When 13-year-old Aaron told his single mother he was “a free person” because he was making money from YouTube, she decided it was time for a lesson about the real world.
His mother, Heidi Johnson, was tired of her son wanting the privileges of adulthood without the responsibilities.
So she wrote him a “roommate contract.”
The note explained that if Aaron wanted to live like an independent adult, he would have to pay for his share of rent, utilities, internet, food, and other household expenses. He would also have to cook his own meals and help clean the house.
