Having your parents provide for you is a great luxury but it comes with the consequence of not learning alot of valuable lessons.

I am 19, I live at home and my parents provide for me a room and food. They allow me this luxury so that I can have the financial security of a nest egg when I leave home shortly.

I am proud that I can provide for myself, I think a child is still learning to.

Being in managable debt is acceptable, it is a way of having now what you need any paying a penalty of intrest to have that luxury. Someone who goes into debt paying for rent or groceries needs to find out what is wrong and take responsbility to address that issue and work past these problem. They will not learn those lessons if a parental figure helps by simply giving them money.

A good parent raises a self-suficiant person. If your possesions are not shared freely with everyone then you are not living communaly, you are living dependantly.
