      Bad parents might have had an influence, but I had decent parents, and I still moved to the other side of the planet at 20. Do you think you would you have been happy, staying put? 'Cause me, I wouldn’t do anything differently (well, a few things, but not related to my moving around).

        I have no desire to stay where I am personally, just a waiting game to pool together enough money to make job hunting elsewhere… viable. Cars paid off next year, that’s probably when I’ll start seriously looking

        I loved my parents, but once I was on my own I was happy to live a few hours drive away.

      Yeah horrible parents or rich parents are really the two big reasons one can move out. Otherwise there’s really no reason to do it if you’ve got your whole support and friend network in the city.
