Family generosity can be a beautiful thing… until someone starts taking advantage of it.

When one young woman’s aunt overstayed her welcome and disrespected the household that supported her, she wasn’t sure how much more patience she had left.

Can she finally set some boundaries with her entitled aunt, or is it already too late?

Read on for the full story.

AITA for deciding to only cook for my dad and siblings and not share any food with my aunt who lives with us?

My aunt and her husband have been staying with us for a while. My dad pays for almost everything, including her husband’s cancer treatment, and they live in his house rent-free.

Her aunt never seems to repay this same generosity.

Despite that, my aunt only cooks for herself and her husband.

She doesn’t help around the house, doesn’t cook for my siblings (who don’t have a mom), and never lifts a finger when it comes to daily chores.

Then things got even worse.

Lately, she’s gotten even more disrespectful. She tells my father behind my back that I should live somewhere else so that she can have a room for herself.

This rubs her entirely the wrong way.

I find it incredibly rude and entitled, especially considering everything my dad does for her.

Now she wants to stop helping her aunt altogether.

I’ve reached the point where I’m thinking of making it clear that from now on, I’ll only be cooking for my dad and my siblings — and that she and her husband won’t be getting any food I make.

I know her husband is sick, but the lack of gratitude and basic decency is unbelievable.

AITA?

This aunt needs to find some common courtesy — and fast.

What did Reddit have to say?

This commenter thinks she shouldn’t shy away from letting her aunt know she’s the problem.

It’s time to start matching her energy.

Clear boundaries need to be set.

Her dad needs to start chiming in about the disrespect too.

Kicking her out may be harsh, but so is the disrespect everyone is forced to endure.

You know what they say: Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.
