Buying a house these days isn't just a typical milestone, it's a miracle. With skyrocketing prices and endless competition, finally getting your own place feels like winning a marathon. For one hardworking guy, that dream became reality after years of saving, plus a helpful (but supposedly unconditional) down payment gift from his parents. Finally, he had his own space, and the excitement of a place to call his own was unmatched.
Fast forward several months later, his parents were faced with unexpected financial struggles and expected that they could just move in. Since, after all, it was "about time he paid them back" for their so-called gift. Imagine the frustration of having to share your first real home with your parents after finally reaching that hard-earned independence. And while he's ready to lend a hand, moving them in indefinitely wasn't exactly part of the deal. See how he stood his ground.
