Now today I've got for you a cracking story from R slash Best of editor updates. How about this for a title? Grandpa is punishing my dad.

I have the power to stop it but don't know if I actually want to. This was originally

posted on June 9th, 2024. I am a 21-year-old woman and I lost my mom when I was 14. My dad remarried when I was 17. My step-mum has a daughter who was 15. She and dad had a boy who was three and now she just gave birth to a little girl.

Anyway, I've worked since I was 16 so I have some money to buy stuff for me.

When I turned 18, dad said I was now an adult and should start paying rent. It was, in quotes, only $500, a symbolic amount since he would still cover food and other essentials. I was mad and we fought but in the end I accepted and that was the arrangement until seven months ago.

Dad came to me saying I had two months to move out.

Step-mum was pregnant and they would need my room for the baby,

which is insane because they both have private offices.

My step-mum doesn't even need one since she's a stay-at-home mom,

since the birth of my baby brother.

Nonetheless, they told me I had to move.

By the way, just an addendum.

Me and my step-mum get on fine.

We don't fight or bicker.

I don't think this was an evil stepma moment, but who knows.
