    Oh fuck off. The kid didn’t just appear one day and start eating their food and using their electricity. You are legally required to provide if you have a kid. You don’t get a medal, and you sure as fuck aren’t owed anything.

          I’m convinced you’re the neck beard, with how much edge you’re trying to cut me with.

          Charging rent to your kid is the best way to guarantee they live with you longer. If you take their money, they have no money to move out.

          Dumbass.

            Well, no. If a kid is paying money either way, they might decide they want privacy. My parents started charging my sister rent, the next month, she moved out. At some point, enabling your kids is hurting them more than helping them

              Now how many kids move out with no money because their parents are overbearing control freaks who think because they had sex one time 20 years ago means they have a slave.

              Edit: I also feel I should add that living with your parents as an adult was very common until the last 40-50 years. The only reason it became the “norm” was, because of how good the economy was, young adults could actually afford to leave their parents at that age.
