[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 257241, member: 84"] I don't require alot out of my grown at home kids, mostly consideration. (although they'd tell you differently) I require rent from them unless they are a full time student making passing grades. If Travis really does go back to college this fall, he is ticked he'll be required to pay rent anyway. Not my fault he put off college until he was 25. If a grown child goes crazy running up a certain bill, they may find themselves helping to also pay that bill. This has happened to Mr. Take 2 Hr Showers twice now. He's discovered filling the bathtub is cheaper. lol If a grown child snarfs up all the food other than meals.......they get the joy of replacing such food. (this is used with Travis most often) I don't care when they crawl out of bed.......but don't expect the house to revolve around your schedule. If you want to stay up all night, more power to you. But WE won't be quiet during the day, and YOU'D better be quite at night. Miss a meal, too bad so sad you know when they're served. I have a midnight cerfew. My house My rules. I'm not going to be up worrying when my grown kids are going to stumble home. Don't like it, move out. Pick up after yourself. (we're still working on this one. lol) And that's pretty much it. It works for us. Hugs [/QUOTE]
