Two things......
I would love peoples views on adult children who still live at home and paying board. My questions are: Should these adult children (mine is almost 22) be paying board. And if so, how much? What happens in other countries? I think they should as it gets them to understand the whole thing of paying rent (when they finally move out) and how to budget (something my son is learning). My son is enjoying the luxuries of a "hotel" with cooking, cleaning and washing all done for him!! He does clean the bathroom/shower/tub but that's about it at the moment. He says he is "too busy" to do anything else:) I have said he can start paying board from the 1st of January. I am still deciding on the amount (based on his income). This is similar to pocket money - how much to pay and what do you expect in return? __________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for the comments regarding mothers an...
