Rude or no?

I always cook for my Mum, I make an effort to cook nice things, never ask her to contribute. She comes over once a week. Never compliments my cooking, doesn’t thank me for cooking. Always leaves a fair amount. I know I’m a good cook but she has the palette of a child. She never offers to cook for us, if we suggest a takeaway she doesn’t offer to pay her share. I’m sick of it. Is she being rude or am I being silly?

She's being rude

💯 she's rude asf

I'd stop inviting her over during meal times.

Could you dish up at the table so she can choose her own food and decide the portion? I find my mum eats tiny amounts nowadays! When we have guests and decide to get a takeaway we don't expect them to pay unless they've offered ahead of time. It would be nice of her to offer though! If her presence isn't bringing you joy then I'd stop inviting her over as a regular thing.

@Caroline she plates herself a bigger portion if anything then leaves loads. We don’t expect her to pay every time but I wouldn’t dream of going to someone’s house and not even offering to contribute even if they said no. There’s only so many times it can be our treat. She never invites us to her house for food or offers to treat us to a takeaway. Feels like a lot of taking with zero giving

Just don’t invite her over anymore if she’s going to be like that.

Yeah maybe have dinner before she comes?

She might feel entitled because she fed you as a child?

@Anna👼👶👼👼 she comes for the whole day

@Jadie she probably does but i don’t agree with parents who chose to have kids thinking their kids owe them something
