Woman's Entitled In-Laws Expect Her to Sew and Bake for Free, She Sets Boundaries and Refuses: "Learn to do it youself!'

Welcome, tea-loving ladies. Doing favors for your family members can be quite rewarding. Lending money, property, labor, skills, and time to relatives in need can lead to stronger bonds and an assurance that they will help you if you ever find yourself in a sticky spot. With family and friends, it is reasonable to be a bit more lenient when it comes to being reimbursed. However, if you do too many favors for free and do not set any boundaries, you may find that even those closest to you will begin taking advantage of your kindness. 

In our story today, a talented woman with baking and sewing skills gets treated like the neighborhood seamstress and pastry chef - worse, actually, because she never got paid - by her in-laws. After months of getting vintage clothes dumped on her lap by her sister-in-law and cake ingredients shoved in her hands by her mother-in-law in order to bake sweets for her every work potluck, our protagonist finally put her foot down. Get the full details of the story down below.
