Today, my dad came over and ordered me, a 43 year-old woman, to purchase a kitchen table. He and my sisters are embarassed that we are still using a plastic folding table. It doesn't matter to them that we have just spent over $30,000 on renovations. His cousins are coming from Italy. FML

there are so many things going on here

If you're gonna spend/care that much about your house, why would you still have a plastic table?

If he wants a new table so badly then he should buy one himself. He could call it a housewarming gift.

Why do you, a 43-year old woman, still live with her father and sisters??

$30,000 on renovations, but you can't afford a simple wood table.

Its simple, tell him to go out and buy you one. Tell him it will be like an early Easter present from him to you. If he says no then he's an asshole.

If he wants you to have a new table for look's sake, he can buy you it. It's your house, not his. Done deal.

You can get a REALLY good table at Salvation Army. I found a wonderful table for only $10, then refurbished it myself. Striped, sanded, stained, and varnished the whole thing myself.

Wasnt there one about a 41 old man about this

Plot twist. Same post just 2 years later. And the part where OP says they are "still using" plastic table sounds like renovations has been a little while. So, wondering why they didn't allocate money to a new table. But I mean it's their life so the dad shouldn't be bothering

Ignore him. If it means so much to him, let him buy the table.
