I just can't imagine they'd force someone paying their own way to live with their parents

It's not all on the up and up.

Do you think it is right for a mother or father to take keep if they won't allow you freedom?

If I were to hazard a guess, his parents are being absolute shitlords and demanding any monies earned by the kid.

Keep as in a cut of what I earn

I personally would leave that situation

This isn't a matter of right and wrong, dude. This is a matter of present circumstance.

You are in a shit spot and need to make a plan to gtfo.

If you can't leave you have to deal with it

That is my point

Parents make the rules

You might be able to petition for emancipation.

But you're at risk of jumping out of the fryer and into the fire.

Are you paying them a rent that would get you your own place?

Potentially

Price some places out. Investigate emancipation.

Can't do anything with potentially

I'll tell you this, in the US, you can't reliable sign a contract with a minor, so no one will go into business with a kid.

This sounds Dodgy but my mate has offered his loft bedroom if I want to leave my mother and fathers house

Why is that dodgy

IDK

Is your mate a drug dealer or other type of hooligan?

It doesn't sound innately dodgy to me

It isn't really but it's trying to get everything sorted around that

I'm serious about that. I've offered a spot to friends in my home on numerous occasions.

As have I

Sounds like it could just be a mate doing a solid for you

So, if this friend of yours is a real friend, get emancipated and take him up on his offer.

And compensate him for it. Everything has a price. As long as you can pay, pay up and carry your own weight.

You should always feel a weight on your honor if you have to accept charity.

Yh, he is like a brother to me but his mum is divorced and is "weird"

Better weird than feminist.

Unless we're talking bad taxidermy.

Then, maybe feminist is better.

It's either better then your current situation or it's not

You don't want to be evicted from your meat suit because the ghosts told her to.

He's not red pill but I've been dropping red pills into conversations and he agrees with MOST of them

He'll only accept it if he's ready to accept it

Can't force a redpill down someone's throat

Yh, I'm trying to get to the point I know I CAN stay at his without him potentially getting a girlfriend who wants to move in with him and me to move out

Cause I know if he does get a GF she will manipulate him through sex
