@kdfrawg actually it's about even more than that. I told them that if I'm going to be investing in an apartment that they'll eventually live in when older (they put down the down payment and I pay the mortgage and the place is in my name which is a pretty good deal for me tbh) then they need to consider things like it being ground floor access or pet friendly because they need to maximise quality of life and accessibility. My mum likes having a cat. My dad went on a rant about how the cat can't be a deciding factor in where they live and muttered something about giving away the cat. So he's now bullied her into thinking she doesn't want a cat either. To be honest if he's going to be this selfish then he doesn't deserve a pet anyway. He was going on about my brother being a burden last night too. @matigo
