I very much disagree with this. Paying your own rent means you have a place to call your own, even if someone else owns it. Paying a mortgage means you own your own property and have the ability to do whatever you want with it, even if you're tied to a bank.

At 18, you're essentially starting your life, and sometimes you need space to do that.
