    It’s her fault these people exist in the first place. The entitlement of parents that kick out their children when they aren’t convenient anymore is astonishing.

    Edit: Downvoted by entitled parents who never thought about what it means to yank an existence out of the void and put it in the meat cage and just had kids cause “thats what you do” yiiiikes

      You don’t know the circumstances under which she had kids. I understand your point that they didn’t ask to be born, but if that’s the case are they just going to be bitter freeloaders to punish her?

        To punish her? They didn’t ask to exist, now they do. Why should they have any responsibility?

          Because they are grown men with the capacity to be self sufficient?

          It’s not the parents who are entitled, here.

          I legit went from “hmm I disagree, but understand where he’s coming from” to “this guy is deluded and crazy”.

          Property prices are super high everywhere right now and it’s easy to understand how some people want to live rent free whilst earning so they can enjoy extravagant lifestyles.

          But at 40, they’re pushing it too far, to force their 70+ y.o. mother to carry them while they offer nothing in return.

          IMO letting them chill for 40 years rent free is more than enough payment for ‘being born’. If they weren’t earning or were disabled etc and needed care etc then it would’ve been fine, but they’re legit deadbeat freeloaders who won’t bat an eyelid if their mom died.

          If they haven’t got a place to live, tough. They’ll learn the hard way. 40 years is plenty of time to have figured it out.

          You realize the same logic applies for her right? She didn’t ask to be here… why does she have to take care of ungrateful sons?

          She’s 75, she’ll likely be passing away soon. If you’ve absolved these two middle aged men from responsibility, who do you expect will provide for them after her passing? Are you opening YOUR wallet to do so?

      These are grown adults in their 40s. You really think the mom should just forever be their maid? Even at the age of 75?

      At some point they just have to take responsibility for themselves. Even if they have to, or want to live at home, they should absolutely be contributing if they are able bodied.

      when they aren’t convenient anymore

      Uh… you realize that they weren’t convenient… well… EVER.
