Eh? Sounds normal to me, then again I live in a country where teenagers quite often move out at 16 and stay out of their parents house, and if they do move back they pay for it, either by doing stuff around the house or with money...

If you are older than 18 and living at home you should pay for it somehow, because you are an adult. Also around here parents get money* until you are 18, but not after, so then you are expected to keep up your end of the living expenses somehow.

When I lived at my mothers for 6 months, I bought food and paid for all my expenses, also cleaned the flat whenever it was needed. My friend whom moves home for a year next summer, will pay rent** and pay for anything she might need herself, and of course clean the house and help out with stuff like that.

*not a lot, around 100€ or so every month
** Symbolic, to cover the extra expense in electricity, food and so on.

AYRT

Definitely a cultural difference thing.

Here, parents don't get money for having kids (not even a small amount), living expenses are so freaking expensive that no one in their right mind moves out unless they have a very good job so (and if they get lucky enough to find such a job, chances are they have to finish paying their study related debts first, so they'll be around 30s before they can move out) and a university student or a high school graduated won't get paid even the minimal wage, which isn't enough for living decently anyway.

Helping around in some way it's normal, though, many start doing chores and when they have a job help with some expenses, but no one thinks of it as "paying".

...and now studies are showing that moving out, living on your own, and being both emotionally and financially independent, makes you a more valuable (and valued) employee than the jobless-in-parents'-basement-with-a-lifetime-of-debt young adults that have a most expensive piece of paper, which is essentially worthless.

People had to commission studies to figure that out?

[(Anonymous)]

Jobless-in-parents'-basement is not a world wide thing, though.
Just because an study support something in one country doesn't mean it's also the same for the whole world.

[(Anonymous)]

They needed to do a study to see that?
