    I don’t get it… car insurance? Medical insurance?

    What does that have to do with liking younger girls? (Assuming that’s the connection to Leo)

      Medical insurance. As a young person, you can be covered by and use your parents’ insurance until you hit 26.

      You can also be used by Leo until you hit 26, since that’s too old for him. Allegedly.

        Did they raise the age at some point in the last couple decades? I had to enroll in community college longer to keep mine when I couldn’t find a job that offered coverage and that was when I was only like 19 or 20.

          Yeah I think maybe it had something to do with the ACA. There’s a caveat which I did not mention in the other comment, and it is, of course, tax related. I do believe you have to be in a position where you can be claimed as a dependent on your parents’ taxes. So long as that’s true, you can be on their health plan until 26, at which time you have to get your own.

        For being covered by your parents’ insurance, 26 sounds surprisingly old. I would’ve expected 18
