Court, Welcome back from the weekend. How was your weekend? It
was pretty great. Went flew backto Portland. That's where my daughters graduating
from high school. Okay, andit was her second prom. If if
you're saying, Court, we talkedabout prom a couple of weeks ago.
She's got her boyfriend goes to adifferent high school. So a couple of
weekends ago was his prom. Yes, this was her prom. Yeah.
(00:47):
So it was her senior prom andit was great. She was named senior
prom queen. Yeah, that's huge. It was pretty great. My My
wife is beaming, like she triesher hardest to not live through our daughters.
Yeah, but she does. Iwould too if I were Randy and
she's yeah, so it was justa really great weekend for for queen.
(01:08):
They don't call it a King andQueen anymore. They call it promo royalty,
trying to be a little more inclusive. Okay, makes sense, Okay,
but you know amongst the family,she's like, ah, Queen Quinn,
So I think that's cute. Ithink about being a parent and putting
myself in your shoes when it comesto having a daughter that's going to two
(01:30):
promptses that mean two dresses to everything. No, she you know, Quinn
is very practical about these things.It was the same dress, whoa because
she wore to both. Um.She wasn't big on like I know a
lot of parents and it's weird thatthis has become the parents' responsibility. But
pain for like the limo and someof the dinners and stuff. She told
me like literally five minutes before shewas heading out, She's like, hey,
(01:53):
can I borrow your car? AndI'm like, my SUV that's like
dirty, And I'm like I shouldhave watched it today. She's like,
it's fine, we don't care.Oh man, So she didn't. She
didn't care about all those things thatmaybe the pressure comes from us Parents Day,
like, oh, you gotta havea limo, you gotta do this.
I did. End up, Ihad some gift certificates to a great
restaurant, so I funded that partof it too, So you go.
(02:15):
I don't think she spent very much, but maybe the cost of the dress
as all she had to spend forher two parts. Very smart, What
a good kid. Well, I'mglad she had fun. Glad you had

Six twenty eight on the Morning Breeze. Of course, that is Elton
(03:21):
john in your song. It's CarolynMcCardell Court Johnson The Bays number one for
relaxing favorites for your morning Court,Are you a what people would call a
mosquito magnet? There have been timeswhere I feel like they've been really attracted
to me, other times not somuch. I have family members that seem
to be more attractive to the mosquitoes. Yeah, so it's a It's definitely
(03:45):
a thing. I get attacked bymosquitoes every time I'm outside. Well,
I was reading over the weekend thatthey have been testing three different soaps,
apparently dial Dove and a soap calledSimple Truth, which I've never heard of,
but those made people in this studymore attractive to mosquito. So now
they're saying it could be the soapthat you used as compared to the unwashed,
(04:10):
Okay, should we say In thestudy they said that coconut and vanilla
bodywah are mosquito deterrent? So Icare anything with coconut or you use a
body wash that's vanilla, that's agood thing before you go outside. It
now like a natural repellent. Yeah, I guess. So, yeah,
that's a good way to look atit. It's interesting, Carolyn, because
I remember growing up and granted,you know, this were just the rumors
that would spread. I'd always heardthat it was like your blood type,
(04:34):
me too, and so but thenI realized I have a couple of brothers
that were always attacked, and thenI never was we all have this.
I have six brothers, okay,and we all have the same blood type.
And that makes no sense now,so maybe it comes down to my
brother James didn't wash himself with theright soap. James, maybe he didn't
wash himself at all. Yeah.Well, I also find that when you
(04:58):
eat certain foods, or I readthat when you eat certain foods, like
if you eat garlic, keeps themosquitos away, but then you smell like
garlic for three days. So it'sa tradeoff. You want the mosquito bites,
so you want to smell like garlicfor the next three days. Good
garlic pizza though sounds pretty good.I mean you're not wrong. Yeah,
eight seven seven nine eight one hninety eight one. We've got more on

guys had a prom in the housethis weekend. We had Quinn's senior prom
and she became the prom Queen Carolyn. Such a big deal for her and
(10:01):
for you guys as parents, andit becomes it prom all about the outfits,
right, Oh yeah, they're doingthis thing right now with like sparkly
stuff and hair like they sprinkle likea loose sparkle. It's kind of a
combination. They put like jewels intheir hair and then there's the spray,
like a hairspray that added, ohadds the sparkle. Wow, that's a
whole other level. Oh yeah,eight seven seven nine eight one nine eight
(10:24):
one. Sue in Santa Rosa.Good morning, Good morning, Carolyn,
morning cart How are you hot?Morning? The whole prom thing brought back
memories my stepdaughter. She wanted togo to one of the dances, and
so me, grandma and her motherall split this really amazing dress that we
bought for her. It was adark green velvet off the shoulder dress and
(10:48):
we spent quite a bit of moneyon this dress. And she puts those
combat boots on her feet. Theygo to the party, but you know
it's not it wasn't my dance.So I just shut my mouth. And
it's got to be so hard asa parent when you see them come down
with the combat boots with the dress. Yeah. Yeah, we've definitely been
(11:09):
having those those kind of moments withmy daughter Quinn, just some of these
fashion choices that she's making, becauseI would have to say, like I
think there was for one of theproblems, there were combat boots, a
big old pair of Doc Martins,and then I think this weekend it was
Chuck Taylor's. Yeah, the DocMartins, that's what she had. Oh
my gosh, she wore it.She was happy. So later we decided
(11:33):
we were going to get some mileageout of that dress. So we had
family pictures taken. And if shecome out of the bedroom with those Doc
Martins again, I went, no, no, no, girlfriend, get
a pair of my pantyhose and finda pair of my heels on the back
of my door, and you putthem on. You're going to be seen
in public with me this time.That is great. Yeah, have a
(11:54):
great day, you too, thinkSue. I should have asked Sue before
we let her go. Our pantyho'sstill a thing. I'm a woman.
I never wear them. Well,maybe like the Doc Martin's pantyhose have made
a come back that we don't knowabout. Maybe eight seven seven nine eight
one h nine eight one. Anyprom memories you want to share. We
hope you had a great weekend.Anything special happen over the weekend that you
(12:16):
want to share with us, giveus a call and coming up at eight
oh five this morning, it's yourchance to go to California's Great America NonStop
Thrills on roller coasters, Carolyn,so many good ones to choose from.
Be here at eight oh five yourchance to win on the Breeze Lionel Ritchie
on the Bays Number one for relaxingfavorites for Your Morning ninety eight point one
(12:39):
The Breeze, Morning Breeze, Carolynmccartell, Court Johnson, seven thirty nine.
There is a very big debate onlineright now, Court that has a
lot of people commenting and weighing inand sharing their thoughts. Should parents charge
their adult children rent when and ifthe kids moved back into the house.
(13:01):
Yeah, it's an interesting concept becauseyou know, I don't have kids that
are that age yet. I woulddefinitely love to charge my fifteen and eighteen
year old rent now, but Iknow they can't afford it, right,
So I would probably say, yeah, if the time came where one of
them had to move back in,I would probably charge them something, not
the full It's not like you're havingyour kids paid a mortgage for you,
(13:24):
but something something. How do youfeel about it? Since this is such
a big debate eight seven seven nine, eight one oh nine eight one,
you can always let us know onour Facebook page or Twitter, Instagram ninety
eight one The Breeze Kelly and SanJose. So you would charge your kid
something, not like a huge amount, but you know, just like for
basics, like you know, forwater, especially why do you have to
(13:46):
take these long of course I getit all about that. Yeah, yeah,
you know, just like to helpout, like with groceries and whatever.
Yeah, I would do that.You wouldn't charge him, I'm like
the full mortgage, but you'd makehim chipping, right. I hope that
never happens to him because he's married. In no, he's he's making way
(14:07):
more money than me, but anyone. Yeah, I think I'm going to
move in with him actually, andthen he's going to charge me. But
I think it's fair for parents justto charge something just for the fact that
because if you don't charge anything,they're gonna be like, oh, free
rents and I'll just live here forever. And they should have responsibilities. That's
(14:28):
responsibility like oh, yeah, youknow i'm living here, I should help
pay for the PGNI for the forthe air conditioning, for the water bill,
I mean, and help out thegroceries. So I think they should
have some responsibility because if you don'tgive them any responsibility for that, they're
going to take advantage of It's like, oh, I'm going to use my
money that i'm working. I'm gonnago buy myself this and this and this
(14:48):
and he's like, well that's notfair. So it's not being mean,
it's just having given them some responsibility. It was great to talk to you.
Thank you for listening and have awonderful day. Okay, love you
guys, and I'm listening all thetime, so yeah, thank you,
Kelly Bye. I have a feelingthat's going to be the case for a
lot of people court where it's likewe're going to charge something, just not
(15:09):
the full. It's like you weresaying with your daughters, if that happened,
right, And it's a it's atough argument because they're obviously moving back
in for a reason, so youdon't want to cause additional hardship. It's
like you want to help, butyou also need them to have some sort
of responsibility, right, Yeah,it's a tough line. Eight seven seven
nine eight one nine eight one.We'd love to hear your thoughts this morning,
(15:31):
and coming up at eight oh five, it's California's Great America. Yeah,
we'll have a four pack of ticketsto check out California's Great America,
including the South Bay Shores. Splasharound at South Bay Shores. Be here
at eight o five. Year chanceto win on the Breeze. Now we'll
look at our forecast. Janet Jacksonon the Bays Number one for relaxing favorites

mccartell, Court Johnson. It's eighto nine and you just won the tickets

nine dollars. Price goes up onMay thirtieth. By the way, another
chance to win coming up this morningten oh five here on the Breeze.
And we were talking earlier this morningabout this big debate online right now,
(16:36):
how's a lot of people weighing inshould parents charge their adult children rent when
the kids move back into the house? Eight seven seven nine eight one oh
nine eight one, Jamie and pleasantHill, what do you think they should
be adults? They need to learnresponsibility. If it weren't for the parents,
where else would they live. They'renot going to live for free.
(16:56):
So this is the way I thinknobody's going to come and live in my
house for free. It's me Theyneeded responsibilities, accountability. Life is not
about being free. Everyone's on thehard time somehow, someway somewhere in their
life. To expect somebody to payyour full mortgage or rent, that's ridiculous.
You have to be able to paywhat you can. Yeah, it's
(17:18):
like you still have to have somesort of responsibility in this whole thing.
You can't just skate on mom andDad's dime, absolutely, or grandma's dame
or grandma's dime. Good point.Thank you Jamie for calling, Thank you
for listening. Thank you guys somuch so. Carolyn, my wife Randy
texted, as we've been talking aboutthis, yeah, because she's been hearing
about this trend as well. Andanother trend is for parents who have their
(17:41):
adult kids move back in with themand take rent if they can afford it,
to actually just bank that rent andthen when the child moves back out,
hand it over to them as aparting gift. A downtam. That's
such a good idea. You're teachingthem responsibility, right, and then you're
rewarding them. Yeah, and theymove out and celebrating. Because I'm sure
there are some people out there.I'm sure there are some people out there
(18:03):
who are like, just let yourkid live at home for free, rent
free. But you got you gottateach them something. You're a parent.
This is a great way to teacha lesson. I love that. Well.

for you guys as parents, andit becomes it prom all about the outfits,
right, Oh yeah, they're doingthis thing right now with like sparkly
stuff and hair like they sprinkle likea loose sparkle. It's kind of a
combination. They put like jewels intheir hair and then there's the spray,
like a hairspray that added, ohadds the sparkle. Wow, that's a
whole other level. Oh yeah,eight seven seven nine eight one nine eight
(10:24):
one. Sue in Santa Rosa.Good morning, Good morning, Carolyn,
morning cart How are you hot?Morning? The whole prom thing brought back
memories my stepdaughter. She wanted togo to one of the dances, and
so me, grandma and her motherall split this really amazing dress that we
bought for her. It was adark green velvet off the shoulder dress and
(10:48):
we spent quite a bit of moneyon this dress. And she puts those
combat boots on her feet. Theygo to the party, but you know
it's not it wasn't my dance.So I just shut my mouth. And
it's got to be so hard asa parent when you see them come down
with the combat boots with the dress. Yeah. Yeah, we've definitely been
(11:09):
having those those kind of moments withmy daughter Quinn, just some of these
fashion choices that she's making, becauseI would have to say, like I
think there was for one of theproblems, there were combat boots, a
big old pair of Doc Martins,and then I think this weekend it was
Chuck Taylor's. Yeah, the DocMartins, that's what she had. Oh
my gosh, she wore it.She was happy. So later we decided
(11:33):
we were going to get some mileageout of that dress. So we had
family pictures taken. And if shecome out of the bedroom with those Doc
Martins again, I went, no, no, no, girlfriend, get
a pair of my pantyhose and finda pair of my heels on the back
of my door, and you putthem on. You're going to be seen
in public with me this time.That is great. Yeah, have a
(11:54):
great day, you too, thinkSue. I should have asked Sue before
we let her go. Our pantyho'sstill a thing. I'm a woman.
I never wear them. Well,maybe like the Doc Martin's pantyhose have made
a come back that we don't knowabout. Maybe eight seven seven nine eight

The Breeze, Morning Breeze, Carolynmccartell, Court Johnson, seven thirty nine.
There is a very big debate onlineright now, Court that has a
lot of people commenting and weighing inand sharing their thoughts. Should parents charge
their adult children rent when and ifthe kids moved back into the house.
(13:01):
Yeah, it's an interesting concept becauseyou know, I don't have kids that
are that age yet. I woulddefinitely love to charge my fifteen and eighteen
year old rent now, but Iknow they can't afford it, right,
So I would probably say, yeah, if the time came where one of
them had to move back in,I would probably charge them something, not
the full It's not like you're havingyour kids paid a mortgage for you,
(13:24):
but something something. How do youfeel about it? Since this is such
a big debate eight seven seven nine, eight one oh nine eight one,
you can always let us know onour Facebook page or Twitter, Instagram ninety
eight one The Breeze Kelly and SanJose. So you would charge your kid
something, not like a huge amount, but you know, just like for
basics, like you know, forwater, especially why do you have to
(13:46):
take these long of course I getit all about that. Yeah, yeah,
you know, just like to helpout, like with groceries and whatever.
Yeah, I would do that.You wouldn't charge him, I'm like
the full mortgage, but you'd makehim chipping, right. I hope that
never happens to him because he's married. In no, he's he's making way
(14:07):
more money than me, but anyone. Yeah, I think I'm going to
move in with him actually, andthen he's going to charge me. But
I think it's fair for parents justto charge something just for the fact that
because if you don't charge anything,they're gonna be like, oh, free
rents and I'll just live here forever. And they should have responsibilities. That's
(14:28):
responsibility like oh, yeah, youknow i'm living here, I should help
pay for the PGNI for the forthe air conditioning, for the water bill,
I mean, and help out thegroceries. So I think they should
have some responsibility because if you don'tgive them any responsibility for that, they're
going to take advantage of It's like, oh, I'm going to use my
money that i'm working. I'm gonnago buy myself this and this and this
(14:48):
and he's like, well that's notfair. So it's not being mean,
it's just having given them some responsibility. It was great to talk to you.
Thank you for listening and have awonderful day. Okay, love you
guys, and I'm listening all thetime, so yeah, thank you,
Kelly Bye. I have a feelingthat's going to be the case for a
lot of people court where it's likewe're going to charge something, just not
(15:09):
the full. It's like you weresaying with your daughters, if that happened,
right, And it's a it's atough argument because they're obviously moving back
in for a reason, so youdon't want to cause additional hardship. It's
like you want to help, butyou also need them to have some sort
of responsibility, right, Yeah,it's a tough line. Eight seven seven

And we were talking earlier this morningabout this big debate online right now,
(16:36):
how's a lot of people weighing inshould parents charge their adult children rent when
the kids move back into the house? Eight seven seven nine eight one oh
nine eight one, Jamie and pleasantHill, what do you think they should
be adults? They need to learnresponsibility. If it weren't for the parents,
where else would they live. They'renot going to live for free.
(16:56):
So this is the way I thinknobody's going to come and live in my
house for free. It's me Theyneeded responsibilities, accountability. Life is not
about being free. Everyone's on thehard time somehow, someway somewhere in their
life. To expect somebody to payyour full mortgage or rent, that's ridiculous.
You have to be able to paywhat you can. Yeah, it's
(17:18):
like you still have to have somesort of responsibility in this whole thing.
You can't just skate on mom andDad's dime, absolutely, or grandma's dame
or grandma's dime. Good point.Thank you Jamie for calling, Thank you
for listening. Thank you guys somuch so. Carolyn, my wife Randy
texted, as we've been talking aboutthis, yeah, because she's been hearing
about this trend as well. Andanother trend is for parents who have their
(17:41):
adult kids move back in with themand take rent if they can afford it,
to actually just bank that rent andthen when the child moves back out,
hand it over to them as aparting gift. A downtam. That's
such a good idea. You're teachingthem responsibility, right, and then you're
rewarding them. Yeah, and theymove out and celebrating. Because I'm sure
there are some people out there.I'm sure there are some people out there
(18:03):
who are like, just let yourkid live at home for free, rent
free. But you got you gottateach them something. You're a parent.
This is a great way to teacha lesson. I love that. Well.
