it wl vary for every individual depending on various factors. however a sense of independence should be there from an early age,
Re: Parents support
There is no best age, there’s a best time - when you start earning yourself. I’m 22 and still dependant on my parents. Once I start earning myself, that’s when I will be able to live an independent life.
However, if you’re earning enough at <18 years of age, you should really stay with your parents unless you’re hit-girl.

the earliest the better...!!!

I also completed my education at the age of 21 and right after that start working full time, even though my father was passed away when I was 18.

This must have made you and your family much stronger although its very very difficult. May Allah Swt provide your dad the best place in Jannah.
Children who have lost their fathers early on have no other choice but to be independent as early as possible. I had been helping my dad in his business since the age 17 and continued to work after he passed away. My younger bro was just 17 when we lost our dad and since then he has been working full time along with completing his studies. So we have no other choice but to work and be independent.

**i'm asorry to hear about ur loss...May Allah BLESS his soul and place him in Jannat ul Firdaus...aameen
r u the oldest son/daughter in your family? if yes, then i can understand how pressing the needs are and how the oldest child becomes the head of the family and accepts, with a smiling face, all the responsibilities that come with it.**

Thanks for your prayers. Ameen.
Yes I am the oldest child. And I feel the responsibilities to such an extent that I cannot even cry in front on my mom or my younger siblings as they can get hurt and torn, and I had even delayed my marriage because of my responsibilities, but I do not have any regrets and it gives me satisfaction to see my younger siblings now settled in their lives. So yes the oldest child has to face all the responsibilities and they are fortunate if they have young siblings who know their responsibilities.

Allah will grant him higher status in jannah.
as an orphan, we have lot of soft corner from Allah because He listens the need/prayer of orphan directly.

Ameen. But this world is cruel and I have seen such changed faces of people (relatives to be more precise) after my father's death. We can only pray that we are able to survive in this cruel world.
