Single mom gives her cousin $2000 of baby supplies, then the entitled pregnant woman sells it online before demanding another gift at her baby shower: ‘She clearly just wanted to flip my stuff for cash’

Babies are expensive.  Like big-name bands headlining a festival, babies require a whole slew of gear, equipment, and workhorse roadies (their parents) to manage their lives.

72-year-old claims his 35 to 45-year-old kids don’t work as hard as he did, despite him receiving $1500 a month since he was 18 years old from a trust fund: ‘They want everything handed to them without effort.’

He can’t even acknowledge that he’s had a considerable boost in life that has nothing to do with him working hard.
