one another shall we? I am grown, 30, and don't live with my Parents, haven't for 11 years, but don't plan on putting someone down because they do. Let's just talk about bags!
Thanks for quoting that guinness! I didn't even see that sly comment. Yes, I'm 23, and no, I do not live at home. I will, however, be moving back home for a few months, but that's not because I'm immature or irresponsible. And you are not talking to a wall, I just do not agree with what you have to say, and if you think that is a wall, then you are mistaken. I think Zombie and brandie are right, and we need to get over this topic of age and living with parents, weren't we talking about Chanel and Suze Orman?

^^That is called growing up. Reality sucks sometimes. We can't all be like Carry Bradshaw... Sometimes in your life you have to work to just pay the bills.

^^But at least they are trying. Their hard work will pay off and one day they will look back and be proud of theirselves for everything they did. I know I am!
My parents wanted me to stick around after high school because I am the youngest, but I moved as far away from them as I could. They helped with the cost of school and tuition, but I worked two jobs and paid my own way (apartment, food, clothing, car, insurance, etc) and found myself. At times, it really SUCKED. But, looking back, I work harder and I know the value of things. Yes, I like to treat myself...but when I do, it is within reason. I know about how many hours I would have to work to earn something, and that keeps me purchasing only things that I need or REALLY REALLY want, and not everything that I like.
I have found that when you do things on your own, without help, it is incredibly rewarding.
So...how bout them bags? What is your next purchase going to be?
Hmm..I don't know how some of my response got nested in with Viva's quote. This part of the quote is mine:

There is a huge difference between you and the others I am referring to. You are in college full time. I beleive that when my children are going to school full time, that is their job and we will pay for everything (tuition, car, insurance, food, etc - and then summers they will work for extra money). Once they graduate or go down to part time, they are on thier own.
Just like right now, my 2nd grader gets paid for his 100's. Why? because it is his job to go to school. If he were getting bad grades and slacking off, he would be paying us for those grades.
I graduated college with a degree and my parents paid for me while I was in school, and maevy you said that you would do the same for your children. I did work during my summers. I pay my bills now, and I have very few expenses because I don't have things that need to be paid for. I don't have a car because I do not drive (I live in the city), and I live with my boyfriend (who pays our rent), therefore I can buy myself what I like, and no one in my life complains to me about it, so I don't understand how I am being singled out. I think it's immature that anyone would say negative things in a forum that is supposed to be fun for everyone, not a place for people to feel uncomfortable. I have tried several times to get us back on topic, but it seems that this conversation about being a certain age/living with your parents/buying yourself things continues. I think we need to end this discussion so that no one has to keep repeating themselves, and obviously get nowhere. Some people do not have the same views and I think those need to be respected, not attacked.

I think getting back on topic is a good idea, but sly jabs and comments aren't necessary either, and with that, I'm not going to give this discussion any more fire. I'm all for an intellectual conversation, but this is a post about a Chanel bag and whether a girl should buy one, so I wouldn't try to make a remark about "price tags", when really the whole topic started with $650.

I think I figured it all out... You must be one of those people that have to have the last word... That's fine... We can't all be perfect like you. I guess since you were offended and felt singled out we should all just quit talking about the topic... In the beginning I said she should buy the bag...
If you are/were so uncomfortable you should just read the post and move on... You dont have to whine...
