I Can Imagine This Scenario,

being played out in a number of homes,


photograph Erik McClean/UnsplashChristian Uriel, a 30-year-old man in Mexico moved in with his mother after loosing his job, Christian’s mother explained that he had come to live with her at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, She was happy to help him, but after four months of him just sitting on the couch and playing video games all day, her maternal instinct started to whither, to make matters worse, the 30-year-old man didn’t help with anything and expected everything to be served to him, as Mexico started recovering after the lockdown and businesses started re-opening, the woman asked her son to look for a job, so he could contribute to the family budget, but he completely ignored her and continued on as a couch potato, what to do? his mother admitted that in an act of desperation she called her sister and together they threw Christian out of the house, pouring water on him and hitting him with brooms, Mexican newspaper El Comercio reported that Christian Uriel complained that he was offended that his mother threw him out and by the way she did it and that’s why he filed a complaint against her, yes that is correct, he allegedly reported his own mother to the authorities for kicking him out of the house, last Wednesday, Mexican media reported that the  30-year-old man denounced his own mother and aunt to the before the Mexican Prosecutor’s Office, accusing them of assault and harassments, the court has yet to make a ruling in this case, it is only a guess, but as some counties start to come out of lockdown, I can see this happening to a few other households, or maybe I am wrong?
