    I just bought a house with an attached 1-bedroom apartment (with its own address). My 11-year-old daughter has already laid claims to taking it when she graduates high school. So I don’t think she’s feeling stifled at all, lol.

    Better be prepared to pay rent if she’s not in school come the fall after high school, though (I’ll give her the summer to get her plans worked out).

      I could’ve had a savings account above 3 digits if I didn’t have to pay rent the day I turned 18

        Why the fuck did you have to pay rent the day you turned 18?!

        Yeah, that would be a detriment to your financial stability.

            Not to tell you how to live your life - and do take note that I don’t know you or your dad personally - but this sounds like a piece of generational trauma that you have the opportunity to get rid of. Best of luck!
