34-year-old refuses to let 68-year-old dad move in after he repeatedly insults daughter-in-law over dinner: 'He said he was being honest'

While there are plenty of exceptions, many of us assume that when we fall on hard times, our family will be there to support us. These circumstances may not be ideal, but they can be just the thing that somebody needs to be helped back on their feet. It is also a common scenario in families, especially when it comes to parents helping out their kids. The reverse doesn't always happen as often, but it can prove just as vital.

Whoever may be looking out for that lifeline, a key part of the process is showing some gratitude for what is being offered (so long as the hosts are deserving of it). This is where the arrangement can begin to get complicated, as people start overstepping boundaries and acting in ways that those they depend on find unacceptable. As the old saying goes, it isn't wise to bite the hand that feeds you.
