Imagine working hard all summer to save up for something you really want, only to be told you have to share it with someone who didn’t contribute a dime. That’s the dilemma a 45-year-old mom faced when her sister and nephew moved in, and the nephew demanded to play on her son’s gaming PC. The son, who’s 16, had saved up all summer to build his dream gaming machine. But when his younger cousin wanted to play, his mom had to make a tough decision.
