I legit went from “hmm I disagree, but understand where he’s coming from” to “this guy is deluded and crazy”.
Property prices are super high everywhere right now and it’s easy to understand how some people want to live rent free whilst earning so they can enjoy extravagant lifestyles.
But at 40, they’re pushing it too far, to force their 70+ y.o. mother to carry them while they offer nothing in return.
IMO letting them chill for 40 years rent free is more than enough payment for ‘being born’. If they weren’t earning or were disabled etc and needed care etc then it would’ve been fine, but they’re legit deadbeat freeloaders who won’t bat an eyelid if their mom died.
If they haven’t got a place to live, tough. They’ll learn the hard way. 40 years is plenty of time to have figured it out.
To punish her? They didn’t ask to exist, now they do. Why should they have any responsibility?
She’s 75, she’ll likely be passing away soon. If you’ve absolved these two middle aged men from responsibility, who do you expect will provide for them after her passing? Are you opening YOUR wallet to do so?

Because they are grown men with the capacity to be self sufficient?
It’s not the parents who are entitled, here.

You realize the same logic applies for her right? She didn’t ask to be here… why does she have to take care of ungrateful sons?
