You Are Allowed to Charge Them Rent

Your adult child lives at home. They have an income. And somehow, you’re still paying for everything.

You Are Allowed to Charge Them Rent is a funny, practical, judgment-free guide to creating a fair financial arrangement with grown children who live at home. Using the simple RENT Framework, Darcy Evans helps parents decide what adult children can reasonably contribute, establish clear expectations, navigate savings and debt, handle changing circumstances, and stop managing money that belongs to another adult.

Because helping your grown child doesn’t have to mean financing them indefinitely—and talking about money doesn’t make you a bad parent.
