It’s a bold move to get kicked out of one parent’s house for being a nightmare and then show up at the other’s demanding the biggest bedroom, but that’s exactly what her daughter just did to her.
This woman has a 21-year-old daughter who has spent the last year living with her dad. Not too long ago, her daughter mentioned moving in with her, so she could be closer to where her friends all live.
But she knows that’s a complete lie, and the reason her daughter wants to live with her is that her dad kicked her out of the house after her stepmom cut her off and said she had to go because of how she behaves.
“She left my house because she did not want to follow rules and thought it would be better at her dad’s place until she got cut off. Her stepmom has told me that she never wants to see my daughter again and that she and my ex are being a united front,” she explained.
“I told her she could come back. During the time she left, I moved into my husband’s house, and he has 3 bedrooms for his kids, one for his son, the biggest one, another two for his twin daughters with his ex-wife, and next year we will be building a new room for our youngest daughter, who is 2.”
“I have three kids now: my oldest daughter, my daughter who got cut off by her father, and my youngest daughter. My ex and I had our oldest daughter when we were teen parents, and we now have a granddaughter.”
She agreed to take her daughter in, but stated she would have to sleep in her stepdaughter’s room for a couple of months, as she’s in Europe doing an exchange student program.
At least that would buy them a bit of time to come up with a more concrete living arrangement, but her daughter complained she was being unfair before demanding to have her stepson’s room, which is the largest one in the house.
She replied that she will not be kicking her stepson out of his room just because she feels entitled to it. She once more directed her daughter to the free bedroom or said she could let her sleep on the couch if that wasn’t good enough.

“She still insisted that I give her my stepson’s room, so my husband suggested that she can pay rent for his son’s room if she wants it so bad; otherwise, a room or the couch is available, simple as that,” she continued.
“Tell me why this little girl had the audacity to get disrespectful with me, call me by my real name, and say I wasn’t a good mother for not forcing my stepson to give up his room.”
“I am a pretty understanding person, but I do not think she has a right to tell me how to run my household and demand things from minors just for her. So I told her if she INSISTS on this, she can continue living with her dad, or she won’t be welcome back here.
She’s left wondering if she’s a jerk for laying down the law with her daughter.
Her daughter sounds like nothing but a spoiled brat, so I’m having a difficult time understanding why she wants to invite her into her home in the first place.
This girl is already causing problems, so she should let her find somewhere else to live and figure it out on her own. She’s old enough to do that, as she’s an adult.
It’s becoming obvious to me why her ex and his wife want nothing to do with her daughter.
What do you think? Should she even welcome her daughter into her house after how she acted?
