Exactly; people underestimate the stakes here. Not just for the sheep who's lost now but those he might lead astray.
So I wanted to do a lot of dumb shit when I was 18, but I moved out of my parents house for that reason. I'm sure I would have had some sort of gay contract had I stayed more than a couple of weeks longer. The month or so between my HS graduation and GTFO of town was difficult enough.
Oddly, some of my friends did all the same dumb shit while taking a lot longer to move out. I think parents have differing degrees of tolerance, culturally. It took some of them longer to move out than others. My one friend literally never did until he got married and his wife/wife's family bought them a house. probably not that unusual. Another friend spent his 1st 2 years of college living at home then transferred to an out of town school to finish up.
