    Story 1: OP is good apple. OP has been on them from day one to take care of their end of things. There is no excuse unless doc has put her on bed rest for the daughter in law to not be picking up after herself. If she can fix herself food, she can put her dirty dishes in the sink. She can even take 5 seconds to rinse them off so that they are ready to go into the dishwasher. Dirty clothes in a hamper. And so forth. No excuse to disrespect someone else’s home that is allowing you to stay in by not picking up after yourself even at 8 months pregnant.

      @s.a.4358 Před 2 dny +8

      Agreed. There is no discussion of deep cleaning or going on her hands and feet to scrub the floor. Putting one’s shoes away - or even just taking them off in a spot where they are not a tripping hazard - and taking care of dirty dishes after eating is not a crazy expectation.
      I do agree that kicking an 8 months pregnant woman out the house is not a good idea, even if they are super annoying, but I think OP just had enough after tripping. She could have seriously hurt herself or even broken something. The daughter-in-law’s actions are a potential danger to others.

      Though I will agree with Mrs. Rogers that she should have spoken up months before. She did ask them over and over, but she never gave them the ultimatum when this girl was in a physical standing to be able to do it and stick to it. I agree she is being messy and needs to help clean up. I carried both my kids to 10 months and not only did I work to nine months, and seven months with my kids, but I cleaned up fully until I was nine months pregnant. But the stress that you put on a pregnant woman that’s eight months pregnant by threatening to kick her out for things that she may now have a limitation for that she did not have limitations for before could cause unnecessary stress on the baby

      Yeah, most women can do light chores all the way up until giving birth. If there was some chores she couldn't do, like sitting on her knees or picking up something, she can ask for chores she can do. Laundry, dishes, putting away things. There is no excuse to do nothing.

    On number one she said that when she walked in the door and tripped over the daughter in laws shoe while carrying groceries that was the last straw. Just because you're 8 months pregnant doesn't mean you can't move your shoes. Yes she can't scrubs a floor or toilet but she can do dishes and not leave her crap around the house. And she has been complaining all along but the daughter in law just ignored her.

    Honestly at 8 months it is harder to move but chores are not a problem . Now I wouldn't be crawling on the floor washing it by hand but they make mops. The more you move and stretch the easier labor is. So if her Dr doesn't have any restrictions there is no problem cleaning

      Exactly. If she can take her shoes off she can decide where to take them off. If she can get food out of the fridge she should be expected to throw the plate in the sink (or garbage depending on material.) All the mom wants is her to pick up after herself, not do all these back bending activities.

    Story #1 - I feel this is a tough situation because everyone is stressed and in a tense spot. OP is already resenting the living situation, the son and daughter-in-law are stressed about their situation, and the daughter-in-law has the added strain of being pregnant. Basically no one is happy. For right now, I think OP should allow them to stay until the baby is born (because it's the decent thing to do) but afterward it would probably be better for everyone if the son and his wife moved out. Yes, they'd struggle for a little bit, but it would be better in the long-run.

    On #1, I’ve had two very large boys. I was cleaning until the day they were born. At this stage she probably can’t get on hands and knees but they do make tools. Unless there is an enclosed room and materials with fumes are used, there isn’t really any restrictions unless she is having complications and has to be on bed rest. I was even cleaning some on bed rest. She is being lazy. Being active is actually good for labor and recovery. I ended up with 2 c-sections because my boys’ shoulders wouldn’t fit through my pelvis, but being active definitely helped with recovery and being able to take care of my boys. OP is good apple.

Also, different women have different limits in what they can and can't do during pregnacy but I do believe OP is a good apple to expect her DIL to clean up after herself or for her son to pick up the slack. I've also seen a woman 8 months pregnant wearing heels and shopping and another one 9 months along just before her due date, out partying at a club. Some women can just do it. 🤣

He constantly brings up stuff that happened in the past and rarely asks about what's currently going on or what plans are for future stuff. It's honestly toxic even though I still like him as a friend, I'm just glad we only do occasional video calls since he lives out of state from me.

    Story 1 We weren't given a list of what the "choirs" are, so it's hard to know if it's reasonable for a pregnant person. If we are talking about getting up and throwing away trash after eating a snack then yeah she can do it. If we mean bending down and picking up her shoes that might be difficult. Maybe slipping off her shoes at least in a corner out of the way. I'd say anything that requires heavy lifting or bending down would be unreasonable, and no I don't mean throwing something on the floor and going well now I can't pick that up. I actually got pretty good picking up things with my feet during pregnancy.
    Story 4 It was not ok to call her a loser. Her mom should have told Kelly that about Sarah instead of sinking to that level. There should have been a conversation on what Kelly should/could do to be where she wants to be financially. Ultimately, Kelly needs to stop fixating on this competition she's created with Sarah, and focus more on Kelly, herself. The mom trying to solve this by telling her daughter she's a loser in this unhealthy competition helps nobody. Kelly will absolutely now double down.

    Personally; all good apples. I’ve been pregnant (twice) & yes, there are things at 8 months along I wouldn’t recommend, but picking up after yourself, putting your dishes away & keeping things neat and tidy are completely reasonable unless on strict bed rest. By the way, if the DIL is this bad now, wait til the baby is born! She’s going to blame “taking care of the baby/child” as an excuse to do nothing & expect everyone around her to wait on her hand & foot. Line needs to be drawn in the sand now or they need to move out.
    Third story; I’m sorry but run, break it off, he’s toxic & you don’t need that let alone your children! He’s trying to push out their late father’s family!!! That’s disgusting. He has to go girl, please if not for you, for your kids!

If someone who peaked in high school feels entitled to more than someone who worked hard and justifies it saying the other person was a loser in high school, it isn’t even bullying to tell them they’re the loser now. That’s just meeting them where they are by using their own terminology to get through to them how the situation has changed.

    For story 3 I'm super confused. Why is the husband's late parents not considered family? Because 1 those are her children's grandparents, and that is her children's family. And since her children are her family, her children's family are her family. And 2, who doesn't consider they're married family their new family. For my family, when some marries our relatives, we practically adopt their spouse into our family. Is that not a normal thing? So in my mind, she should've already considered them family before the children even came into the equation.

    #1- unless there are pregnancy complications, she can absolutely do quite a bit of cleaning. And at 8 months, extra energy often kicks in in the form of nesting. Sounds like she is using her pregnancy as an excuse for not doing anything to help out. Also, it sounded like the mom has been asking for months, and it just came to a breaking point here.

  • @demetrinight5924
    @demetrinight5924 Před 2 dny +1

    For the first story even if she is on light activity, she can put her take off her shoes in the designated area and not leave her dishes and things wherever. And the mother-in-law has been asking both her son and mother to be to clean the whole time. I'm not sure if the OP was a good apple but she was mostly justified in having an issue with the daughter-in-law's messiness.

    Story 1: She has been asking for months however I think waiting until NOW to finally have enough and threaten to kick them out might be a little bit of bad timing so I think crab apple is still fair.
    Story 2: No you are an adult you're not the bad apple.
    Story 3: He's being ridiculous. That is your children's grandparents! Girl please RUN!
    Story 4: Sometimes tough love is what is needed so good apple

      Yeah I agree with 1. Putting the foot down now rather than sooner did make op look bad. She had 6 months before this blew up. I feel like it's punishing the unborn child too.

    @youleczka Před 2 dny +1

    In story number 1 mom asked both her son and DiL to clean after themselves the moment they moved in (she said it was 6 month prior so DiL was only 2 months pregnant). She also repeated it multiple times. I am 5 months pregnant and I do all the house chores. By the end of the pregnancy I could see how it can get tough but sorry DiL was living in this house for months so no excuse for her.

    For story number one, the mother said that the daughter-in-law has not been cleaning for the last 6 months either. So she would have only been too much pregnant rather than eight. I think the daughter-in-law. It's just messy.

    Someone who was in the right - Good Apple
    Someone who was in the wrong - Bad Apple
    Someone who was in the middle (grey area) - Crab Apple
    All Good Apples in a story - Good bushel
    All Good Apples in a video - Apple Pie
    All Bad Apples in both a story and/or the video - Bad Batch
    (If I’m missing any terms, lemme know and I’ll edit!)
    Side note, for all Crab Apples in a video (which hasn’t happened yet), I recommend Crab Cakes, Crab Basket, or Crab Batch. I personally like Crab Cakes the most

    For story 1: I became pregnant immediately after my first child. I'm also a military spouse. House hold chores, grocery shopping landed mostly on me. I was pregnant and had an infant. She was asked and told if you stay at the house you need to help with the chores. Not a crab apple from my point of view. Unless she was on bed rest/limited activity then maybe but she can still pick up after herself and do some small things. My 3rd child I was on limited activities. Which once again stationed overseas, military spouse most things landed on me and I had to be very careful, but still was able to keep a clean house.

  • @SusanneMBarrett
    @SusanneMBarrett Před 3 dny +1

    #1: Good apple all the way. The mom was asking them to clean up after themselves before they ever moved in. There is nothing to keep a woman who is eight months pregnant from picking up her shoes so that people don't trip!! The mom has asked and asked both her son and his girlfriend/wife over and over to clean up after themselves. Good apple all the way!!! (And I was doing normal cleaning around the house until birth with all four of my kids despite complications with all four pregnancies. The son's girlfriend/wife has no excuse!

    My dad died when I was 11yo & we were very close to his parents. When my mom (whose parents both died before my dad) got a boyfriend and it turned long term, we still had Sunday dinners with my grandparents every week. My mom & stepdad were closer to my dad’s family than even stepdad’s family. It really is what you make of it. But I will definitely say that if stepdad didn’t want a relationship with my grandparents, my mom would have cut ties with stepdad.

    @maninblue88 Před 2 dny

    As far as the first story is concerned, I agree with your "Crab Apple" ruling, and I'll give you some context as to why I'm doing so. My cousin got pregnant with her first child at 27, and her then fiance and now husband worked full time. Her pregnancy was rough and high-risk, but even despite that, she did all the necessary housekeeping tasks up until her 8th month. After that point, me and my other cousins would come over to her house periodically and help out with the more physical tasks as needed. Her little boy is now almost 2 1/2 and things are back to normal for them, but that's why I agree with "Crab Apple" here.

  • @victoriamccausland8322

    1st story. I’ve had 2 children. While I was pregnant both times, I still cleaned, cooked and worked a full time job. It is tough to pick things up at 8 months bc you can’t even see your feet at that stage so it’s tough. It also depends on if she’s considered a high risk pregnancy, when that happens, it is recommended by the doctor that the mom to be stays off her feet. I’d say the MIL is a crab apple 🦀🍎

  • @carjohnsxn
    @carjohnsxn Před 2 dny

    For story 1: I'm not a mom either, and while I know that times are different now, my mom always reminds me that pregnant women in our village used to work outside, picking olives and strawberries, until they were in labor. She even told me stories of women giving birth while working. It's insane to think about nowadays, but moral of this story is, if pregnant women were able to do this not even 40 years ago, unless they're on doc mandated bed rest, they are absolutely capable of cleaning up after themselves a little. From the story, it doesn't sound like OP is asking her to do something super strenuous, just some tidying up.

  • @braelynheltne6328
    @braelynheltne6328 Před 6 hodinami

    I've had 3 kids and difficult pregnancies. At 8mo I was working as a nanny and cleaning for work. She is not very physically limited. She can do everything except maybe a lot of picking up off the floor. It's easier pregnant than postpartum and she's just making a massive mess so she isn't just not cleaning, she's making it worse. Definitely good apple. Better now than before the baby comes. Then she may never get her to change.

    For the first story, it sounded like the mom was asking for months but kind of blew up at the daughter in law at 8 months pregnant. I’’ve never been pregnant, I’m not a mom, and not even a woman… so I showed this to my mother. My mother stated that she thinks the expectation is that the daughter in law tidy up after herself, not clean. Pregnant women can do things like use their foot to slide their shoes out of a walking path, clear off the bathroom counter by putting make up back in the make up bag, and move the dirty dishes to the sink. She understands cleaning as scrubbing the sink, mopping the floor, or anything else that involves cleaning supplies rather than just moving stuff around to clear space. My and my mother’s interpretation of this was the expectation of the daughter in law to tidy up after herself, not clean.

  • @ImageGuy137
    @ImageGuy137 Před 2 dny

    Story #1 OP says that she was bugger her since she was about 2 months pregnant. The fact the daughter-in-law can't clean after herself at 2-6 months is slothy, lazy, slobby. 8 months is one month away from birth but the fact OP couldn't pick up after herself before makes OP good apple.

    Isn't it funny how people only whip out the "maybe you shouldn't be so political" when you say something they don't agree with it.

  • @elizabethdankert1
    @elizabethdankert1 Před 3 dny

    Story #1. It's true that you are limited. You can't be out in the heat for a long period of time, you shouldn't clean the cat litter or use bleach, but if s pregnant person truly believes they can't complete household chores like the dishes, or the laundry, taking out the trash, etc. Then they are in for a hard life.
    I've been pregnant 4 times and the only time I was ever limited on what I did was this last time because I had hyperemesis and I was basically dead. No exaggerating there. UNTIL I got my zofran pump and my sub q pump for fluids. Then I was able to cook and clean again.

    Story 3: I couldn't possibly agree more with what you said about major red flags. What if the three children speak of their father and their "bonus person" (not using the f word, he'll never be that) says that they need to move past their father cause he's dead. I could actually see this guy saying something so awful. She needs to put her children first and wash that man right out of her hair. Story 4: I might have said crabapple if the daughter hadn't called her sister a loser. She put the word out into the ether. The daughter could go back to college or a trade school and find herself a more lucrative career. Or maybe realize that she might have some advantages that her younger sister doesn't have. Many her sister has to spend a lot of time at work or has more stress with the responsibility of her career. There's got to be something because no one person's life is golden, there are tradeoffs in life.

    Story 1: Good apple. First she’s been asking for months for them to clean and they were told they needed to do that before moving in. Also, my bff was in a car accident when she was pregnant and messed up her back and she was still able to do minor cleaning. She load and unloaded the dishwasher, picked up her clothes, put clothing in the washer and dryer ( her husband had to get it out because she’s short and the machines were top loading). She also was able to pick up her own shoes and didn’t take them off where someone could trip over them.

    When I was pregnant with my 3rd my 2nd was Les than a year old. They are 16 months apart. I was carrying my 1 year old and changing diapers and washing dishes and clothes and cleaning house at 8 months pregnant. It can be done. even if it is ideal to want to rest and relax it is not practical or considerate of other people’s time and money to do

  • @DebbieFromGA

    Story one: I cleaned, cooked, and worked full-time until 5 pm the day before my son was born at 2 am the next morning.
    That said, it wasn't easy, and my house wasn't pristine. But I was able to do everything that was needed. However, every pregnancy is different. I have a friend who said she was so glad her first was easy, and her baby wasn't fussy because her second pregnancy was rough, and that baby was very fussy.
    I understand being frustrated with the clutter.

    Story 1 perspective. I totally agree crabapple. From the sound of it she has been asking for them to clean since day one and is just fed up.
    On the pregnancy side, She could have really bad pregnancy brain. When pregnant, your brain shrinks similar to what happens when you're drunk. For little things like leaving dishes out and shoes on the floor, that is totally understandable. I mean with both my pregnancies I for some reason put our toaster in the fridge almost every day. No idea why.
    On a more serious end I had health issues which my second pregnancy that literally made it unsafe for me to do basic everyday cleaning. I actually lost friends over it because my sink was always full of dirty dishes. (Baby was pushing on an artery and I would pass out if I stood for more than 5 min)I know there is no mention of restrictions, but in my experience it sometimes doesn't matter how well you explain restrictions, some people just don't get it.
