“My Grandchildren See Fresh Fruit Only Once a Month While I Buy Premium Cat Food—Now My Daughter-in-Law Accuses Me of Being Heartless…” My daughter-in-law has taken to shaming me for buying quality food for my cats when ‘her children only see fruit once a month.’ She implies I’m cold and selfish, but isn’t it her and my son’s job to provide for their kids? My cats only have me. When I dared suggest to my son and his wife that it might be time to slow down on having babies, I was brusquely told to mind my own business. So I do—I feed my cats and listen to my daughter-in-law’s outraged complaints.
My grandchildren only get fresh fruit once a month, but shes buying expensive food for her cats, my daughter-in-law

I Called Out the Window, “Mum, Why Are You Up So Early? You’ll Catch Your Death!” She Turned, Waving Her Shovel: “I’m Doing This for You Lazybones.” The Next Day, Mum Was Gone… Even Now I Can’t Pass Our Garden Without My Heart Breaking: Each Time I See That Path, It Feels Like Someone’s Gripping My Chest. I Took That Photo on the Second of January—Just Passing By, I Saw Mum’s Footprints in the Snow and Stopped. Snapped a Picture Without Knowing Why; Now, It’s All That Remains From Those Days… We Always Celebrated New Year Together as a Family. On the 31st, Mum Was Up Early, Making Her Legendary Fried Cutlets, Calling Me Down in Her Peach-Print Apron. Dad Brought Home a Giant Tree (“Blimey, Dad, Did You Chop Down the Whole Forest?”), Mum Dusted Off Our Old Decorations—Including the Glass Angel She Got Me for My First Christmas. My Brother Showed Up With Champagne, My Sister and I Decorated, and at Midnight We All Went Outside. Sparklers, Mum by My Side, Whispering, “Isn’t Life Wonderful?”—And I Whispered Back, “The Best, Mum.” We Laughed Until We Cried, Mum Dancing in Her Wellies, Dad Spinning Her Round. The Next Morning, Mum Was Back in the Kitchen (“Save Room, It’s Only the Start of the Holidays!”), and On the 2nd, I Saw Her Clearing the Snow-Covered Path, Just Like Always (“Or You Lot Will End Up Trudging Through Drifts Till Spring—Put the Kettle On, Will You?”). That Was the Last Time I Heard Her Cheerful Voice. On the 3rd, She Murmured, “Girls, My Chest Hurts a Bit…”—Brushed Off the Ambulance (“Just Tired, Love”), Joked as Always, but Suddenly, Something Was Deeply Wrong—Her Last Words, “I Love You So Much… Hate to Say Goodbye.” Everything Happened in a Blink: One Day She Was Dancing Under Fireworks, and the Next, She Was Gone. I Stood in the Snow, Staring at Her Footprints from Gate to Porch—The Last Path She Cleared for Us, and I Couldn’t Bear to Let the Snow Hide Them. That Photo of Mum’s Final Tracks—I Look at It Every Third of January, Staring at the Bare Path Where Her Footprints Once Were, Realising: Beneath That Snow, She Left Her Last Mark. And Somehow, I’m Still Following Her Steps…
I remember calling out of the window, Mum, what are you doing outside so early? Youll catch your death!
