Mother Writes Terms Of Agreement Letter To Her 13-Year-Old Son: "You Will Need To Empty Trash"

• A mother took her time to pen a house contract with her teenage son after his change of behaviour in the house
• She charged her son food, electricity, internet and rent and also noted she would fine him whenever he failed to do his chores
• The loving mum, however, noted she was ready to negotiate with her son once he decided to be her child and not her roommate

A Facebook user has taken to social media to share a house contract a woman wrote to her young son.

The young boy's behaviour towards his mother in the house catapulted the terms of the agreement letter.

In the letter, the mother noted her son was a teenager and seemed to have landed a well-paying job.

"Sometimes you have even to write an agreement. We shall overcome," Irene Kilingo, the social media user who shared the hand-written agreement, captioned her post.

In the contract, the upset mother, who had had too much, introduced her son, Aaron, to readers, noting he was 13.

The angry mother claimed her son had forgotten his age and place in the house and did not want to be controlled.

"I guess you will need a lesson in independence. Also, as you told me that you are making money now, it will be easier to buy back all the items I bought for you in the past. If you would like your lamp and light bulbs or access to the internet, you will need to pay your share of costs," read part of the agreement.
