As a mother - absolutely NOT. No one says that to a mother. The sister in law is out of line.

Op sucks for not holding boundaries and allowing this to continue. She needs to repair her relationship with her kiddo

The sister just wanted to flex. Which would be okay in any other situation, but this is a birthday cake

The sister should have made a straight lemon cake but had a blueberry compote on the side to have people serve themselves as a sauce.

I do not get the take here. Telling someone their kids wish someone else was their mother is disgusting. How about telling that single mother about the root of the issue, Jan

I think the other her sister in law just wants the kids around so they can help with all their kids. Also out of line to tell her that they love her better.

The sister in law was out of line. She isn't their mother.

So SIl is mad OP works too much and miss recitals yet when OP is fof want to spend with her sons she says they rather be with SIL. I bet SIL is adding to the resentment fuel behing OP's back. BTW OP didn't divide financials. Now she exclusive pay for her kids while still contributing to his kid so she still pay more than him. Know where he would be more comfortable? A hotel he could get.

Are they trying to adopt her children? 5:30

@WeirdGreenFruit 1 day ago

if cake sister wanted to impress with a compote, do a lemon one
if she wanted the compote to be blueberry, put it on the side
and like they said, if it needed to be baked in, make 2 cakes lol

My mom had to work two jobs to keep us afloat. I knew she was trying hard to take care of us but I often spent time with my friend’s parents because she couldn’t be there. Now as an adult I regret not showing my mom how grateful I was to her at the time. SIL is definitely the AH for saying what she said, but NAH for caring about those kids. Support parents without judging them. Encouraging a parent to be closer to their kids is great, but judging is NOT helpful or supportive. It’s a stressful job taking care of a family. People sometimes just need a little more grace and empathy… sheesh.

Story 2: I make cakes for my family. I make them according to what my family likes; it's basically a commission. If OP's taste buds don't like blueberry, then you don't add it.
Lemon and blueberries are a common thing, and I admittedly love lemon with blueberries. I leave the blueberries whole so they don't overpower the lemon.
Lemon, just lemon cakes are also a common thing. Sister made a cake to her own personal liking, which is sad. It was OP's birthday and not getting your desired cake hurts; it's a slap in the face to get a cake with an ingredient you don't like.

27:09 the septic tank isn’t going to explode. It’ll just back up and flood the house with sewage.

Also renting porta potties is not a good alternative because people will sneak in to use the toilet and shower.

My mom once made me a pie for my birthday on a milestone birthday where I was really sensitive, I ended up crying because I hate pie lolol. I admited to it a few days later and she felt bad cause she forgot that I don't like pie but I totally get these things are really important at times and if you originally were going to pay to get exactly what you wanted but we're convinced not to it would be really upsetting

The birthday 🎂 one yes she should have made the lemon cake that was asked for. Easy solution!!! If the blueberry compote was thats serious she could have had it on the side for those who wanted that!!!

Tire Story: The sister should reinflate the tire and email the company that she can make the training after all. Then tell your sister she has to go now. That’s a way better punishment than letting her car be towed.

The boys may have said that but that doesn’t mean it’s ok to repeat and use in an argument. But also the root cause of it is maybe because they spend more time with their uncle and aunt than their mom and that’s not sister in laws fault. I’d have to look at my relationship with my children and try harder to spend time with them, give them love and time. I wouldn’t point the finger at someone who has taken care of them and loved them.
