house keeping
14 Answers
I live with my partner and his son, his son gives us 25.00 a week. That pays for his 'keep', all his washing, pack up, anything he finds in the cupboards, snacks etc. Its up to him to keep his room clean and tidy. He works full time and earns good money, what do you think he should pay?

No cleaning up after him, especially when he gets baths, doesnt clean anything. Anyway, His dad let him keep the key and lo and behold he was in everyday once we had gone to work and made his packing up!!!!!! Then came home from work one night and he'd decided that he had moved back in!!!! I was livid, but my partner didnt say anything. I know he is torn between me and his son, but surely I have some say since I pay half of everything, mortage(even though my name isnt on it), gas -electric etc
I pay my mum about 1/5 of my take home wages. I know my firends pay a similar amount, although I have to privde my own lunch at work. I cant really afford to pay any more than this, but I think its a fair, so dont feel like i'm scrouging, but mum doesnt feel that she's taking too much money from me and so doesnt feel guilty. I do my own washing etc though! I think thats pretty fair. I also pay �10 a month more when the cost of living increase comes in, which although it isn't much, is a little bit extra each month!
