My Daughter and I Were Repeatedly Left Hungry Because of My Son and DIL – Was I Right to Give Them a Reality Check?

My son and his wife moved in with my daughter and me to save money. Initially, everything went smoothly, but soon, our food situation became problematic. Despite my efforts to cook enough for everyone, my daughter Ruby and I often found ourselves without any food left.

One night, I made spaghetti, only to find the pot empty when I was ready to eat. Ruby asked, “Mom, did you save me any dinner?” Sadly, I had to tell her it was all gone. This wasn’t a one-time event; it happened frequently.

Fed up, I decided to introduce new rules: I would plate everyone’s meals and evenly divide leftovers. “Mom, isn’t that a bit excessive?” Brian asked. I replied, “It’s about fairness and respect for everyone’s needs.”

The new system caused tension, leading to a heated argument. “We’re trying to save money, Mom. We can’t buy extra food,” Brian argued. I stood firm, saying, “If you can’t respect the rules, maybe it’s best to find another place.”

This decision, while tough, was necessary for maintaining fairness and respect in our home. “Mom, you did the right thing,” Ruby reassured me. The experience taught us valuable lessons about communication, respect, and compromise.
