Fed-Up Mom Sues to Cut Off 22-Year-Old Daughter’s Allowance!

An Argentine mom decided she had enough of funding her 22-year-old daughter’s “professional couch-sitting” lifestyle. After four years of university, the daughter had only completed a whopping 11% of her studies and showed zero interest in getting a job. So, naturally, her mom took the case to family court, asking permission to cut the financial umbilical cord.

Under Argentina’s Civil Code, parents are required to support their kids until they’re 25 if they can’t fend for themselves due to their studies or lack of a job. But the judge wasn’t buying it. Judge María Laura Dumple pointed out that, sure, parents can help if their kid’s genuinely swamped with school and internships, but that didn’t apply here. The daughter was apparently majoring in “Netflix and Chill,” not actual coursework.

In the end, the mom wanted to give her daughter the ultimate push towards adulting: cutting her allowance and letting her figure out life without mom’s wallet.
