A brazen niece was going to live in my house for all 5 years of her education, decided to put her sister and her daughter in their place

When a cousin's daughter comes to visit and is left with the first few weeks before moving into her own home, that's one thing. It is quite different when her mother begins to demand to leave her daughter for good and provide everything she needs. Does my sister have the right to demand that? Does the aunt’s job really include such services?



The daughter of a cousin Olga's niece came to visit by the beginning of the school year. The girl entered a local higher education institution, and Olga, along with her family, temporarily sheltered a young student. The one from the small town where she lived with Anna, Olga's cousin.



Since it takes some time to rent a room in a dormitory or apartment, Olga understood the position of her niece. Especially since the girl was quiet and did not cause much trouble. And although Olga and her husband, son and daughter became crowded, they were ready to endure this inconvenience for a couple of weeks.

Fortunately, the children got along well with their relative and happily allocated her a place in their room. But Olga knew that she could not go on for so long. Soon her children will have to go to school. And everyone needs a place to study.



But one day during a conversation with Anna on the phone Olga suddenly heard a very strange demand. Her cousin insisted that her daughter stay with Olga for the duration of her studies. And Olga is obliged to give her niece a room where she can study in complete silence. From such a statement, Olga was simply outraged. It all ended in a nasty fight.



Olga’s attitude towards her niece did not change even after a tense conversation with her relative. After all, the girl had nothing to do with it. Unlike her mother, she agreed with the plan to find her own home. What they ended up doing.

A week passed and the daughter of a cousin moved into another apartment. Olga and her husband helped her with her things. Since then, almost every Sunday, the niece came to visit Olga, which she and her family were very happy about.



Peels Anna never apologized to Olga. In fact, she stopped calling and talking to her. Olga herself did not want to communicate with a relative. She was struck by Anna's insolence. After all, during all this time she did not even hear the word “thank you”, and already had to support her daughter. Is it okay to treat relatives who have provided help and support?



Peels Life Wisdom: What Does This Story Teach Us? Any service deserves gratitude. Unfortunately, few people remember that. People get used to the good things very quickly and over time start demanding more and more. And when instead of another “yes”, they hear “no”, there is resentment that can destroy the relationship.

Those who routinely come to the aid of others should always be mindful of their personal space and time. And that they don’t always have to help. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that this will be appreciated.
