My wife told me that we need to quickly clear out the rental I inherited when my dad passed away, so that my daughter can live there. I have great issue with this, because I think that giving today's young adults everything they need without them working for it is what's wrong with the country today.
I told her that it's a can of worms best left unopened, and that there's no way in hell that I'd GIVE her a place to live, rent free. I had to pay rent when I started out as an adult, and learned to work within my set budget...and that my daughter will need to do the same.
I'm willing to reach out and help financially, if needed, but I'm NOT giving her a house to live in for free.
I'm already putting out a chunk of coin each quarter to cover her college classes and books...
