I didn't want to put this in the teen section because i want older women to give me their opinion.
Is it a bad idea to want your own place at 17? Atm i live with my mum and dad and matt lives with his, but matt stays here most times. My room is tiny so for when the baby comes we have decided we are going to convert the front room downstairs into a living/nursery space for us and the baby. Its not a huge room but its an ideal size for us and baby. The thing is, when the baby is here i know we are going to be jumping from house to house. I want to live here, but of course matts family is going to want to see baby and we are going to stay at his some nights too, i suppose i don't mind, but i think it just messes things up.
I think things would be so much easier if we had our own place, do our own things and have our own routines. But i know for a fact when we are jumping from mine to his house, it wont stick. I don't want my baby to be having to sleep in different houses all the time, i want him/her to have their own house, their own space and so on. It makes it harder when matt and his brother share a room, and his brother already having a baby of his own! We'll be having to arrange times and dates, see when his brothers girlfriend and baby dont stay over so we can, and i really dont want that!
My mum and dad really don't want me to move out, and matt doesn't either. I'd just feel so much more comfortable in my own house, i could do things my own way without my mum and dad or matts mum and dad in the way, we could feel like a propa family without having nan and grandad in our faces all the time.
Does anyone understand what im saying? I know people say moving out at a young age is a bad idea, but i really would love to
