[quote=Anonymous]We charged both our adult kids rent. It started at $500, and were told if they weren't either in school or working (or a combo of both) full time, it would go up by $100 every three months. That was their incentive to move out. They HAD to be doing something productive (school/work) full time. No food or drink in bedroom except water. Had to do their own laundry at least once a week. Had to let us know if they'd be home for dinner (so we knew whether to make enough food for them) and had to let us know by 11pm if they'd be home that night or not. Could not wake other members of the family unless an emergency. We have younger kids, so we also had the rule of no coming home under the influence of substances. Must make dinner for the family once a week (and clean up from said dinner). Holing up in a bedroom would be completely unacceptable to us. [/quote]
