The Week contest: IOU mom
This week's question: A Toronto mother has handed her live-in 23-year-old son an itemized bill for $39,254.17 for "services issued free of charge," including a $1,000 fee for being "totally unappreciative of your mother's support." If an angry mom were to start a debt collection agency that recouped parents' money from slacker kids, what name could she give the business?
