    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.
