You’re 23 and not a child. Tell them straight, either you need money as salary, or you can’t do this anymore. This is why family businesses are tricky, because parents expect you to work for free and for you to show gratitude to them for setting up a business for you. Don’t fall into this trap, first use your own head. Ask yourself these questions:

Is this business viable? Will it be viable in the upcoming years and give me the lifestyle I want? (you have access to the books, do the calculations yourself)

Do I see myself running this business in the next 10 years and continuing my father’s legacy? (highly depends on your relationship with him)

Is there something else I’d rather do than this, that can generate enough money for me to survive alone and has good career growth? (and no, if your youtube channel does not generate at least break even revenue yet, this cannot be your answer)

You’re an adult, take decisions for yourself. If they hold you hostage, resort to extreme situations, and try to leave the household ASAP.
