Ah, that's what you were getting at. I thought you were criticizing my living at home for free - the main reason I did so is because I had nowhere to go otherwise (no friends or family in the area), and no way to contribute to bills. I could do a little house and lawn work and that was it. Sure, I'd have paid some if I had a job, but if I had any money at all it was cash my mom gave me.

But yeah, I wonder about her threats of legal action. Supposedly the resources I consumed were "stolen" because of my not-paying, also the emotional damage caused by my behavior. Or so my mom claims.
