Parenting is a tough job that starts as the baby is born and never ends.
Parenting is definitely a difficult job because the kids may get older but some of them would still need parenting. Some of them would still be difficult to handle. A father took it to Reddit to share his situation. He has a daughter and a son. His son is handicapped and on a wheelchair since he had an accident. His daughter moved out for college and then she was living with her boyfriend. Two years ago, OP called his daughter and asked her if he can move his son into her room since she was not using it. She agreed and OP renovated the room and shifted his son to the room that was big so his wheelchair can easily be moved around.
One day, OP’s daughter got into a fight with her boyfriend and broke up with him. She decided to move back to the house and wanted his father to empty her old room for her where Jonathan (OP’s son) was living. Scroll down to read what was OP’s response after hearing his daughter’s demand.
1. OP is a father of 2 kids. His son has mobility issues and his daughter, Natalie, moved out for college at the age of 18.

OP’s daughter is an adult now and her demand is unreasonable. OP should not listen to her. It would be unfair to his handicapped son. Natalie should go out and find herself a job so she can afford a bigger room.
