As I was waiting in line the woman ahead of me allowed me to go ahead of her because she had a cart full of stuff and was courteous enough to let me go ahead of her.
Well, as we both were still waiting in line (the line was long) this 50ish old lady starts asking me if I was married or had kids just for small talk which did not bother me as I was dressed up and smelling good and so forth.
The conversation then changed and she started talking about her 30ish year old son.
Turns out her sons life is in a mess all due to a WOMAN.
As the story goes she told me her son got married and had 2 kids with this woman. She then said things went to hell when her daughter in-law out of the blue left her son for a 50 year old psychologist and moved in with him.
The daughter in law then went on to file for divorce and accuse her son sexual assault against his own girls. She said her son now lost his house and now had to move back in with her.
She also said because of all the legal situations going on he is unable to find employment even with his masters degree because a background check uncovers all the pending legal situations going on.
And to add insult to injury, she said she had to use 30k of her own money to help hire lawyers to fight all this.
What hit it home for me was how she said her son sits at home sometimes and cries because all he wants is to have his family back together again.
