Most parents are expecting you to be able to support yourself after you turn 18 because most likely their parents did the same to them when they turned 18. Therefore they believe it is their "duty" to do the same.

Why do parents care less about their adult children when they turn 18?

We don t love you any less but you have a responsibility to care of yourself. As parents we would hurt you if you paid your debts, supported you etc without letting you fight your own battles. That is growing up. Do not mistake caring for a child for caring for an adult. You are supposed to be like us now and we will get old and frail and need you to be the stronger one. That is how we raised you. And we still treat you as kids at 18, most of us, and do not expect everything from you quiet yet, we are waiting for getting a job, graduating from college etc.


How does childhood trauma affect depression in adulthood?

It could do but it is more how well your relationships are with your parents, peers and close family members as a child and as an adult that affects depression in later life. People who experience a traumatic experience either as a child or an adult and have people in their lives who can support, love, listen to and encourage them to seek help or help themselves in a positive way and who are consistently there to rely on are less likely to be depressed or adversely affected by that experience. For someone affected by a traumatic experience as a child positive social interaction and support from people at the time of the experience is key to help them recover and grow up to be a healthy and well-adjusted adult.


What does my dream mean parents coming out of my house?
