[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 555882, member: 1233"] The entitlement thing is one I have pondered for years. Even as a teen I couldn't figure out why my gfgbro thought my parents 'owed' him whatever it was that he wanted from them at the time. Why your daughter would think that it was perfectly fine to ask you to give away the furniture in your home so that some guy who she wants to have move in with her will have a bed escapes me. Why would you CARE what the guy sleeps on? Why would you give away your household furniture to anyone? Surely if it is in your home then you bought it because you wanted it. What are you supposed to sit on or lay on in that room if you give away the futon? Why doesn't she just ask you for a few hundred bucks to buy the guy a bed? Same thing, isn't it? You did an AWESOME job of refusing. It isn't easy to refuse, esp when they decide to really pressure you about it. I am sorry that she thinks your home is freecycle and that she can have or give away any of your possessions that she wants. [/QUOTE]
