It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Balkan perspective here. You see, when you're 18, you can work. If you mean to be an adult and live with your parents, you should contribute. If you're a lazy fuck, your parents should kick you out, they're not responsible for you anymore. Me and my brother didn't pay rent, but as soon we hit adulthood and started to work, we started to financially help our mom to support her and we do it even now when we don't live with her anymore. I don't see anything wrong with this. In the end, this is just one of the ways you learn how to adult.
As always, this is going to heavily depend on the people and the circumstances. I don't think there's room for blanket assertions on what should be done.
I don't think there's anything wrong with asking to contribute to the household if they're able, I do think there's something wrong with saying "You have hit age you must pay me rent".
here's the thing, the parent is complaining about paying rent, not that they're child is sitting around doing nothing, that part you added yourself
Oh, I've read just a title and left my wisdom in comments because I wanted to.
