Mother chooses kitchen over gay son’s tuition
A mother prioritizes kitchen renovations over her gay son’s tuition causing a family feud. Her mother-in-law refused to pay for her children’s education if they didn’t attend private Christian or Catholic schools. Her son chose a Christian college, but after coming out to his cousin, he was outed to his intolerant grandmother who cut off financial support. The mother and her husband cannot afford to pay for their son’s final year and plan to use their savings on much-needed kitchen renovations. The son is devastated and feels betrayed, but the mother argues that he is an adult and must deal with the consequences. The situation has caused a rift in the family, and the mother plans to go no contact with her intolerant mother-in-law once her other two children’s tuition is paid for. What do you think? Is the mother in the wrong for choosing kitchen renovations over her son’s education or is the son responsible for his own tuition?
