When I started going out with my (then) boyfriend, if I stayed at his house, I offered to help cook dinner for his mum, or help wash up after dinner. I made a point of taking some time to chat with his parents.
My son’s girlfriend comes to our house. They lock themselves in his bedroom and only come out to get food. Or go to the toilet. They are both 18.
This has always annoyed me and I have spoken to my son about it a number of times but to no avail.
Recently the girlfriend decided to tell one of my other children that she would have more respect for me and my husband if we “got off our asses and got jobs”.
I don’t need to explain myself to a bitchy little 18 year old but my husband is on disability pension due to injuring his back at work. Yes, we receive government payments to help us but I also receive income comes from various online jobs. I don’t plan to go back into the work force until my youngest child starts school. Like I did with each of my children.
Maybe she should get onto her boyfriend (my son) to get a job. Because sure as fuck, the “nagging” I do isn’t working.
I don’t know who she thinks she is, thinking that she can say that to my children. Did she think that my children would not tell me what she says about us?
She is not welcome in my home until she apologies for being so disrespectful.
