18 year old DS lives with us but is at uni full time. He's got a good student loan with no living costs. He currently has £2k sat his bank and has just had another £1k put in today which he's bragging about. He contributes nothing to the household, no finance, no housework, won't even put the dishwasher on without moaning.
He's basically living the life of Riley.
Meanwhile DH and I (not his dad) are working full time and coming home to housework and cooking. DS seems to be at uni for a max of 6 hours a week and spends the rest of his time making a mess and playing computer games whilst buying himself expensive steak for a lunch time, clothes and gadgets.
AIBU to ask for a token contribution of say, £50 a month when a) we're not short of money but not exactly rolling in it either and b) his money is actually a loan?
He also works part time (8 hours a week).
