For better or worse, parents bring children into the world. Children between the ages of eighteen should be allowed to learn from their mistakes at their parent's house, where those mistakes need not have such a devastating impact on individuals.

However, a son or daughter may interpret their parents' eviction as a sign of a lack of love, but some parents who force their children to move out are doing so for other reasons. Even if your teen's behavior does warrant eviction, parents shouldn't make that decision without giving it serious thought.

When parents have already thought of any possible means to correct their child's behavior, they sometimes resort to sending their children away as a last resort before seeking professional assistance themselves. However, misconceptions that a young person who has no other options besides working or going to school will choose one of these happens.

When troubled youth are unable to even maintain a stable living situation at home, their problems only continue to escalate. One of the skills that will enable a child to get through a challenging period in his life is strength.

Removing a troubled adolescent from home is not only counterproductive but also tends to leave you with nothing more than a mountain of guilt. However, evicting your adolescent won't give him or her the structure that he or she needs to develop into the responsible adult that they can still become.

In homes with troubled teenagers, it's not uncommon to see expressions of distress, anxiety, resentments, and even more repulsive emotions, such as brief bursts of rage or hate. These are transient feelings that won't last forever.

Negative long-term effects may result from coercing your adolescent into sleeping on the street, like how this Redditor had suffered when he was kicked out of their home. Although he managed to survive on his own, his experience wasn't easy, and he refused to see his dying father.

OP revealed that he never wanted to see his parents.

After living alone, struggling and eventually being able to live comfortably, his family contacted him.

"He's an adult, he's old enough to die on his own."

Your feelings are valid; you don't have an obligation to forgive him.

"He is not owed a visit."

Well, this one's a great idea, too.

"They are mere strangers."

He probably just want to make himself feel better before dying.

Him dying is not a consent for your approval and forgiveness upon his request.

"He should have treated you better."

This may answer her questions too, for her own peace, right?

"You owe him nothing."

Do not ever feel guilty.

"Worst Parenting."

You did well in surviving.

"He was always responsible for his own actions."

Your choice.

"Do what you need to do."

Now they're checking if you're coming or not? Nah.

You became his karma. Made from his own blood.

Abusive is still ABUSIVE!

"He reaped what he sowed."

Adulting life isn't easy and parents should guide their children on this journey since they are the ones who have already had the experience of what it's like. It's alright to teach children to be independent, but it should be done in a positive manner.

Do you have similar experiences or know anyone who was also kicked out from home? You can comment down below on how things turned out for them.
