He Told His Stepfather He Could Eat Anything He Wanted Since He Pays For The Groceries, But Then His Mom Accused Him Of Financial Abuse

And constantly having to support the household has been really getting on his nerves. However, when they were having a family dinner this week, one more incident totally pushed him over the edge.

While eating, he recalled how he had bought a watermelon for himself and wanted to have some. But then, he discovered that nearly the entire watermelon was gone.

Still, he tried to stay positive and focus on how he could just enjoy the last part of the fruit.

And that’s when his stepsister stepped in and said she wanted some watermelon, too. At first, he told her that she could just have an apple since there was barely any left.

However, his stepfather apparently overheard and decided to butt in, too.

“My mom’s husband said kids go first, but I said that the kids have been eating watermelon for the past few days and that it was my turn,” he said.

“Then, my stepfather looked me dead in the eye and said, ‘Put it back, son. You can eat something else.'”

That comment utterly infuriated him. So, he decided to finally speak his mind and tell his stepfather that since he paid for all the groceries, he would be eating whatever he wanted.

The air in the room immediately turned a bit tense, but nobody in his family said anything after that. Then, he just took the watermelon to his room.

Later that night, though, his mom went to talk to him about the entire ordeal. First, she did apologize for how her husband had treated him.

But then, his mom kind of berated him for being rude and bringing up the grocery bills at all.
