My entitled Mother Law steals my entire collection of vintage keys, selling it at a pawn shop,

0:05.5

just so she can buy herself a new phone. Things got so bad that the police got involved and my mother-law eventually

0:11.7

got arrested.

0:12.6

And now as a result, my wife is walking out of our house

0:16.4

claiming that I had no right to have her mother arrested.

0:19.6

And I'm honestly at the point where I'm considering a divorce,

0:22.2

leaving me completely unsure of what to do next.

0:24.8

Here's what happened.

0:25.8

Okay, so my mother-law is insanely entitled, and my wife's enabling of her has made our marriage very hard at times. My mother-law has come to us for money a lot

0:35.2

1:04.7

My mother-law is also overweight because she eats out a lot.

1:08.4

So anyways, recently my mother-law came to us wanting me specifically to buy her a new smartphone as an unprompted gift,

1:16.0

and she threw a fit when I refused, and I mean like a child temper tantrum kind of fit.

1:21.2

Now why did she want a new phone so suddenly? Hers was two years old.

1:25.2

That is literally it. As far as I know, it still worked fine. Even my wife has confirmed this.

1:30.5

But my mother-law was resolute that she deserved a new phone.

1:33.8

And before leaving, my mother-law yelled at us that we're supposed to be

1:37.1

pampering her now that she's an old woman, but she's only 53.
