There were a number of not so ideal factors to their relationship.
There was a very fast/ whirlwind courtship. They got married with in months of starting to date.
There is a significant age difference between her and the husband. He is mid twenties and she has children (who don't live with her) in their mid twenties
They met at work.
but none to me would have indicated that this 'rent' issue would have shown up...

This is a game changer. A 40+ woman, marries a man-child within a few months of dating him and then moves into his apartment This was doomed from the start. So what was going on with her mentally that she made this happen. She is too old to not be smarter than this.
I'm starting to side with the parents now I'm not sure I want your old butt living up in my apartment rent free with my child
Right. Cuz MAYBR from HIS family's side she's old enough to be his mother and taking advantage of their child's college age circumstances (ability to live rent free etc) and who knows what else, particularly if his family has enough cash flow to own rental properties. I'd think the wife was trying to cash in on my son and my family's hard work .
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Maybe you love my son but why are your rushing a wedding? And where's your apartment/house?

If the son is silly enough to marry a 40 year old without anything put him out too
See this doesn't change anything for me (although I understand the parents more)
If he felt he was grown enough to marry her, then he needs to be grown enough to bear the responsibility for his family.
Which means, either they both pay me rent or they find somewhere else to live.
But no, as the parent, I wouldn't support this nonsense
@DarkJoy
Her adult kids live on their own and do what adults do... Pay their own rent/ mortgage, have children etc One of them is (by my definition ) a little ratchet and the other is a university grad who works in a bank. But neither is particularly special one way or the other. Their father her former husband died about 5/4 years ago
She works in administrative job and lived in her own rented place. She makes a lot. more money than her husband. Partly because she has been in her field much longer than he has. She isn't struggling at all. She also owns a small business.
He worked in a lower level position at the same organisation she works for. Supposedly he was the person who suggested living in the apartment.
the entire thing says a lot about both persons to be honest.. I think she got too excited
