Canning posted the following status on her alleged Facebook account:
Suburban baby boomer types are the spoiled lot, they make massive amount of money a year, they are used to flying to luxury destinations when they want, and buy things that they don't need, people should be inclined to see things my way.
I have been stunned by the financial greed of modern parents who are more concerned with retiring into some fantasy world rather than provide for their children's college and young adult years.
In today's economy there are no more meaningful jobs and without family help it's usually military or bust. I see parents like this every day, children were always an accessory to them and nothing more, once that accessory grew up and went out of fashion, much like a marriage that people allegedly commit to, the child becomes a throwaway, that's just how it is.
In the lawsuit, Canning claims she faced verbal abuse from her mother and "inappropriate affection" from her father. However, her parents adamantly deny the accusations and claim their daughter left because she didn't like the house rules.
"We love our child and miss her," Sean Canning, Rachel's father, told USA Today earlier this week. "This is terrible. It's killing me and my wife. We have a child we want home. We're not Draconian and now we're getting hauled into court. She's demanding that we pay her bills, but she doesn't want to live at home and she's saying, 'I don't want to live under your rules.'"
The family is due back in court on April 22. Canning is currently living with her best friend's family.
