Not a bad idea and I had already actually considered that. They are good kids trying their hardest to do it all on their own and I know they felt bad about even having to ask to move in with us. Charging them rent might make them feel better about themselves while they live here and, unbeknownst to them, be setting aside money to help them into their next place.
