To Charge or Not to Charge: A Parental Dilemma
Our concerned parent wants their 17-year-old son, who’s making bank with his live streaming career, to start paying rent. They think it’s a fair deal, considering the space and resources he’s using for his streaming studio. ️ But the wife disagrees, arguing that they should provide a roof without asking for rent.
