Mom Kicked Her 18-Year-Old Son Out After Learning He Was Repeatedly Peeing His Bed On Purpose To Spite The Housekeeper

Teenagers can be chaotic. It might be due to their age, their parenting, or even their hormones, but they are in a certain phase where feelings become intense.

These feelings can trigger destructive behaviors that may potentially target innocent people when they act out. They might take out their frustrations on someone as close as their parents or as random as the housekeepers.

It's possible that housekeepers show up in homes with families they work for. Sometimes, other people go out of line, thinking they can mess with them just because they are hired for a job.

In a subreddit post, a mom asked Redditors if she was the a**hole for kicking out her son, who kept peeing on his bed. At first, it might be appalling to think of a mom doing that, but here's more context.

The mom explained that her son was already eighteen years old and was peeing on his bed on purpose to spite their housekeeper. There wasn't any indication that the housekeeper was doing something wrong, which would explain the exasperation of the original poster (OP).

Peeing the sheets wasn't the only thing her son did to make the housekeeper's work harder, and the worst part is that OP's husband thinks his behavior is normal for teenagers. OP was pushed to the limit one day when her son disregarded her plea to stop.

OP's story gets more interesting

OP was approached by their housekeeper, Mary, to raise her concerns after keeping quiet for a while about the situation

throaway87284

OP confronted her son about his wrongdoings, and he admitted that he was purposely doing everything because he wanted Mary to quit

Luke hasn't had the best track record when it comes to good behavior, but he is still coddled by OP's husband

throaway87284

OP decided to do the hard thing, and despite her husband's thoughts, she kicked her son out

throaway87284

She thinks it might be the only way he'll learn, and her son seemed to view it as an opportunity to get OP off his back

The son's behavior is undoubtedly questionable for most Redditors

If they were in the same situation, they would have just let him live with the consequences of his actions

People then continued to discuss the treatment of housekeepers

A housekeeper can maximize the ways you clean the house

Ok_Smell1069

So having them do small, time-consuming jobs could be a waste of money

Ok_Smell1069

Redditors suggest that even with a housekeeper, one could organize before they clean. This way, there wouldn't be confusion about where things are

But there are also housekeepers who do a great job in both areas

For people who suffer from mental disabilities, having a housekeeper might help them with tasks they have a hard time managing

SomethingTrippy420

Some housekeepers lack traits that could frustrate you

But excel in other areas that would make you not want to let them go

This Redditor is looking forward to seeing how beneficial having a housekeeper could be

Sometimes messes build up

HistoFash

They would have done it to him too and not put up with his attitude

ronearc

If he can put a lot of effort into messing with Mary...

NWFlint

then he might have enough energy to clean up after himself

NWFlint

Hopefully, his dad will catch on that this will affect everyone in the long run if the son isn't disciplined

Chance-Ad-9952

Some would take it even further to give the son what they think he deserves

dreamerofthesky

Those who experience having accidents actually have tough paths to deal with

CeelaChathArrna

and for them, it is already horrifying not being able to control it

CeelaChathArrna

But since the son is doing it on purpose, there's a chance that it could get out of control

CeelaChathArrna

He thinks he always has a way out with the scolding

Survivor_of_hells

Maybe he'll finally figure out why it's such a concern

AccousticMotorboat

A good point from one of the Redditors

farsical111

There were a lot of assumptions that it might be a sign of a mental diagnosis, but someone shed light on the issue

OP might have been hurt and felt slightly guilty for kicking her son out despite his actions. But many have rallied to show her that she was right in her decision.

It could have been worse if both she and her husband had let it go. The housekeeper might also quit, and they would have a hard time finding a good one in the future.
