I didn't do those two things with my niece and wish I would have. After a few weeks I started to resint cooking and cleaning up after one more person. I think having him chip in would help with that. On the plus side my Dd loves having her cousin around.

This is my concern. It's probably silly, because I have no reason to be concerned given what I know about him, but I just fear we're going to resent having another person in the house and the maintenance that comes along with that.

We have little kids (6 and 3). I work PT, DH works outside the home.

Maybe instead of asking for money, he could provide some free babysitting for you. Then you and your DH could get a little break, do some extra date nights, etc., to offset the impact of having another person under your roof.

This. Win-win. (Many internships don't pay anything these days.)

No why do people always assume is free babysitting from family members? You get what you pay for.

Op it is obvious you do not want the kid in your house. Maybe have him look into one of the colleges in town that rent out their dorms for interns. Better just tell him no.
