Today, I found my 15-year-old son sleeping on the couch. I asked why, and he said he'd rented his room out to someone on Craigslist to make extra money, so he was getting used to sleeping in the living room instead. FML

Why would a person accept an offer from a 15 year old anyway

Well too bad for him he can't legally do that. The contract wouldn't be binding haha. I'd say you deserve it because you weren't watching your kid nearly close enough. If he was able to go on craigslist, post an ad, sift through the responses, find someone, and get to the point where he is getting ready to sleep on the couch, then there were plenty of stops along the way you missed. Why would he have such unfettered access to the internet at that age? YDI

Like #54, I also had unrestricted and unsupervised access... I don't think it's that uncommon. The students in my 5th grade (ages 10-11) made fun of a girl because she was the only one out of 35 kids who didn't have unrestricted internet & computer access. By the time kids are 15 and in high school they will need to work on papers and projects (which include research, often done on the internet); it becomes impractical to supervise them the entire time they're at their computer.

The idea of having supervised/restricted internet access at 15 years old is ridiculous. Restricting a minors internet access is just a poor substitute for proper parenting. Kids are more than capable of growing up into happy, well-rounded people with free internet access.

He's amazing! But maybe should run this by you first. Encourage his ingenuity!
