Parents are always extra careful when taking care of their babies. And it's reasonable, especially when the pandemic is running wild in the world. Some don't even let their family see their baby for quite some time due to the fear of the pandemic. Or, here, some can do like this mom. She makes up rules for their family before they can see her baby. As she shared: "to keep the visits minimum and no one can complain about favoritism."
As reasonable as they might sound, her rules went ridiculous pretty quick. Requiring every visitor to get vaccinated is necessary. But what do you think about the part when she expected first-time visitors to bring gift cards for her and her newborn, not to mention doing chores for her? And even when her sister-in-law (sil) said that she was a broke student and offered to do more chores, this mom and her husband wouldn't relent. What level of entitlement is this?
