dont take this the wrong way but i have a good feeling u are still in high school and you live in a very middle class, upstanding neighborhood. i myself come from the same background. let me tell u tho, when you get out htere and start working, you learn that america is a very very very very different place than the america you thought you grew up in.
not taken the wrong way. yes i am in high school. and you could say middle class. but not really an upstanding neighborhood. i dont think i know how the world is cuz i dont but i do have have money saved up from working and i am taking higher-level classes trying to improve my chances of getting into a better college and making something of my life. i do not believe i will be living with my parents by the time i turn 19 or 20.

no offence to the people still with their parents i just didnt realize it was that common... do you have plans to move out soon? or are you there to help them? just wondering.
