Should he still be expected to pay rent. (46)
If she doesn't want to accept rent from him, it would be noble of him to pick up the tab for the whole car payment, and perhaps put some money aside each month to treat his mother to a little vacation somewhere as a surprise. Just a thought.

Ccincy: If a man lives at home with his mother who's not able to care for herself anymore should he be asked to pay rent?
He does have his own income and is paying for half of his mothers car payments each month and all of the insurance coverage for said vehicle since she's not able to drive anymore cause of her mediacl condition.
He did offer to pay his mother rent and pay towards the untilities but she he didn't need to.She told him it would cost her a lot more to pay someone else to live-in with her 24 hrs a day. Besides she would rather have him living at home then a complete stranger.

One simple answer...YES...she took care of him growing up and out of sheer respect he should do for her without being asked

Like his mother he too lives on a limited income and if he were to pay the whole car payment which is over 5 hundred a month plus insurance it would exceed his income.
AS for taking her on vacation as a surprise he tried that but she won't leave the house.She's scared to death someone may break in the home.He does take her out as surprises close to home.

Understand. Hmmm. I don't have a good answer for that then!

For my culture, paying rent (or making this thing sound so formal and official) when living in mom's house or paying rent when living in children's house would be unacceptable. This would be dealt differently if children (adult ones, of course) or parents don't have enough money.
If parents have more money and children are in a tough financial position, parents cover for children's expenses and the other way round, if parents are in a less favorable financial position.
If there are no financial worries, parents would never take money from children.

The thing is she never had to ask him to help her.He approached her.She wouldn't accept the rent offer. He loves his mother very much.He would give up his own life if he had to.

seems to me they'd both be better off selling her car, unless they are close to having it paid off.

He couldn't sell her car unless he had power of attorney and she agreed to it. But for now his mother wants to keep her car as a backup vehicle.With the bad shape of the economy here in Ohio it would be hard to sell it or get someone to take over payments.

Well, maybe they could sell the house and live in the car then. I hope the auto loan term is not more than two years and its a Mercedes. That's a pretty pricey car payment in my book. How did she qualify for a loan like that if she is bad off?
It's leaf time here in Ohio. Got to get outside and clean up some of mine.

The bigger question should be " what buisness is it of anyone else ".
If the two like the arangement then so be it . I'm shure all those reading this would not like others to dictate there morals and standards on them . So why do it to this one ?

I think this is the key point. If he is her sole carer and she cannot look after herself with safety and dignity, then no, he should not pay rent. Here, he would probably be awarded a carer's allowance.
But what I do have a bit of trouble understanding is how he can have his own income and a career whilst caring for someone who is helpless.

It really depends. Is this a case where she will eventually recover? If this is a temporary situation perhaps its a chance for him to save towards his own house in the future once shes recovered. Either way I wish them both luck dealing with a difficult situation

My mother and I took care of dad before he went, and then I took care of mom for three years before we went. Now I'm a caregiver to someone else 24/7. Some of us are just put on this earth to be caregivers. I think it's commmendable that this gentleman is taking care of his mother in that way.

There is no reason he should not be working even if it's just part time or weekends. To take yourself completely out of the job market for god only knows how long is crazy. What is he going to do when his mother dies? Employers don't look kindly upon long times of unemployment.

He runs his own small business from his mom's home.
