Seriously, how common is it in white middle-class American families? Is it different in the black community? Genuinely curious.

I tend to believe this, but I'm no fan of this particular culture, so I'm definitely biased.

My parents drove today to bring the mower back and asked to cover their gas and handed me a $45 receipt. I refused to give them anything. I thought they were helping me since I’m their daughter.

My in-laws do things for my family and never charge us. Heck, my MIL is even putting me through school right now!

Do I have the right to hate my parents’ for this? When I was employed, wrote $1000 for for father’s dental work. I reminded them of that. I hate that they are nickel and diming me for gas money and $45 spare parts!

Thanks for letting me vent.


Let your in laws fix your lawn mower.


MIL actually offered her repairman but I thought my side of the family could actually contribute.


To What? Aren't you an adult?

Why didn't you just ask your rich in-laws to pay for the repair?


PP here, ha! That's what she did!!!

What I don’t understand is why OP’s inlaws don’t just hire them a lawn service?

The bill was for gas on the way back. OP did not present her story clearly which is why several people have been confused by her story.

Your MIL has her own lawnmower repairman? You are so full of s**t, OP.

But I’ll prwtwnd you’re real for a moment. Why do you feel entitled to this “help”? And why are you so insensitive to the fact that your parents can’t afford to help you in the way that your MIL can?

You are either insufferable, or a troll.
