不滿30歲兒子'啃老' 美國老夫婦無奈將其告上法庭

A couple from New York State took drastic measures to get their 30-year-old son to move out on his own by suing him.

美國紐約州一對夫婦爲了讓30歲的兒子離家獨立，竟然出狠招將其上告法庭。

Mark and Christina have tried for months to get their adult son, Michael, to leave their home, where he has lived rent-free for eight years after he moved back when he lost his job.

馬克和克里斯蒂娜嘗試了數月，讓已成年的兒子邁克爾從家搬離。自八年前失業搬回家住後，邁克爾就一直住在父母家中，從不交房租。

Over the course of two months from February to March, the couple gave Michael five written letters requesting him to leave, all of which he ignored.

在今年2月至3月兩個月的時間裏，這對夫婦給邁克爾寫了五封信要求他搬離，但他都熟視無睹。

To further entice Michael, the couple offered him $1,100 to help him live on his own and gave him advice on how to land a job.

爲了進一步誘使邁克爾搬離，這對夫婦還給了他1100美元助其獨立生活，並且就如何找工作給了他一些建議。

Finally, they filed their case with the Onondaga County Supreme Court, in Syracuse on May 7, after months of unsuccessfully urging their son to leave.

但數月敦促兒子離家無果，最終，這對夫婦於5月7日向錫拉丘茲的奧內達加縣最高法院提起訴訟。

According to WABC News, Michael has called his parents' lawsuit "retaliatory" and has asked the court to toss out the request.

據WABC新聞報道，邁克爾稱其父母的訴訟是“報復性的”，並且已經要求法院駁回這一請求。
