When my son tied the knot, I extended an invitation to him and his spouse to reside with me, considering my home’s ample space and my solitary occupancy. Initially, my daughter-in-law, Meredith, was elated by the prospect.
Yet, after four years and the arrival of three children, Meredith deems the household “overcrowded” and wishes for my departure.

Furthermore, with another bundle of joy on the horizon, they’ve decided to repurpose my room for the newest addition. Meredith has organized for me to relocate to a cozy studio apartment nearby, generously offering to handle the rent.
When I rebuffed the notion of vacating my home, my son disclosed, “We’ve been quietly feeling uneasy, Mom, as we haven’t had the privacy necessary for a new couple.”

Holding firm, I reiterated my tenure of 43 years in the house and my unwillingness to depart. However, my son asserted, “If you don’t relocate now, Mom, then we will, and you’ll be separated from your grandchildren.”
I’m devastated, feeling like my heart has been crushed and my reality shattered. What should I do?
