I live in Finland, and it's very common to move out as soon as possible, which is often after graduating from secondary education (i.e. upper secondary school or vocational school). That's roughly at the age of 18. Of course there's some variance to this, and some move out earlier, some later. I'm not entirely sure about social acceptance regarding living with your parents, but I think it's thought unconventional and possible looked at a bit oddly if you're living with your parents much longer than what's typical. For example, living with your parents at the age of 25 would probably be considered a bit odd. At 30, you'd probably be considered a loser unless you had a really good reason for living with your parents.

But this is what I see. Upper classes in poorer countries people tend to depend on their parents for longer than for example young adults in 1st world countries like Finland. I mean, how much a brazillian 18 year old would make whitout college level? Around 1000 BRL if he`s lucky and working 44h per week. That`s plan poverty, or at least would be considered so in a 1st world country. 

In Poland it's similar to Brasil. It's normal to live with your parents and get money from them till you finish your education, since that's the first moment you can actually get a job that allows you to cover your bills. I think it's plain economics of countries that are poorer than the 1st world, where you can be a waiter or bartender and earn more than college graduates in other countries. All that with prices being disgracefully similar in both groups of countries.
