Did your parents move after you graduated ha?

[thinkofthesoldiers]

Yep. A few different times from the time I graduated from HS until I graduated from college. Nothing makes you feel better about "going home" than having to call and ask directions.

[EmilieMadison]

No. Although I graduated from HS 13 years before my youngest sibling did. 
But they're still there and he's been out of HS for several years. 

[MixedBerryJam]

No, but I'm planning to sell the moment my younger one is out of college. Both kids are already bent out of shape over this. I love my house and property but I cannot wait to say good riddance to my last snowflake!

[Champagne Supernova]

My parents moved while I was deployed. I didn't even get the chance to pack up my room.

When I went home, all my stuff was in boxes and I think I still have stuff buried in my parents's garage because I'm missing a bunch of books. It's gonna be a pain in the ass to find them.

[sarahswim]

Yes.  My parents moved to a larger house after all of the kids were married.  Now they have more room for everyone!... they say.  

[sandyapples]

My parents moved when I was in high school and again about 10 years later.

ETA: They moved from a tiny town of 500 to a small town of 6000 to a hobby farm, all in the same general area.

[notoriousmeg]

They moved from NJ to Fla when my younger sister graduated. They kept their beach house in NJ though, so I still have a house to go "home" to.

[azurely]

No, but they are thinking of downsizing soon. My brother and I both lived there at some point during college (mostly summers) and after I graduated, for a few months. It still feels like home to me, but I'm worried that their new house won't Not that that is a reason for them to stay, I'm just being nostalgic about it.

[leeann]

No, but I'm the oldest. They sold after the youngest of us moved out.

[LaceyV]

Yup. They put the house up for sale the day of my senior prom, and by time I got home from the shore on Sunday it was sold. We moved a week after my graduation, 2 towns over. Then after my sister graduated hs we moved back to my hometown. I moved out shortly after that to another town and H and I just moved back to our hometown this past week. Clearly I am never leaving this town because I keep ending up here.

[mrsukyankee]

Nope. My dad and SM still live in the house (bought when I was 7).

[olegregg]

We moved the day after I graduated hs.

[Deleted]

No,my parents are in the same house. I still have a room there, and yet it still doesn't feel like my home anymore (didn't even before H and I bought our own home). That's unavoidable.

[Deleted]

No, they bought the house when I was ten and added a huge section when I was fifteen. They're pretty invested.

I wish they'd take better care of it, it's way too big for two people. They're getting better (I won't go into it but it took a huge dumpster lol), I'm so proud of them for that. And this sounds douchey, but they're 52 and not ailing and still working FT so there's not much excuse. My sister and I should help more with the clearing out though, we acknowledge that.

[wambam]

My parents moved after I graduated college. But it was to one town over. And it really didn't have anything to do with me completely moving out. My mom retired and my dad started working exclusively from home, so they wanted to live on the golf course and have their ultimate dream home.

[Deleted]

Yeah. Not necessarily on purpose though. It was just another transfer.

[bcv513]

Nope. My parents still live in their "starter" house they bought when I was five. It's paid off now so they're not going anywhere. I love that house and still think of it as home.

[CheshireGrin]

Nope. My parents still live in the same house that they bought before we were born. My old bedroom is my dad's office now though. I actually have my old bed in the guest room in my current home.

[CurlyQ284]

Nope but they bought their house in 89 when this area was rural. If they sold it, they could buy a townhouse for the same price. It doesn't make sense for her to move unless they leave the area. Our rooms don't look like ours anymore though, they look like guest rooms.

[shell24]

No. My mom is still in the house I grew up in and I'm almost 35.

Selfishly I love it but it's too much for her and she needs to sell it.

[tigress]

They moved the summer between my freshman and sophomore years in college.

[auntie]

My parents sold the larger house we lived in after I got married, my sister was already married and a mom by that point. Neither of us had a "room" after that, but my nieces did for a time.

They downsized to a condo and hated it. They built another large family home. And then they bought a house near the beach/golf with plans to retire there. I bought the family house they built after the condo and they took the proceeds from that and the beach house to build a nicer new golf house which they love but hate the neighborhood so they spend half the year in a little Golden Girls rancher they bought for a song in FL. Now they're talking about selling both and buying a condo on the beach in FL for fulltime.

My mother's sister owns the house in which my mother and her dad grew up. Until a few years ago, the phone bill was still in my great grandmother's name. She would have been about 155 when they transferred it over to my aunt's name.

My DH's mom maintained her same house until she died. Each of her boy's rooms were left exactly as they were when they went off to college- DH's even had the Life magazine from that week on the nightstand.

[underwaterrhymes]

Yep. We moved from my childhood house in the 6th grade, and then to my stepdad's house my senior year of high school. They stayed there for almost 20 years, and then moved to Florida 2 or 3 years ago.

The only house I feel nostalgic about is my childhood one and only because I had a kickass Halloween party there one year.

[valetgirl]

Nope. Their kids all moved back after undergrad for varying periods while completing additional schooling. They were in no rush for us to leave. Lol

[circa1978]

They did and they're about to move again. We move a lot though, compared to some people it seems. My mom really enjoys shopping for houses and gets the itch to move pretty regularly. This will be her seventh house since I was born - three with my bio-dad, one alone, three with my stepdad.

[joenali]

No. We moved when I was 14, so they definitely were not going to move again. Their house is huge and I'm sure that they will be moving in the next couple of years. It's just my mom and stepdad and the dog in a house with 4 unneeded bedrooms.

[bluetopaz]

My dad still lives in the same house they bought before my sister and I were born.

Dad did major renovations to it after my mom died (kind of as a way to start fresh without having to leave "our" house) so it's not really the same house I grew up in. I tell myself it will make it easier when we inevitably have to sell it some day, but I'm not sure I believe that, lol.

[Deleted]

No. My mom is still in my childhood home, alone, and she will never sell it because my brother will live there one day. I own the house next door, and the land above my mom's house, so it is sort of a compound in the country. I doubt I'll ever live there, but it is sort of my insurance if I ever lost my job/wanted to leave DH/whatever.

[RoxMonster]

No. My parents are still in the same house they lived in before I was born. They are redecorating/renovating it over the course of a few years with the intention of selling it and downsizing to a condo eventually.

[noodleskooze]

N/a--they divorced my freshman year of college. My mom still lives in our house because I still have siblings; my dad moved like 10 minutes away in the same city.
