I hurriedly throw away the food that my daughter-in-law prepares, like a selfless mother of the family I cook for everyone by myself. Bashny.Net

Disagreements between generations are common. The world is changing, the worldview is changing, and the older generation does not have time to adapt to the rules of the modern world. But sometimes conservative views of life lead to absurd actions that can destroy friendships in the family.

Lara Olegovna is the grandmother of a young guy, she knows how to clean the house, how to wash things and does not trust new technologies. For her, a vacuum cleaner is a technique that provokes laziness. And the daughter-in-law of Lara Olegovna never did anything with her own hands. So the relationship between Lara Olegovna and her daughter-in-law was, to put it mildly, not very peaceful. Is there a compromise?



Seryozha has been living with me since the age of four. My daughter went abroad 16 years ago and got married. She has a new family and we rarely talk to her. And Sergey became my support for old age. We lived together until Sergey brought his girlfriend to the house.

Alena is studying with Sergey on the same course. They have been dating for two years, and Sergey decided it was time to move in. The students have no money for rent, and we have plenty of room in the house, I was not against them living together. Though I was raised differently. No one had ever dared to live together before marriage.



Sergey is good, he tries to learn well and works as a courier after studying. He is trying for Alena, who is used to receiving gifts and going to cafes on weekends. She can't do anything herself. I thought if she wasn't working, she'd help me around the house. But it wasn't.



When Alena moved in, I thought I would have an assistant and an interviewer. But Alena turned out to be a closed girl, she constantly sits in her room after school, and goes out to the kitchen just to eat something. When I ask her how she's doing, she uses the word "normal." He is constantly sitting in his books, he does not even go out for a walk, but comes to life only when Sergey comes home.



Alena can't cook. She constantly eats semi-finished products, once a week can fry an omelet or cook noodles. And about washing delicate things by hand, she probably never heard. How can you throw everything without sorting into a washing machine? I have to do everything for her. I take and wash the stains that were not washed in the washing machine, and I wash my clothes again.



I have never seen Alena helping Sergei get ready for university. He doesn't iron his shirt or make breakfast. Since Alena is a future wife, she should be able to clean up and take care of her husband. But it's not about her. She can't wash the floor. Recently, a robot vacuum cleaner broke down, so she clobbered on the floor with a cloth - only the dirt spread even more. Then I had to teach her again.

I'd rather watch me do everything, and I'd have a mustache. Alena doesn't seem to notice what I'm telling her. How can she not understand that only I can show her what my grandson needs? The daughter-in-law does not hear the advice, and I only hope that this first love from Seryozha will pass and he will find a sensible wife.



The editorial board of Lara Olegovna seems like everything should revolve around her. She's older and more experienced, she's raised a boy and knows what's best for him. My grandmother is used to my grandson living with me. The time will come, and he will move to another house with his chosen one, and it will be only his decision. Lara Olegovna is understandable, she expects gratitude and respect from her grandson and his girlfriend. Only she doesn’t understand that no one asks her for advice, and that’s the problem.

If Lara Olegovna continues in this way, she may be escorting out the ungrateful daughter-in-law. But there will be a new one in its place. The world is changing, new people are thinking in different categories. Once you have to let children go free swimming, and if you follow them all your life, they will never be able to become independent.
