Freeloading sister refuses to adjust to off-the-grid new home: ‘Worried for these children’

I've always wanted to live "off the grid." The way I live now is so "on the grid" it's nuts. There is something beautifully romantic about imagining a cottage in a far-off pasture, growing your own vegetables, making bread, and not having to go on the internet.
