How does it sound when you hear that a five-year-old baby who should, ordinarily, spend her allowances on ice cream, candies, etc., is made to use her money to rather pay rent? Well, that is what a fashionable but no-nonsense mum does — she makes her underage daughter pay rent from what we might even call a “paltry” allowance! Essence Evans set the cyberspace agog with a simple social media post in which she claims that she makes her baby girl —a five-year-old — to pay rent. Essence, who is a singer and Yoga fan, explains that every week, the baby girl gets $7 in allowance. The post has since received 318,877 shares and 228,000 reactions; while media houses virtually all over the world have turned her simple post into a big story.
