My son is 18 and still lives at home while going to school. If he every decides he doesn't have to listen then he can move out and find out what real life is like. He also knows if he every disrespects his mother he'll get beat like a man. For you youngsters out there if is a HUGE difference between a boy fight and a man fight. So to all you 18 somethings out there living at home and decide I'm an adult I don't have to listen to my parents. Although I'm eating their food, living under their roof. Move out. Be an adult and make your own way in the world. I give most of you less than a month.
