This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm glad I live in a country where family value is strong and still living parents is less taboo, because the rent is too damn high. Although people who came from individualistic countries are judging. I remember ten years ago I have a friend from France who is weirded out we don't move out even at twenty. But even if we want to, we have a housing crisis that persists to this day?

I think when surveyed most wanted to move out but couldn't. Though "we have stronger family values" sure is a nicer way to look at it.

Oh yeah definitely most would move out. Many of us who can afford to move out of our hometown and explore. Some don't return but many who do settle down, and live close to our parents' home from just down the road.
