Mom Tells Daughter to Cook for Herself If She Doesn’t Like Her Cooking ️

Imagine cooking for your teenage daughter, only to have her constantly criticize your culinary skills and compare them to her stepmom’s. That’s the situation a 40-year-old mother finds herself in after her ex-husband moves back to town with his new wife. The daughter, Erin, can’t seem to enjoy her mom’s cooking anymore, even her old favorites. After weeks of complaints and refusals to eat, the mom finally snaps and tells Erin to cook for herself if she doesn’t like the food. But is she in the wrong for doing so? Let’s dive into this culinary conundrum! ️
