So how much should you and do you charge them for the privilege . Stepson is an apprentice electrician and since he started work me and Mrs Pabs have charged him £60 p/m after new year he got a substantial rise, with this in mind his rent has now gone upto £200 p/m . We told him the good news tonight and he’s took it like there’s been a death in the family. For this he gets a nice comfy bed , hot meal served nightly, washing and ironing , internet ( his bedroom looks like showcase cinema ) , packed lunches and numerous other sundries plus he does jack shit round the house, are we being unreasonable to what we charge him

Tell him you'll drop it back to £60 but he does all the cleaning and he sleeps in the shed.

I paid my mum £200 per month and that was about 12 years ago. So I’d say it’s more than reasonable. He’s getting a bargain really. Kids just don’t see it that way.
