"I just wish he actually knew how to drive"

LOS ANGELES—Mothers across the country are dealing a significant blow to the takeover scene. An unexpected phenomenon has emerged, as these mothers have decided to stop paying leases for their adult children, effectively putting a halt to their ability to partake in these gatherings.


One concerned parent shared her perspective, stating, "It's time for him to take responsibility. I'm tired of hearing him say he is a drifter. I've seen his Instagram he can't even get donuts right. If they want wheels they can get a bicycle. This is a valuable life lesson. I just wish he actually knew how to drive."


This shift has left takeoverists facing a sudden reality check, pushing them to consider their choices and responsibilities. As the financial lifeline from parents dwindles, a new era may be dawning for these young adults, promoting self-reliance and shaping a different trajectory for the takeover scene.
