Brother-in-law insists that husband moves out of his wife’s family home that he owns so her aging mother can live there: ‘They don’t care if my wife stays or moves with me, they just want ME gone’
It’s wild how entitled some family members can be to your home and your space. I know many people advocate for intergenerational families living together, but that is not always enjoyable for the person named on the mortgage. If you’re the stable person in the family and everyone around you is mooching off your kindness, …

Brother-in-law camps out in bathroom for hours while staying at his sister-in-law’s 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom house: ‘I told him I really had to go. It took him an hour to get out.’
When you live in a house with four people to one bathroom, you have to be hyper-aware of not hogging the space during incredibly inopportune times. You can’t blow-dry your hair for twenty minutes during high-traffic times, like weekday mornings. Other people’s showers and trips to the toilet are more important than standing in front …

Brother-in-law protests after unemployed man expects sister to drive him to potential jobs with a 40 minute commute: ‘My wife and I share one car and there isn’t any public transportation’
For all that those who have jobs may complain about the trials and tribulations that come from work, there is no denying that being unemployed is the worst. Worrying about some dumb deadline is preferable to worrying about how to pay bills because you don’t have a steady income. On top of that, the act …

Entitled brother-in-law expects to stay expense-free in husband and wife’s Honolulu home indefinitely, wife demands he pay $150/week moving forward: ‘That’s way less than what it’s costing us’
In-laws tend to think they’re untouchable when it comes to their biological family member’s partner. They seem to think they can treat you however they see fit, use you for all you have, then spit you out when they’re done with you. There are some spouses who can’t take the heat, sure—but most spouses refuse …

35-year-old gets widowed before brother’s wedding, brother-in-law refuses to reschedule after her mom asks them to postpone: ‘ Our wedding was planned for the 10 year anniversary of when we met’
The problem with planning something as big and cumbersome as a wedding is that it often doesn’t take much in terms of unforeseen circumstances for the whole thing to be derailed. Venues or caterers can cancel, one of the wedding party can start drama, or family members can act up unexpectedly—and that is just the …

If you give a mouse a cookie he’s going to want a glass of milk to go with it. But if you give a cookie to your toxic brother-in-law every time he’s being ill-mannered, impolite, or generally audacious—you’re going to end up with a bad-tempered brother-in-law who isn’t happy about being finally called out on …

20-year-old college student faces family backlash after she refuses to keep babysitting 18-month-old nephews: ‘My sister and brother-in-law are currently unemployed’
Most parents find that it takes a village to raise a child, not least in the hectic, work-obsessed age that we live in. It can sometimes seem nearly impossible to do the job of child-rearing alone, and that is where the help of others comes in. For many, the first people they turn to when …

Neglectful babysitters refuse to change babies diaper, goes on rampage when their sister-in-law reports it to the mother of the baby: ‘[She] has trashed me to every family member she can think of’
The scariest thing about babies is that they can’t talk. Some might say the most frightening thing about them is the sensitivity of their soft spots or SIDS, but I would take a soft-headed baby who could speak like Stewie Griffin over a football-helmet-headed baby who only cries any day. I’m not saying that every …
