When you have roommates, do you give your roommates play by play of everything you're doing? Why do they need to know he's leaving? He's left, they're aware he's gone, being told beforehand doesn't change the fact that he's leaving and will be gone. It's a weird parental control thing because they haven't acknowledged while he's their son, he's not a child anymore.

Roommates aren’t parents. And if you’re living rent free under your parents roof, I don’t think “hey I’m leaving” is too much to ask. He’s not a child anymore? He’s still living like one. I completely understand both sides. I get he wants autonomy. But being cagey and weird about a simple request is weird behavior.
