‘If Cheri wants to continue this toddler-like temper tantrum, she is welcome to stay home alone on Thanksgiving’: Grandmother refuses to take down family photos for her son’s new wife, who throws jealousy-fueled ultimatums

Insecurity is one thing most people just power through quietly, but when it starts demanding control over how someone else decorates their own living room, maybe it is time for a serious gut check. Grandmother has a house stacked with pictures. Hundreds of them. Kids, grandkids, random family trips, the works. Five of those photos include Helena, the ex, and only because she is the mother of the four-year-old grandson. Not glamor shots, not framed memories of their relationship, just normal family photos where she exists in the background of her own kid's life.

Now the new wife, Cheri, is apparently discovering what it means to marry someone with a child. Spoiler alert, that child has a mother, and she tends to show up in old pictures. Instead of processing that with grace or, wild idea, a therapist, Cheri decides to make it everyone else's problem. The son shows up asking his mom to take down every photo where Helena appears, otherwise, Cheri will not come over. Five photos out of a couple of hundred, and somehow this turns into a dealbreaker. The real kicker is that Cheri is not just avoiding the pictures. She is now treating Tommy differently, making herself scarce around him, throwing fits when he mentions seeing a picture at Grandma's house.
