We have told you many stories about how adult children, living under the same roof as their parents, have demonstratedbehaviorthat was far from being adult. And there are, in fact, a lot of such tales. However, as it turns out, there are also completely opposite plots. And here is one of them.
This story, from the useru/ComorbidMIs, clearly demonstrates that even people in their late 40s can behave childishly, subject to unexpected outbursts of rage for completely petty and insignificant reasons. For example, a bent mosquito net on the window…

The author didn’t fix it properly since he was in a hurry to meet his friend for lunch
However, after returning home the author found out that his parents trashed his room in “revenge”
The parents also didn’t consider themselves guilty, claiming it was just their property—that’s all
There were about ten minutes left before the planned meeting with their friend, and the guy started to get nervous. He urgently called hisparentsto find out where they were. They were approaching but were still about an hour and a half away—so waiting for them was not an option. And then the author took extreme measures…
No, he didn’t break down the doors, if that’s what you were thinking! There was a mosquito net on one of the windows and, having bent it a bit, our hero got inside. Then he found the keys and, having closed the doors, hurried to meet his friend. The mosquito net remained bent, but the guy had no time to fix it. He hoped that his parents would not notice this, and figured he would carefully fix everything.
Yes, that’s right. Despite the fact that the author also lives in this house, the parents obviously considered themselves entitled to do this to his stuff. And what outraged our hero even more was that they didn’t consider themselves guilty in this situation at all, but on the contrary, accused him of “breaking a window” and “being excessively forgetful.” So the guy decided to take it online seeking support.
“In any case, the very fact that literally one bent mosquito net made the parents so furious, says a lot. On the other hand, it seems to me that they were perfectly aware of what they were doing – at least they didn’t touch any equipment, which is not very natural for people in a furious state.”
“And, regarding advice for the future. They say that separation from parents is a long and not always pleasant process, especially for children. And this situation, it seems to me, can become an excellent incentive for this young man to reconsider his relationship with his parents. In any case, their relationship should no longer be the same as before,” Irina presumes.
Yes, the responders sincerely believe that the author’s parents behaved completely unacceptably. “Your parents express anger worse than my 4 year old. Hope you’re able to get out soon,” another person added. “Your parents are insane. I hope you can move out,” was one of the wisest pieces of advice. And what do you, our dear readers, think about this particular situation?
