      In the US, the insurance should have continued until 26.

      Are you sure your parents didn’t drop you and blame the insurance?

      Edit: I’m assuming you’re in the US because of the lousy healthcare, but I suppose you could be in some other shithole country.

        FYI this doesn’t apply to Tricare (military healthcare), it’s 21 in that case (with exceptions for full-time students).
