[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would ask him to pay a small amount in room and board. I would also write out some genral rules and have him sign them. 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.[/quote] I agree that house rules are a good idea. But college internships don't usually pay very much, I should hope that family wouldn't want to take money away from someone's education just on principle. If you'd had house rules that included chore sharing, that probably would have taken care of the resentment over the increased workload.[/quote] OP here, yes I think the idea is that he would live with us precisely because if he wasn't living with us, any money he'd make from the internship would go towards rent.[/quote]
