Redditors Are Cracking Up At A Boy Who Dished His Brother-In-Law’s Food On Tiny Toy Utensils
"If you want to act like a helpless child, you'll be treated as one."
A pregnant woman, a tired household, and a plate of food served on toy utensils, that is the kind of petty move Reddit loves to debate.
In this story, the OP says he moved in with his married sister, whose husband treats her like the family servant because he earns the money. With his sister six months pregnant and worn out from constant demands, the tension at dinner finally boiled over when the husband expected to be served at the table.
That is when the OP decided to make his point in the most childish way possible. Read on.

It can be annoying to see a loved one treated badly by their partner, so the OP’s actions are somewhat understandable. It must have been a really funny scene, as the OP’s sister had a good laugh.
