[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm with 12:14.  If the child purchased it him/herself, or if it was a gift, or if it is underwear, then it is his or hers.  But if it was purchased with parental money then the child should be gracious enough to share.  That doesn't mean that the garment can be mistreated or poorly used.  And it does mean that the garment needs to be cleaned before it is returned in the condition in which it was received.  Also, you can't take the shirt of the other person's back nor the shoes off of her feet.

Prom dress bought with Mom's credit card?  Shared.  Hello Kitty t-shirt received as a birthday gift from Aunt Margo?  Not shared.  Jack Rogers sandals?  Shared.  Fluffy bunny slippers that she got for Christmas?  Not shared.[/quote]
That is crazy.
If I buy dd1 something it is for her.
And I darn sure am not making them share shoes.[/quote]

Yes. Totally crazy.  Everyone s entitled to their own space and things.  I just can't see the 16 year old taking good care of things like a 20 year old would, and I can't imagine the resulting necessity for mom to be involved.

Shared things are fine, too. But that has to be made clear up front.

As for the 29 year old in question.... time to find a way to live where you are not infantilized.[/quote]
