The parents made their daughter sign a lease in the US. It will apply under certain terms.
A family from Texas, United States, has generated controversy. This due to a decision that the parents made about their 19-year-old daughter: start charging rent.
According Fox News It is about the marriage between Cody Archie y Erika, who uploaded a video to the platform where they make their daughter sign, Kylee Deason, a kind of contract where they agree to pay a monthly amount to continue living in the house and take care of their food.
The situation occurs in the midst of a popular trend these days in that country, which is called ‘parents charging rent’ (parents who collect rent).
The aforementioned medium spoke with the parents, who indicated that the measure is aimed at making their daughter mature and understand adult life as soon as possible.
“The purpose behind this was to make her realize that not everything is free, and to start preparing her for adulthood. As you enter the workforce, you will have to be responsible for your own rent and food.” Cody pointed out.

Parents charge their daughter rent
In this sense, both indicated that it is a minimum amount of 200 dollars per month, which will be charged only if the young woman has a formal job.
“After a joint discussion, we came to the conclusion that since Kylee has graduated, I informed her that as of June 1st the rent would be due if she decided to continue living here,” the man said.
For her part, Kylee’s mother indicated that: “I think it was a little harsh, maybe we could have been a little more flexible. However, I think it is the right thing to do.”
The determination raised criticism of the couple. Many dismissed this as an ‘imposed punishment’.
“Don’t know. My parents did this to me and it almost ruined our relationship. It made me feel like they care more about money than me.”“My parents did this to me, it feels more like a punishment than anything” were some comments.
According to a study published by Pew Research in 2022, in recent years the number of young adults (between 18 and 25 years old) living with their parents in the United States has been increasing.
Without going any further, it is estimated that 50% of people between the ages of 18 and 29 lived with at least one of their parents. Situation that is explained by the crisis in that country and inflation.
