yup.... for the most part, esp in my culture and being a female, you stay at home and move out when you get married, start a new family life... not saying it always happens, b/c my sisters got her own house and not married, and i didn't live at home for college, and I lived in ny for a little bit on my own... but it just makes things easier in a way.... i still do what i want for the most part in my house, if i want my friends to come over whenever, I can, the basement's finished and it's like an apartment, kitchen, bathroom, shower, a couple of rooms...
