<prompt> Human: It has been 6 months since the six of us moved into a large apartment. We are all college students and dont have a lot of money to begin with. The parents in question are demanding 70 from each of us. I argued that this wasnt fair as all of us brought things to contribute, plus all of the things that they purchased for us were not asked for. He responded by saying that he would pay for anything that we contributed. Now everybody is in a frenzy trying to assess exactly how much everything was worth that they brought which will no doubt result in a ton of fighting between us.If anything these thoughts should have been brought up when we moved in, not six months after the fact. Im not sure what to do, and would appreciate the help.Assistant: You guys should not put yourselves through this because of someones asshole parents. Go back to your original way of thinking and if they dont like it tell him to move the fuck out.Human: Maybe I should have been more clear. My room mates are awesome and I wouldnt want any of them to move out. When I brought up my arguments he said he wouldnt argue with me. I think it was more of a this is a message my parents are sending you, respond to it how you will. I dont think there will be ill will with him.  <response>: thats pretty unfair of the parents. if the parents press the issue, tell them that it was never agreed upon in writing. dont even consider giving them money if they cant produce receipts or an agreement with your signature stating how you agreed to pay for said items.
