She tweeted,

 “I think it’s actually rude for you to meet your partners mum for the first time and she expects you to help her in the kitchen like ma, im a guest?”

However, certain things you don’t need to be told, it’s just courtesy.
We can choose not go greet anyone “Good morning” forever, it’s not statutory, rather it’s just courtesy owing to the norms, traditions and values we’re born into.”

@mahe2sweet wrote, “Sometimes she could be showing you acceptance, in her own way. She is treating you the way she treats other female children. It’s love, it’s not an expectation of servitude”

@dapistokyo wrote, “This is a form of bonding and to see your kitchen etiquette. Many women will fail this test. You’re trying to prove to his mother your wife material. You’re suppose to be trying to impress his mother, not come over for a free meal.”
