Solitude

Two of my cousins who are in their 20s will be moving out of their respective parents’ homes to start living on their own. It is a big decision for both of them because both grew up being pampered by their parents. When we were together about two months ago, we got to talk about being independent. An older cousin of ours who grew up pampered just like them is already married now, has four kids and still relies and depends on her parents for almost everything. We all do not want another occurrence of this in our family. Being one of the older cousins, I was adamant that the younger ones will not end up like our Ate Espie.

I am helping them move out. I am calling boston moving companies to help them out with the actual move. I am proud of these kids because they have stepped up. They are already working and they figured out it is high time for the both of them to get out of their comfort zones and start being independent. Both are boys and I told them they don’t want to end up depending forever on their parents. They should start practicing being man of the house.
