I have suicidal thoughts if I can't take a shower daily. It's not right, just not right. How much does it cost to shower once? $1 or less? My water bill per month is only $40 per month. I take a shower, wash dishes and flush toilets 4+ times daily. Freaking $40 only. The kid should just go work at McDonald's 5 hours a month just to pay for a daily shower.

it's kind of interesting seeing how she is/ has been starting to recognize her mother as an obstacle rather than a caregiver.

Notice how all of these "savers" seem to have families, 2 floor HOUSES, and generally nice things. These are all bored upper middle-class wives and husbands, with nothing better to do, but "save" money not because they need to but because they're making up for some self-perceived inadequacy.
I don’t think I’ve seen such a petty vacationer. Whenever I or one of my siblings travels with a friend, my parents insist that the friend doesn’t have to pay a penny... *BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT BEING A NICE HOST IS ALL ABOUT*
Your parents must be rich or something. I don't agree with the cheapskate in this video at all, but I agree that the friend's parents should definitely pay for their own child's plane ticket, food, and shopping expense on a vacation. Edit: That's for a vacation, like somewhere out of state for a few days. If it's like a dinner at a restaurant, then it's cool to pay for your child's friend once in a while.
@@sotrue5413 I think they meant like essentials, like a middle class family can take a kids friend in their hotel room and pay for meals, but if they want to go shopping that’s their own choice and own money? Plane ticket would be the kids parents responsibility, unless their family is pretty poor and your family has some money to spend.
Mom: her parents are paying for her right? Also mom: *makes friend wear all clothes through airport regardless of the fact that she wasnt a financial factor anyways*
@@jazminyz What I wanna know is how is $300 a year worth making your kids social life worse? If anything this'll get the kids to stash their own money and save up with a part time job so they can gtfo the moment they're able to.
I feel like if I went to school with her, I'd invite her to my house so she & her siblings could shower regularly. I'd just feel horrible that they have to deal with their mom.
Yo if that was my friend I would tell her she can come to my house whenever she want to take a shower 💁🏽♀️because that’s just not fair her mother is doing that to her
atomicpuffin moms who take other kids under their wings like that are seriously angels. this is how my mom was when I was going through school. She kept extra pads and tampons, practically in bulk supply for anybody who needed to take a few too. Reflecting back, I really appreciate it all the more.
@@plaidplatapus Mine was a super mom too. Basically raised my best friend for 14 years. Kept doing it for other friends she knew I actually cared about and anyone I dated. As soon as I introduced my current boyfriend, first thing she says is "Hes so cute! When is he coming to see us?" Like a switch flipped. She's amazing~
SlyDogs 820 🤢🤮😭 that would be atrocious and not hygienic or safe. That could possibly cause someone to have post traumatic stress from experiencing that💩,just the mention of that is nightmare material.🤮 nasty
If I was the daughter, I would find a part-time job, save money and then grab my friend and just go have the best holidays ever. Take a lot of pictures and videos and send it to mom! 😝
@@sklauda1 I bet this mom is the kinda person who restricts the hell outta her kid and then as soon as that kid gets a job, mom goes "You need to start paying some of that for all the food and clothes I've given you since you were born!"
As soon as either of those kids gets a job, mom is probably going to take most of the money they earn and if they DO get to keep any of it, she’s going to micro manage exactly how they use it. Poor kids are going to have to go no contact ASAP for any hope at a healthy normal life and relationships with others. Just sad and abusive behavior from a typical narcissist.
Listen... my mom has a co worker who is THE EXACT SAME WAY. Then she puts her name on the Angel tree at work and asks for gifts for her 6 heathen kids.
@@AFarmerCalledChicken Sounds like a familiar story. I worked with a girl at the hospital who would steal tampons, and guilt people into lending her money to buy gifts for her kids.
Or go every 2 years and actually enjoy the vacation and not penny pinch 🤷♀️ To me being that obsessive and restrictive while on vacation just defeats the purpose of going in the first place.
A friend paying for their own ticket is a tough topic when you're still in school, it really depends on where each family is at. If you know your friends family isn't well off and can't pay for a lot you better not be the asshole to invite them and ask them to pay
@@mentalpopcorn2304 understandable. Although if her parents gave her money. She should have enough. I'm sure her parents knew where they would be going. Honestly without her parents saying how much they actually sent. We won't know.
@@GeoJessie 5 minutes showers daily or even every other day. Will save them money. It also lowers the risk for the females, getting a severe infection down stairs.
I think the friend didnt buy her own go cart ticket because she felt bad that her friend would have to split the rides with her batshit mom. And if I were the friend I wouldn't want to ride around in go carts with her mom...
I'd probably do the same but it'd depend on if I got any siblings as well though, since I would want to help them get out n life a ... heck normal life atleast.
I don't understand what these types of people hope to achieve. "Look at me, I live like a weirdo and deprive my children, but I saved $75 this year!" What is the saved money going towards?
So I thought she was insane but a quick google search came up with this: “the astringency of tea actually cuts through grease and dust, plus it also adds a shine to hardwood floors and furniture.” I wouldn’t do it and it would be so diluted by the time it got to the floor I’m not sure it would do the same thing.
Exactly. I doubt it works well when she's leeched ever bit of tea out of those things already. Then soaked them in dirty dish water. Slathered in old food grease. Boiled to hell and back. You might as well just pour hot water on your floor and call it a day at that point!
By the time it got to the floor though the tea bag would literally be absorbed with grease and old food, it definitely would just be like pouring dirty dish water onto your floor
She's not washing her floors with t it's with dirty dishwater and grease. Yuck! If she was using pure tea that's one thing but she's milked that tea bag for all it had before she boiled it.
im a bioengineering student, and believe it or not we use tea in the lab sometimes for practicing extractions, and for practicing detecting processes, which is why I know that using the tea leaves themselves, like she does, is not effective for anything but staining. the "shine" she thinks that she's seeing are actually the flavanols in the tea leaves staining her floors brown. she's literally making her floors darker in color, instead of picking up dirt and lightening them. because she's using water that's full of nasty loose tea leaves and pouring that all over the floor, she's just making a mess. additionally, caffeinated drinks full of additives will often oxidize to get sticky, so... I wouldn't recommend using tea, especially lipton tea since it's cheap and full of additives, on any surface. a bottle of cleaner, formulated by someone with a chemical engineering degree, can be purchased for a dollar at the dollar store a few times a year for the exact same cost as one box of tea. this woman is just mentally ill and has no desire to get help. I hope her children stay away from her as adults and live happy, normal lives.
One of my favorite “vacations” ever - My husband and I had a four day weekend and decided to make the most of it. We camped out in our living room, we brought the guest mattress in, essentially built a cozy fort and watched movies and played games for our long weekend. 100% free and wonderful memories made ❤️
it would be hard for a guy to live in a house full of smelly people. id be out in a day saying " let me know when you all shower regularly and you aren't abusing your kids and you might hear back from me. also, I'm calling child services on your smelly ass"
Just two 10 min showers a week? I feel like, if they MUST have 20 mins a week, they could take 4 5-min showers. Just turn off the water when you lather up. Like if you're gonna pinch penny, don't be dumb pinchin that penny.
They probably clean up in between showers with wet wipes or something like that. At least I'm hoping it's really not so serious as to call children services they're obviously being provided for but that's just my opinion 🤷
@@atmywhitson Controlling someone's hygiene is abusive af in my opinion. Imagine being a sweaty teenager or getting your period and having to ask to be able to shower. Like the heck. What she gonna do if they shower without permission? It's not right.
@Nathaniel Shrock Nah this is actually real there are parents out there who did this I had neighbors like this,limited shower time to cut down on water usage for the bill
My uncle once tried to get a hotdog cheaper, they ended up just give him the hotdog for free just to get rid of him 🤣 But in his defense, he was drunk xD
I feel so bad for this young girl. As someone who has family members who love being embarrassing in public I felt her pain completely. The amount of times my family has "went out for dinner" and my dad and his girlfriend have decided were only getting two sides to share between 7 people it gets me every time and I want to shrink away out of sight of the waitress. If I was this girls friend i'd be taking some of the money my parents gave me for the holiday, buying some snacks at the fair and telling the mum were away to look around and just spend the day together as friends.
Probably lived a rich lifestyle when she was married, a lot of women do this after they're divorced. It typically doesn't go to this extent ...of not letting your teenage daughter shower when she's on her period but twice a week. It's totally abuse
The other daughter left and couldn't handle her mom. This women is lucky she doesn't have me as her teenage daughter. I would've taken a shower even if she said no.
That's how you know shes being conditioned to follow her moms instructions. She doesnt want to disappoint (for now, until she realizes its bullshit). Its the only sense of security she has. One day she will break free
I like to imagine all of the kids from these situations growing up to use money effectively instead of aiming to save every cent just because they technically can
The way the mom ruins a vacation for her kid and the friend... If I were the friend I’d be pretty upset at my friend for taking me on this trip. If I were the daughter I’d probably never forgive my mom for it. If the mom knew she was just gonna ruin it, why even let the trip happen?
My step mom used to time mine and my brothers showers, we would just sneak in showers while she was at work anyways, take extra long ones. It has been ten years since I moved out of her house, I can still be in and out of the shower in about 5 minutes
Black tea has been used to mop quite a few hardwood floors throughout its history. The tannic acid in the tea cleans and adds shine to a dull old hardwood floor
I used to work for the TSA and I can honestly tell you... so much food came through luggage. People were bringing coolers of food. Tote bags of food. I recall seeing a whole deer shoulder and a thing of ribs going through precheck. It's honestly wild what people bring through.
There’s no way I’d listen to my mum if she told me I could only have two showers a week. I’d be taking the longest showers in the history of long showers.
I'm seeing a few red flags here 1: if they can only shower twice a week, why don't her co-workers call her out for her odor? 2: isn't it illegal to bring food on a flight? 3: how does keeping old milk cartons for storage save money?
It is illegal to bring food on a plane unless you bought it at the airport. Anything bought outside the airport you have to toss before going through TSA.
@@user-qp9pu1xi4k It's liquids over 3 something oz. that cannot go through TSA. I've brought snacks from home on to the plane before with no issues at all.
@@user-qp9pu1xi4k nah dude, you can bring food on a plane. In fact, as long as it is frozen solid when you go through security, you can even bring ice cream! I have literally NO idea why you would want to, but you can!
@@user-qp9pu1xi4k you can bring food on flights, though some foods aren't allowed. These foods are usually invasive species or can contain invasive species like bugs.
1: maybe they do 🤷♀️ or it’s just fake/exaggerated lmao 2: like everyone else said, as long as it’s not liquid, paste or gel-like, you can take solid food on planes 3: not needing to buy storage bins? but the things come in their own packages??? fake? idk wtf
This is actually really sad. It’s an obsession based off ego and an illness. They torture their children instead of getting help. I know it’s dramatized but I’m hoping it’s just fully staged :/
That was soooooooooooooooooo bad! Mom needs to invest in counseling next for the kids ! They are going to need it from being this traumatized! SMH 🤦♀️
Right. Borderline child abuse with the shower limitations. You get more showers than that at a homeless shelter or living on the streets when the ‘wash and care’ van rolls around.
I would let this girl shower at my house. Also, if the mom wants to be cheap she doesn't get to ride the go carts. Then each girl could get an extra lap. This is just extreme selfishness!!!
To take away from them!.. the friend should have had her own cart since her parents had to pay for her but this narcissist Bihh pocket the money and fwked up these girls vacation.. which she probably do faithful ever vacation they go on, which is why the oldest didn't wanna go..
You know there's really no point in saving money when you aren't going to use that money you've saved, especially on a freaking vacation. That part was easily the worst part. 😁

Supposed to be 2-3 a week, per health professionals. Lets your skin and hair recover naturally before your strip them of dirt and grease/natural oil in the shower.

I don’t think I’ve seen such a petty vacationer. Whenever I or one of my siblings travels with a friend, my parents insist that the friend doesn’t have to pay a penny... *BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT BEING A NICE HOST IS ALL ABOUT*
Your parents must be rich or something. I don't agree with the cheapskate in this video at all, but I agree that the friend's parents should definitely pay for their own child's plane ticket, food, and shopping expense on a vacation.
Edit: That's for a vacation, like somewhere out of state for a few days. If it's like a dinner at a restaurant, then it's cool to pay for your child's friend once in a while.
@@sotrue5413 I think they meant like essentials, like a middle class family can take a kids friend in their hotel room and pay for meals, but if they want to go shopping that’s their own choice and own money? Plane ticket would be the kids parents responsibility, unless their family is pretty poor and your family has some money to spend.
Mom: her parents are paying for her right?
Also mom: *makes friend wear all clothes through airport regardless of the fact that she wasnt a financial factor anyways*
That’s not true! Mom had to pack extra sandwiches. 🙄
@@eileensnow6153 yup, had to use friend's luggage as an opportunity for more space/food.

By making her daughter collect trash at school potentially ruining her social life she saves a grand total of $25 a month. Shes my hero
She said a year not a month
@@trishjensen9558 they said $300 a year. 12 months in a year so divide 300 by 12 and you get ?
Honestly tho how is it even 300 a year a lot of the stuff she puts in the cartons can just be stored in the original package
@@jazminyz What I wanna know is how is $300 a year worth making your kids social life worse? If anything this'll get the kids to stash their own money and save up with a part time job so they can gtfo the moment they're able to.
@@dnw009 The poor child gets 2 showers per week NO MATTER WHAT! I'd be surprised if she wasn't bullied for smelling bad. :(
I feel like if I went to school with her, I'd invite her to my house so she & her siblings could shower regularly. I'd just feel horrible that they have to deal with their mom.
That's if she felt comfortable enough to talk about it. She seems pretty reserved and nervous. Idk if she'd reach out
@@msjkramey True not to mention I'm a dude & it'd make me seem like a perv.
that's very thoughtful of you
I can only imagine the conversation that happened when the bestfriend got home & her parents asked _”how was your trip?”_
I'm sure the oldest daughter "couldn't" join them because she had already been driven insane by her mother's antics.
Yo if that was my friend I would tell her she can come to my house whenever she want to take a shower 💁🏽♀️because that’s just not fair her mother is doing that to her
I would practically adopt the child if my kids had a friend like that
atomicpuffin moms who take other kids under their wings like that are seriously angels. this is how my mom was when I was going through school. She kept extra pads and tampons, practically in bulk supply for anybody who needed to take a few too. Reflecting back, I really appreciate it all the more.
@@plaidplatapus Mine was a super mom too.
Basically raised my best friend for 14 years. Kept doing it for other friends she knew I actually cared about and anyone I dated.
As soon as I introduced my current boyfriend, first thing she says is "Hes so cute! When is he coming to see us?" Like a switch flipped. She's amazing~
@Cecilia Colley Do you think the mother makes her reuse tampons???
SlyDogs 820 🤢🤮😭 that would be atrocious and not hygienic or safe. That could possibly cause someone to have post traumatic stress from experiencing that💩,just the mention of that is nightmare material.🤮 nasty
Going on vacation with her would make me wanna die
She orders they go to a milk factory.
Then she robs it of all its cartons lol.
I'd easily turn down a vacation if she's hosting.
Same
If I was the daughter, I would find a part-time job, save money and then grab my friend and just go have the best holidays ever. Take a lot of pictures and videos and send it to mom! 😝
She probably wouldn't let her go
@@sklauda1 I bet this mom is the kinda person who restricts the hell outta her kid and then as soon as that kid gets a job, mom goes "You need to start paying some of that for all the food and clothes I've given you since you were born!"
@@aj7789
Which honestly wouldn't take very long to pay off anyway since she probably finds every opportunity not to buy stuff for her, right?
As soon as either of those kids gets a job, mom is probably going to take most of the money they earn and if they DO get to keep any of it, she’s going to micro manage exactly how they use it.
Poor kids are going to have to go no contact ASAP for any hope at a healthy normal life and relationships with others. Just sad and abusive behavior from a typical narcissist.
Ken is like my online dad in the most wholesome way.
"With your own money"
THAT will be the most worst Karma in the future the girl got a job and success
If they're that in need of money, why not just not go on vacation every year
They have the money, she just doesn't want to spend it.
Listen... my mom has a co worker who is THE EXACT SAME WAY. Then she puts her name on the Angel tree at work and asks for gifts for her 6 heathen kids.
@@AFarmerCalledChicken Sounds like a familiar story. I worked with a girl at the hospital who would steal tampons, and guilt people into lending her money to buy gifts for her kids.
Or go every 2 years and actually enjoy the vacation and not penny pinch 🤷♀️ To me being that obsessive and restrictive while on vacation just defeats the purpose of going in the first place.
Honestly it’s not even a vacation at that point anyways so they really shouldn’t bother
Two showers a week? What the hell. A teenager smells with showers. I agree why didnt the friend paly for her own ticket.
A friend paying for their own ticket is a tough topic when you're still in school, it really depends on where each family is at. If you know your friends family isn't well off and can't pay for a lot you better not be the asshole to invite them and ask them to pay
It's cheaper for them to shower more than 2 days with less than 10 minutes !
@@mentalpopcorn2304 understandable. Although if her parents gave her money. She should have enough. I'm sure her parents knew where they would be going. Honestly without her parents saying how much they actually sent. We won't know.
@@GeoJessie 5 minutes showers daily or even every other day. Will save them money. It also lowers the risk for the females, getting a severe infection down stairs.
I think the friend didnt buy her own go cart ticket because she felt bad that her friend would have to split the rides with her batshit mom. And if I were the friend I wouldn't want to ride around in go carts with her mom...
A cheapskate....in a vacation....in....vegas.........read that again.....let that sink in.
Barely any reason to even go to Vegas as a kid, there's way more fun places that are way cheaper lol
I just wonder where they slept. At the YWCA?
This family will just let it “stink” in
I'd questioned it before I'd even processed it in my mind.
If I grew up with a parent this cheap I'd probably never call them again after moving out. Any expectation of child-parent relationship would be gone.
I'd probably do the same but it'd depend on if I got any siblings as well though, since I would want to help them get out n life a ... heck normal life atleast.
Im glad that girl was able to make friends despite all the weird stuff stuff her mom has made her do growing up
As a victim of bad parenting, I feel bad for the kids.
I don't understand what these types of people hope to achieve.
"Look at me, I live like a weirdo and deprive my children, but I saved $75 this year!"
What is the saved money going towards?
It goes towards.. saving more.. money.....
This woman probably thinks she's so smart for this when she's the exact opposite.
@TheFemBIZ yeah, the retirement where her kids don't visit her.
They're more stingy than Mr. Crabs.
Crack
So I thought she was insane but a quick google search came up with this: “the astringency of tea actually cuts through grease and dust, plus it also adds a shine to hardwood floors and furniture.”
I wouldn’t do it and it would be so diluted by the time it got to the floor I’m not sure it would do the same thing.
Exactly. I doubt it works well when she's leeched ever bit of tea out of those things already.
Then soaked them in dirty dish water. Slathered in old food grease. Boiled to hell and back.
You might as well just pour hot water on your floor and call it a day at that point!
@@CazadorSlayer This just in; local Florida Mom causes liver failure in her children.
By the time it got to the floor though the tea bag would literally be absorbed with grease and old food, it definitely would just be like pouring dirty dish water onto your floor
She's not washing her floors with t it's with dirty dishwater and grease. Yuck! If she was using pure tea that's one thing but she's milked that tea bag for all it had before she boiled it.
im a bioengineering student, and believe it or not we use tea in the lab sometimes for practicing extractions, and for practicing detecting processes, which is why I know that using the tea leaves themselves, like she does, is not effective for anything but staining. the "shine" she thinks that she's seeing are actually the flavanols in the tea leaves staining her floors brown. she's literally making her floors darker in color, instead of picking up dirt and lightening them. because she's using water that's full of nasty loose tea leaves and pouring that all over the floor, she's just making a mess. additionally, caffeinated drinks full of additives will often oxidize to get sticky, so... I wouldn't recommend using tea, especially lipton tea since it's cheap and full of additives, on any surface. a bottle of cleaner, formulated by someone with a chemical engineering degree, can be purchased for a dollar at the dollar store a few times a year for the exact same cost as one box of tea. this woman is just mentally ill and has no desire to get help. I hope her children stay away from her as adults and live happy, normal lives.
That girl's friend is pretty cool for agreeing to this.
One of my favorite “vacations” ever - My husband and I had a four day weekend and decided to make the most of it. We camped out in our living room, we brought the guest mattress in, essentially built a cozy fort and watched movies and played games for our long weekend. 100% free and wonderful memories made ❤️
Hell I would have stayed home with my friend instead of taking her on a frustration vacation
Just pull out a couple of consoles, way more fun
Gee, I wonder why she has no husband.
Too expensive.
it would be hard for a guy to live in a house full of smelly people. id be out in a day saying " let me know when you all shower regularly and you aren't abusing your kids and you might hear back from me. also, I'm calling child services on your smelly ass"
She sold him
"We were on a BUDGET!!!" Death stares in mom's direction.
@Tayce Sells That’s actually not true, you can get special tax write offs for filing jointly with a spouse.
I give it like one more trip before that daughter just starts paying her own way
I think the real reason she saves money on vacations is bc no one wants to go on one with her.
You think one trip isn't bad enough? 😂
I wonder how many people called CPS on that woman. Definitely someone had to
Just two 10 min showers a week? I feel like, if they MUST have 20 mins a week, they could take 4 5-min showers. Just turn off the water when you lather up. Like if you're gonna pinch penny, don't be dumb pinchin that penny.
Literally grounds to call child services she isn’t providing basic hygiene and she’d be better off
They probably clean up in between showers with wet wipes or something like that. At least I'm hoping it's really not so serious as to call children services they're obviously being provided for but that's just my opinion 🤷
@@atmywhitson Controlling someone's hygiene is abusive af in my opinion. Imagine being a sweaty teenager or getting your period and having to ask to be able to shower. Like the heck. What she gonna do if they shower without permission? It's not right.
@@martipotato431 Probably deprive them of showers for a month or something and then brag about how much money she saved.
@Nathaniel Shrock Nah this is actually real there are parents out there who did this I had neighbors like this,limited shower time to cut down on water usage for the bill
IM CALLING CPS!!!! These aren’t people living in poverty. They are upper middle class!!!

I feel so bad for this young girl. As someone who has family members who love being embarrassing in public I felt her pain completely. The amount of times my family has "went out for dinner" and my dad and his girlfriend have decided were only getting two sides to share between 7 people it gets me every time and I want to shrink away out of sight of the waitress. If I was this girls friend i'd be taking some of the money my parents gave me for the holiday, buying some snacks at the fair and telling the mum were away to look around and just spend the day together as friends.
How the heck was she spending $75 a year on floor polish??? 😂
IKR! I buy one bottle of floor polish for a year which costs like 20 dollars.
This show just loves to exaggerate how much these people are supposedly saving. And I love the fact that Ken points it out.
lmao right? still using a huge bucket of pinesol from like 1 year ago...
Probably lived a rich lifestyle when she was married, a lot of women do this after they're divorced. It typically doesn't go to this extent ...of not letting your teenage daughter shower when she's on her period but twice a week. It's totally abuse
Yes exactly. And on what exactly she saves that 300$ on. By saving those milk cartons
"Cut your holiday expenses and family in half"
Dr Phil: *Sharpening knife hands* Oh I'll cut the family alright, especially the mother.
How about _only_ the mother and we have a deal? 👍
The Couch is easily a top 5 TH-cam sensation.
What if they made this a TH-cam original?
If the daughter ever gets a job, her mom will just steal her money
And treat her daughter like trash if she won't give her money
Her friend went with her because she literally couldn’t believe how cheap she said her mom was. “It’s an adventure” she sure did learn
If she really wanted to save money, she wouldn't have had kids. This is, like the one comment said, control issues, OCD, or the narcissism spectrum.
You know what else saves money on vacations?........

The other daughter left and couldn't handle her mom. This women is lucky she doesn't have me as her teenage daughter. I would've taken a shower even if she said no.

That's how you know shes being conditioned to follow her moms instructions. She doesnt want to disappoint (for now, until she realizes its bullshit). Its the only sense of security she has. One day she will break free
A young person, during puberty as well not being allowed to shower when they want. Wow. Such a great mom.
I like to imagine all of the kids from these situations growing up to use money effectively instead of aiming to save every cent just because they technically can
I'm afraid they’ll spend every single penny as soon as they get money to make up for everything they missed out on…
Money’s sole purpose is to be spent to acquire something of equal value.
Didn’t sound like a very fun trip you need to spend money on vacation.
Kellie Jimenez if the mom is saving so much money she should be able to afford more on vacation that’s the time when it’s okay to go a little over

If I were the friend I’d be pretty upset at my friend for taking me on this trip. If I were the daughter I’d probably never forgive my mom for it. If the mom knew she was just gonna ruin it, why even let the trip happen?
My step mom used to time mine and my brothers showers, we would just sneak in showers while she was at work anyways, take extra long ones. It has been ten years since I moved out of her house, I can still be in and out of the shower in about 5 minutes

I used to work for the TSA and I can honestly tell you... so much food came through luggage. People were bringing coolers of food. Tote bags of food. I recall seeing a whole deer shoulder and a thing of ribs going through precheck. It's honestly wild what people bring through.
There’s no way I’d listen to my mum if she told me I could only have two showers a week. I’d be taking the longest showers in the history of long showers.

2: isn't it illegal to bring food on a flight?

It is illegal to bring food on a plane unless you bought it at the airport. Anything bought outside the airport you have to toss before going through TSA.

I'm sorry I laughed a lot but this family made me so incredibly angry.
Yeah, the mom is an idiot, I'm pissed too
Right. Borderline child abuse with the shower limitations. You get more showers than that at a homeless shelter or living on the streets when the ‘wash and care’ van rolls around.
You take that apology back right now.
there's cheap and then there's being a bad mother...
I would let this girl shower at my house. Also, if the mom wants to be cheap she doesn't get to ride the go carts. Then each girl could get an extra lap. This is just extreme selfishness!!!
Why did the mom have to go on the go cart if she was gonna be so cheap and make the kids share it? She could just watched so theyd get extra turns
To take away from them!.. the friend should have had her own cart since her parents had to pay for her but this narcissist Bihh pocket the money and fwked up these girls vacation.. which she probably do faithful ever vacation they go on, which is why the oldest didn't wanna go..
Gahhhh I feel so bad for this girl I’m glad she has at least one friend
