In many nations, young people decide to move out once they graduate from school and share a rented place with friends. In my opinion, this has both benefits and drawbacks.
Living by themselves helps young people to become more independent. First, they will learn the value of money management. As they are given money to pay for bills such as the rent, electricity bills, telephone fees and food. If they overspent on food they would not be able to pay for other bills. Second, they will learn how to manage time. Living on their own, in addition to study/work, playing and sleeping, young people have to do the cooking and washing themselves. If they overslept or overplayed, they would have to go without food or clean clothes. So they have to plan a timetable and follow it.
However, young people usually feel lonely. When they finish a day of work/study, they often return to their house, with no loved ones to share the good news as well as problems. Second, they can easily play with the wrong friends and may become addicted to drugs and alcohol. If they do not manage money carefully/wisely, they will probably not have enough money to pay the rent, which may result in being evicted. Then they will probably need to borrow money. A big debt may push them into doing things illegally, for example, selling drugs.
In conclusion, school leavers moving out of their parents’ house to start living on their own will possibly help them to become more independent. However, the drawbacks of this should not be overlooked.
