Couple Renovates Ungrateful Mother-in-Law's Home and Builds Her a Shed by Hand for Free, She Sells Upgraded House Instead of Moving In

Welcome, internet gossipers. We have all likely gone above-and-beyond before for a loved one without expecting anything in return. Perhaps you paid for a good chunk of your child's wedding, made yourself available at the drop of a hat for your sister if she needed last-minute, free babysitting, or used your artistic talents to paint a pet portrait for your cat-obsessed relative free of charge. Sometimes it feels good to do something kind for a family member with no strings attached, but the wholesome philanthropic vibes can quickly curdle when occasional favors become expected behaviors met without so much as a "thank you."

In our story today, a woman puts a lot of free labor and money into renovating her mother-in-law's new home. She and her husband even build her a shed by hand. In the end, though, the entitled and ungrateful MIL decides to sell the flipped house for a profit instead of moving in herself. Get all the details down below.
