This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Where are you legally required to provide for a 19 year old?
In Neckbeard's Law of Being a Leech section 2 line 45
I'm convinced you're the neck beard, with how much edge you're trying to cut me with.
Charging rent to your kid is the best way to guarantee they live with you longer. If you take their money, they have no money to move out.
Dumbass.
Well, no. If a kid is paying money either way, they might decide they want privacy. My parents started charging my sister rent, the next month, she moved out. At some point, enabling your kids is hurting them more than helping them
Now how many kids move out with no money because their parents are overbearing control freaks who think because they had sex one time 20 years ago means they have a slave.
Edit: I also feel I should add that living with your parents as an adult was very common until the last 40-50 years. The only reason it became the "norm" was, because of how good the economy was, young adults could actually afford to leave their parents at that age.
