[quote=Anonymous]My cousins (mom’s nephew) stayed with us for a long time when he was a grad student. There were some ground rules on neatness, etc, but other than that it was completely free to him and my parents spent lavishly on him while he frequently cooked for them. But, my parents are very comfortable financially so this was fine for everyone. In your situation i think maybe something like a roommate without rent is what makes sense. Like you’ll let you sibling know if you need help with utilities, you’ll set neatness/schedule/etc expectations up front and you’ll shop/cook for yourselves or grocery shop from an account that you contribute to equally. I feel like major changes to utility costs should be on your roommate and their food. [/quote]
