The Great Bed Battle of Thanksgiving ️

Our 6’6″ protagonist has had enough of giving up his room every Thanksgiving for his uncle’s brief visit. The room transformation is a tedious process, and sleeping on a short couch leaves him unrested. This year, when his uncle announces he’ll be staying the night again, our young hero decides to stand his ground. He offers alternatives like having dinner earlier or driving his uncle home, but his family isn’t having it. They lecture him about respecting his elders and accuse him of selfishness. Is our towering teen in the right, or is he just being ungrateful? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this family drama…
