I'm independent already. I do the cooking, cleaning, ironing, and looking after the pets in my house. Without sounding cruel, I'm interested to know how my parents cope when I leave (my brother already is moved out at Naval College). I'll enjoy cleaning only when I have to, not because I've been told to. I'll enjoy eating what I want, when I want. I'l enjoy having my own schedule and not having to cook around everyone else's. I'll enjoy shopping for what I want to eat and not wasting money on eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes etc.
