Right now i am living with my mom and dad, i have a big room, lots of space, and i love it.
My mom wants to move to a bigger aprtment. In the area that she wants to move in, it is hard to find a roomy aptrment with lots of space. so, if they move they will get bigger aptrment, but my room most likely would be smaller.
I am 27, that means it will be hard but i can move to an aprtment i want to live in alone. Of course if i pay for an aptrment each month i will have to work more and have less time to study or even have fun.
What should i do? move with my mom and dad, or start looking for an aprtment and save moeny?

hmm. if you really want to i think you could get your own apartment. because if anything goes wrong. you could always go back to your parents. it would be nice to experiment living alone.

I agree with meleny7. Experiment with living alone for a while. I'm sure your parents will be there to help you out if you need it ^^ But remember, you have to move out at some point in your life ^_^
*All glare at Apple*
SHUT UP! I KNOW!!!!!! gonk

This Experiment of living alone will have to be for at list a year. no one rents an aprtment in Israel for less then a year.
Well paying for aprtment for a year will cost a lot of money, and i don't have all the money in advance (this mean i have to work for it all year long).
I wouldn't want to ask my parents to pay for a rent aprtment, cuz if i don't have the money i think i should live with them.
I lived once alone with a BF, and well i didn't really like it i didn't felt really free like i wanted (my bf was worse then my mom and dad, in the freedom department), and i have to take care of shoping for food cleaning the house, and other house work. The bf didn't make it simple for me.

moving with someone is never easy. but apple blossom has a good point you will have to do it some time. what you could do is for now stay with your parents but while your with your parents think of a plan that could help you get your own apartment.

I don't know if i like this plan, cuz that means i have to save money... I want to spend my money on stuff i like (going to an art class) and not an aprtment...

I want to spend my money on stuff i like (going to an art class) and not an aprtment... saving money is something that everyone should learn. it's a valuable skill. no offence, but don't you think you're a little too OLD to be living at home? and as for the living with the bf--things like that usually don't go over very well because the roommate is chosen because you get along with them, when the roomie SHOULD be chosen because they're dependable and willing to share the work. Try finding a roommate with the right qualities this time if you don't want to work so hard. they can share the rent, chores, etc, and you won't have to worry so much about mommy and daddy paying for the rent. if all else fails, then you can always go back to the parentals.

I know i am old enogh to live alone, but the thing is, if i do that just cuz i am old enough, this would be like living what looks good in other poeples eyes, and not what really good and fun for me. About the bf thing i agree he was a bad choise as roommate...

Update: My mom and dad found an aprtment that they can change, that means it wasn't built yet, so my mom can decide how it will look like. now comes the but. But, all she think about is herslf and gest. that means she wants me to have small room, allthose she can give me a big one.
I have no idea how to persuade to her to give me a big room. I feel she is takeing me for granted. She knows i don't have lots of options cuz right now i don't have enough money for my own place.
The good news is we are going to move in about a year and a half so that gives me time to gather money to move out.

First thought would be to start saving as soon as posible ... that dosen't mean don't buy what you want and all ~ it just means get less of it ... with the move date being so far in the future it should be easier to get the money ...
I personally would try saving the money by cheacking how much the rent would be each month and put about half of that away while waiting to get a place ... doing this and waiting a year and a half would give you about 9 months rent right away ... that would give you a cousion so that you wouldn't have to work quite so hard to come up with the money

Well just talked to my mom and dad, they say they are taking my needs in consideration.
I got a big room, it just seem difrent in the flat, cuz the floor tiles are bigger. they even moved to a place i have good transportaion by bus, and i am the only one in the family that steel uses the bus.
so, i guess it was just a fear, cuz i am not paying for the place. so, i guess i will stay with my mom and dad at list unteel i will finish first dgree (another 3 years). It could change, but for now i think it is the best. biggrin
Thank you all for helping!
