When you move out you need to have a whole kitchen suplies series and a few cookbooks if you are going to cut down on costs. And to not know how to cook is going to be expensive due to take outs and resturants. So think about this for a while.

Don't get a job just anywere, if you are likely to get robbed each day or each week you will loose alot of money. Try to find a job that is a bit more plesant. You will only make your family angry and sad and seems like this is the last thing you need in your situation. To move out you need to do it the right way. Otherwise I think it will only get worse. I am not saying that boys that are 18 shall stay home and be a part of the family just because they are immature.

What you need to think about is what do you do at home that are about cleaning up, cooking food and all the rest the normal mother does. Can you fix anything broken?

I find this knowing to do house work is even a bigger part then income to take in, when you move out. And the kitchen supplies are really expensive if you don't have any at start. I guess that in Sweden it costs arround 3000 € to move out and about 250 - 500 € of kitchen supplies. Funitures and such is expensive. So the first sum to pay is high and you got to know where to find those money. And if you buy an appartment it is higher. Sure you can get any place to start with. But this first sum of money is really high at times.

This is the practical stuff you need to know and to count in. I know (I got my kitchen supplies every birthday and christmas from the day I was born to the day I turned 18 and I am so very happy to have got it before I moved out, because when I look at the prizes for just the tiny things I get shocked, I rather live with old fasioned stuff then the cost of buying a new kitchen) because I moved out 3 years ago and I was 22 at the time. So take it from me.

Love Leelene
