Refusing a Rent Refund

Yep! That was mine and my husband’s biggest disagreement. He says he doesn’t want an 11 yr old cleaning things, but you have to start them young. You might have to correct things with them, but you have to have them practicing. He lost that argument. I am a working mom now that they’re older and they have to have chores for their own good, and bc they need to help keep the house they live in.

@melissachatwin9673 clearly you don't know me, so you assumed and were totally wrong. I do know about all those things you mentioned, and I also know that young woman can still be held accountable for her actions. She was living like a slob and and her mother knew she was like that before she left her house. If her anxiety was that bad, her mother should've had someone in place to clean her room for her, but she didn't because she knew her daughter was mentally and physically able to do it herself. I guess her anxiety made her eat her roommates food, too. 🤔 that girl doesn't get a pass for being a jerk because she has anxiety.

[@cosmos34]

I would be HORRIFIED if I were the daughter, and this was aired on national television. I would pay my mom whatever she was suing for, rather than having myself exposed as an utter slob. How embarrassing for her.

[@cassandra6710]

Seriously ‼️ I've always said there's a difference between being messy and just down right disgusting. I was raised by my grandmother who was so "old fashioned." Had to fold the towels right, laundry separated, dishes washed and then dried asap. Etc. I'm grateful to have been taught how to clean. I understand some people only know what they're taught but once you're an adult there has to be a line.

I've seen this judge and JJ both award the full months rent to the landlord even if the tenant was only there until the 2nd or 3rd, not prorate it - this slob was there until the 15th, and you KNOW there was some serious cleaning and airing out to be done in that nasty room when she left.

I completely agree that the daughter needs to clean up after herself and not be messy especially if she's going to be living with somebody else but I don't agree that the defendant should have got to keep any additional rent, the reason that I feel this way is because the defendant herself admitted that she told the plaintiff she needed to be out by a certain date due to her being messy so it's not like she wasn't expecting her to leave. If you give someone notice and tell them they need to leave by a certain date and they leave before that date as long as the rent is paid in full it doesn't matter if they leave before that date you were expecting them to leave and she should have started advertising right then and there.
