Inflation forces parents to increase rental prices for adult children - Telegraph
According to the survey by MyVoucherCodes.co.uk, more than 60pc of parents charge their adult children rent, with more a third of those only just starting to ask for payment because they needed further support following the recession and rising inflation.
Mark Pearson, chairman of MyVoucherCodes.co.uk, said: "Some children live with their parents well into their 20s, or even 30s. It's fair that these parents should take money for the home they provide once their youngsters reach 18 or get a job. Charging rent or taking money for food prepares them for what they will face later on in life, when they have to run their own home."
