Every day, my husband’s younger brother and wife come to us to eat, leaving the mountain unwashed with dishes.

Shared housing with relatives sooner or later leads to conflict situations. This is due to the fact that different generations, thinking and values greatly affect relationships. A common roof with mother-in-law and regular reception of relatives of the husband can somewhat disrupt the home idyll.

Life with mother-in-law Elizabeth and Kirill once again accompanied relatives and went to wash dishes. Every night, Kirill’s brother and young wife come to them for dinner. Their apartments are separated by only 2 stairwells, so there is no barrier for relatives in front of the table.



Peels Elizabeth has long been unhappy with such a neighborhood. After all, almost every day these young people come by invitation and eat their products. Invitations come from Victoria Stepanovna, Elizabeth's mother-in-law, who also lives in this apartment. She considers it her duty to provide her sons with food, even if she does not pay for this food.

All expenses for the apartment and kitchen have long been assumed by Elizabeth and Kirill. They never demanded anything from Victoria Stepanovna. Let him enjoy his retirement. But when Kirill's younger brother settled in their entrance, the situation worsened.



Apparently, in the representation of Victoria Stepanovna, her youngest son is not able to provide himself with food. There is no other way to explain her desire to feed a young couple. At first he and his wife were really hard. And then Elizabeth herself invited relatives for lunch or dinner. But time passed, and the relatives kept coming. Their financial situation was far from so bad.



As it turned out, Kirill’s brother and his wife do not even buy groceries. Because it's just not necessary. Both have breakfast at work, lunch at diners, and dinner away. At the same time, they are actively purchased with modern technology.

Elizabeth thought this was wrong and unfair. She asked Victoria Stepanovna to stop inviting her youngest son to dinner. After all, all the products and expenses of the mother-in-law they pay with Kirill. Such cohabitation is very expensive. They’re just tired of taking someone home. To which Elizabeth heard:

- My sons! Feed whenever I want!



A possible way out of the situation, Kirill also did not like this state of affairs. He was especially annoyed by the fact that it was impossible to relax after work. Instead of a quiet evening at your favorite thing, you have to constantly wash the dishes and pretend that he is happy with the guests. After learning about the conversation between Elizabeth and his mother, he proposed to limit the financial support of the latter. Because otherwise she won't understand. And even if he doesn't, he can't. He also promised to talk to his younger brother. If he does not notice that he causes inconvenience to people, let him know about it from him personally.



Peels, of course, will most likely start to resent them. Victoria Stepanovna, younger brother and his wife. Elizabeth was somewhat concerned about this, but Kirill only laughed in response:

- If Mom's gonna be so bad with us, there's a nice apartment two floors down.

Will it be right if the couple proceeds in accordance with the plan of Kirill? How can you tell your family that their presence is not welcome? Shouldn’t a younger brother feel shame for constantly taking advantage of the kindness of his relatives?
