I'd say the same even extends to things like houses the way I'm seeing it pan out with a few friends of mine... Sucks because parents are the only way they're able to afford a home

Mr Peeler would agree. He bought a house with his mum years ago, and it was his home to live in, they lived a couple of suburbs away. She felt it was her right to go in, use her key, no notice or knocking, anytime she damn well pleased. It caused a massive rift which echoes to this day.

One of my cousins who already has a tense relationship with her parents is about to go into this and I feel like I'm about to watch a train crash happening in slow motion
