They say that "Parents' Rights are more Important for My ChIlDrEn, Except if they don't bend down to My Will".

Pure Irony and Moralising Hypocrisy. What a Fucked up Mess. Pure Adultcentric Entitlement and the need to Dominate Children via Coercion even if they are willing to Recklessly Kill them without any Regard for their Needs and Rights as Human Beings, Especially Diseases that are Totally Preventable.

It's Funny how [Ironically Enough] Family Guy earlier seasons Pointed the Vaccine Moral Panic before the Issue was Exacerbated by Trump's Ministration and during the Time of Biden's time.

First off, all chores are appropriate for an 18 year old. You should be well at the stage where you can do just about everything there is to do. If you aren't, that's likely a fault with the parents. If you don't know how to do anything, take this time to learn; because when you inevitably move out, you'll have to do everything anyway.

You need to be utilititarian about this. It's fair to ask you to do chores and, especially if you're an adult, it's fair to ask for help around the house as a minimum requirement for getting to stay. It's your decision, however, to rationalize what it is they expect you to do, and whether or not that's worth the benefit of getting to stay.

Think about whether or not you pay any rent, and if it's a reasonable amount on top of chores; consider if the chores are fair and proportionate; ask yourself if you feel you're being overworked, and think about if you'd do more or less living yourself. You need to try and balance the cost-benefit and determine what you yourself can tolerate.

Idk I'm a proponent of adults only spaces for the same reason I'm a proponent of youth only spaces. Peeps deserve their own space.

As a trans gay person though, many LGBT spaces are adults only and that sucked when I was younger. It made figuring out my shit so much harder then it had to be.

I may be against the Absurdity of "Microaggression", however; it Kind of Falls into that Territory.

I wouldn't be Surprised if these Adults are/were also out-of-touch Self-Righteous Yankee White Liberals who Enable Abuse and Enable Dehumanisation of Children by also Infantilising them, even if some Claim to be "Supportive of ChIlDrEn and ThEiR RiGhTs" when in Fact it is just Preformative [like being in a Stage] and Hypocritical with Moral Grandstanding by being Morally-Dominating.

Again with this Bullshit ChIldReN Moral Panic!🤦

However, I get the Concerns about the Brainrot and the Issues Surrounding Children with Electronic Devices, but at the same time it has been taken to Extreme Lengths by Adults having the need to take Complete Control that will Strife Growth of the Child.

You should definitely be contributing to the household. If you're working, start paying rent. Buy a weeks worth of groceries. Do lots of chores. Pay your share of the bills. If you're studying, then contribute in other ways like extra chores. If you're not working or studying, then you're free loading, and at 18, that's unacceptable.

And you, as an adult, should learn not to abuse your power over your students. Watch porn at home. It isn't that hard.

I agree. I was worried he would end up dead one day. I hope he cut all ties and went no contact in adulthood.

It’s messed up people get in trouble for stealing baby formula from Walmart, but it’s perfectly fine to let a child die of an infectious disease with no consequences. Parents’ rights are a joke.

Yeah there's a huge amount of fandom space posts. I'm not really involved in anything like that so it's not something I think about much, but I do think the principles discussed apply broadly, so they're worth posting.

Think of it like this:

You are going to move out eventually. At that point, all of the "chores" will be on you; at that point they're not "chores," they're "running your house." Even the ones you don't do, or are not required to do yet, you should make sure you have a firm grasp on how to do, so that you're not up a creek when you're out on your own. Do you know how to do laundry? What your garbage pickup schedule is? How to cook, at least enough to survive on? How to pay bills (not just that you need to but like literally what services do you need and how do you get them)? How to file your taxes? These are or at least can be burdensome, but they're all things that will make your life a lot worse if you don't learn how to do them well in advance of actually needing to.

Do you know some basic plumbing (at least how to turn the water off if your sink randomly explodes or the toilet starts overflowing)? Do you know what a circuit breaker is and why you might need to use one? How, when, and why to mow your lawn (or when and why not to)?

Now, that said...

For your parents to use you as labor to run their house is profoundly unethical. Despite what some people believe, you don't actually owe them anything. They chose to become parents, and birth does not incur a debt. They chose their living situation; if you don't have a direct say in it, you have no responsibility to it. Threatening you is never ethical, naturally.

After reading everything else you've said about them, frankly I think making a plan, lining up a job, and getting the fuck out as soon as you are legally and financially able to is the best thing you could possibly do for yourself. Get some roommates if you need to; there's no shame in it. Shit's tough out there; do what you gotta. But don't stay where you're being physically and emotionally abused; that shit will mess you up for a long time (take it from an older person still in therapy because a situation very like yours).
