[quote=Anonymous]Charge her a (low) rent. Shes, what, 22 years old and post graduate? Totally age appropriate to start pushing it to be on her own. My parents helped me too post college (and as an undergrad they paid for college...so long as it was in-state) , but in order to not let me become too complacent and too comfy living with mommy & daddy they charged me $100/mo. Not enough to break me or make it too hard, but enough to make me appreciate my paycheck and the value of a dollar. It made me work hard. And it made me grateful. And it brought in reality and being an adult and that this is life. I realized, too, that the benefits of grad school didnt pay off as much as I envisioned given the cost of tuition and the time/experience of a real job that I would lose out on bc I had class(es). Just a thought [/quote]
