Answer 1

You can do whatever you want.

Your mom is scared of you leaving the nest.

Sit down and have a talk with her, so she can see were you are coming from too.

Answer 2

It sounds like you're on the right track. Certainly your Mom will understand that you're an adult & if you're nearby, that should help her through the transition.

Answer 3

Your 23. Your a big girl, you can make decisions on your own now.  

Answer 4

Well, you're an adult so I don't see anything wrong with that.  You're mom is most likely scared and sad to see you go...

Answer 5

Your doing the right thing..its time to spread the wings and fly.  Your mom will just have to get over it.

Answer 6

You are 23. If you want to move out, your mom can't stop you. The only thing that can stop you is if you can't help but live for your mom and not yourself. Do what you want to do.

Answer 7

You should sit down with your mom and tell her that you are 23.  That you get to make your own decisions and that you get to do what you think is right.  Remember to tell her this calmly and don't sound like you're angry.  But also be firm.  Tell her that you will still talk to her and see her every once and a while.  She probably just doesn't want to let go of you.

Answer 8

it's none of your mothers business.

you are an adult. you should be in your own place.

Answer 9

Your at the legal age but it's normal that your mom will disagree about your decision... Maybe she's just afraid if you can handle things on your own... "Mother knows best" but still you must do the things that you think can help you to improve yourself... Even though she has gained much experiences from you there are still things that you experienced that she dont... You must both learned from each others and try to have not just the mother-daughter relationship but much more of having a bestfriend relationship... Good Luck!...

Answer 10

You're 23, your Mum can't tell you waht to do. Go look at apartments :)

Answer 11

Well, it took me a long time to find a suitable house for me because I can be quite picky, buts that me. 23 is an alright age to move out but it can also depend on how independent you are. If you mom is against the idea of you moving out, listen to her. She is just being protective. I think her main concern is your safety, you can try getting house mates for that. Also it is absolutely fine to be looking at houses on the internet, it's good to be prepared and you can get an idea of the prices.  Listen to your mom she have experience.

good luck <3.
