I wonder if an apartment above our detached garage would count. We’ve got two bedrooms over there. We talked about moving older kids over there when they were teenagers. Of course, we’d have to have some sort of alarm system installed so they couldn’t sneak out. LOL!
Would it be considered an outbuilding if you “connected” it to the main house with a breezeway or something? I kind of like this idea!
I don't know; check your state's "child welfare" regs. I'm not sure we could get that past the homeowners' association.
