Say, “Fine, legally your an adult, but on the other hand, legally I can charge you rent. If you want to be treated like an adult, then you owe us some money.”

My parents said that to me all the time and boy did it leave me at a loss for words. It’s true that you have to treat an angry kid with love, but chutzpah is another story.
