This woman and her husband have 4 children, and 3 of them are adults who are living on their own. They only have one child left living with them, so they are close to being “empty nesters.”

Now, her oldest child has had a difficult journey getting pregnant over the course of the last 4 years. When her oldest finally had a pregnancy that seemed to be certain, their entire family was thrilled.

Since they still all wanted to be careful, they chose to forgo a baby shower. When the baby arrived, they really limited interactions with the baby, knowing they would throw an enormous 1st birthday for the baby to fully celebrate.

So, for the last year, everyone in their family has been gearing up for the incredible birthday bash.

“A couple of months back, a family in our community was struggling, they needed a place to stay for a while, and since we’re basically empty nesters, we decided to let them stay with us, only thing they are in charge of is their own food,” she explained.

“Our grandchild’s first birthday party was 2 weeks ago we hosted it at our house since we have a lot of space and a big backyard.”

“They were welcome to join in but chose to stay in the rooms most of the days. Sometime during the party, my youngest overheard them complain, saying that we were doing too much for a first birthday, saying it’s just a first birthday, it’s not a big deal, and basically saying the baby “wasn’t special enough” for us to be doing all that.”

Well, last weekend, this family celebrated a birthday for one of their own kids. She and her husband generously purchased a birthday present for the child.

The family actually asked them if they were planning on throwing the kid a party, and the mom even said she expected a party.

She never promised to throw a party for this kid, so she informed the mom that she would not be doing that.

“I apologized, saying no, we didn’t have a party planned, but I’d be happy to pay for them to go out to eat or go to an arcade or something,” she said.

“She said no and that they had other plans. We thought that was the end of it, but for the next couple of days, we kept on hearing people talk, they were basically telling a mutual connection we had that we were mistreating them and making them feel less than. They tried turning people we knew against us.”

Word did get back to her about all this, so she confronted the mom about what she had been saying behind her back. The mom initially got really defensive, but she showed her the proof, and the mom did own up to what she did as she burst into tears.

She then told the mom that living together was not working well, so she needed to find somewhere else to live within the next 2 or 3 months.

“The next day, my family went out, and when we came back, their rooms were completely empty; they also took things from the house that weren’t theirs,” she continued.

“Apparently, they went to a motel and started telling those same people that we kicked them out because they made a comment we didn’t like. We’ve had several people contact us and say how disappointed they were and others just wanting to hear our side of the story.”

She’s left wondering if it was rude of her to kick this family out after everything they said. What do you think?
