I flipped out when my mother-in-law demanded special foods at my kids’ birthday party.

Today’s woman talks about a tense moment at her kids’ birthday party in a heated family drama. Her mother-in-law insisted on special foods, which turned a happy event into a tense argument. She was under so much pressure to make everything happen the way she wanted it that she finally lost it and had a dramatic outburst.

She told us what happened.

My four- and five-year-old kids had a birthday party last weekend. Their birthdays are two weeks apart, so it’s easier to have one party with all of their grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins.

I got some pizza and made nachos. The cheese came from that huge can of cheese from the store. That isn’t even cheese, to be honest. The kids also asked for colored buttercream frosting cupcakes, which I ordered from the grocery store. People could drink soda, Hawaiian punch, and water. This is what the kids asked for.

Not all the time does my MIL say she has food allergies. Sometimes it seems like she does. In other words, I’ve seen her eat the same junk food I served at the state fair and Costco pizza.

My husband told his mom what we were having so she could either eat before or bring something to eat. If she didn’t want to, I could get her a salad or something at the pizza place. He did call her and tell her, and she was okay with what we had.

I let everyone know that we have pizza or nachos to eat at the party. MIL wants to know what’s in the nacho cheese. I tell her it’s the big can of cheese and I don’t know. After that, she tells me to dig the can out of the trash so I can tell her what’s inside. I refuse. For sure, she could dig through the trash, I told her. She didn’t eat or do anything but pout.

Then we didn’t have her favorite soda. I then gave her a bottle of water, but it wasn’t the kind she liked. She also didn’t like the chips because they weren’t the kind of pita chips she likes.

After she sang, it was time for cake. She then asked where the cupcakes came from. Then they said we should have bought the ones from Whole Foods instead because they didn’t have as many preservatives.

At this point, I was mad, so I told her she could have a party for the kids and pay for the food and drinks herself. I would get what the kids asked for until then. She got up and left, telling me I should serve food that everyone could eat.

She wants you to say sorry now. My husband says I should say sorry for being rude to his mom. Because the party was for kids, I said no because I could afford to buy them food they would like. She also knew ahead of time what I was going to serve her.
