AITAH for not moving in with my in-laws
-
Promises in this marriage have the shelf life of milk in the sun. The husband, dazzled by nostalgia and the promise of an easy ride at the family restaurant, spins Maine as a haven where parental control is a lifestyle perk. The second child becomes a bargaining chip, with conditions set for job security, location stability, and a permanent end to relocation fantasies. Agreements are made with the enthusiasm of a handshake at a rigged carnival game.
Reality crashes in thirteen weeks into pregnancy, when the husband announces the move as a done deal and reacts to pushback with a tantrum that leaves doors broken and baby gear in the trash. The police arrive to find a scene straight out of a cautionary tale, confirming that sometimes the only escape from dysfunction is through the front door, custody paperwork in hand.

Las Vegas woman refuses her husband’s demand to move her family into her in-laws' chaotic Maine home: ‘Of the 4 bedrooms in the house, each bedroom has been filled with clutter to the point of them sleeping in their living room instead’
While some families extend invitations, these in-laws prefer to issue ultimatums. This Maine household features a father-in-law with a long memory for grudges and an even longer record at the liquor store, a mother-in-law whose passion for clutter has turned every bedroom into a storage unit, and a home where the only thing more suffocating than the mess is the atmosphere. Moving in is less about joining a family and more about signing up for a social experiment in endurance.
