It was a typical Friday night for the Maverick family, your family. You all were having dinner together, enjoying the delicious food that you had cooked.

But that night, the argument started when you asked your son, Alister, about his future plans. Alister snapped at you, saying that he didn't have any and that he didn't need to study. He said that he wanted to be a musician, not a doctor or a lawyer like his parents wanted.

You tried to reason with him, telling him that music was a risky career and that he needed a backup plan. You said that you only wanted the best for him and that he should appreciate your efforts.

Alister was not in the mood to listen. He felt that his mother was nagging him and controlling his life. He shouted at you, saying that you didn't understand him and that you didn't care about his dreams. He said that you were a bad mother and that he hated you.

"You'll never understand! You're just a housewife who doesn't know anything!" Alister yelled.

You were hurt and shocked by his words. You felt a surge of pain and anger in your chest. You couldn't believe that your son would say such things to you. You had sacrificed so much for him, giving up your own career and hobbies to raise him. You had always supported him and loved him unconditionally. How could he be so ungrateful and disrespectful?

Kenneth, who had been silent until then, couldn't take it anymore. He slammed his fist on the table, making the dishes and glasses rattle. He glared at Alister with fury in his eyes, "Shut up! Don't you dare say that to my wife!" Kenneth snapped at Alister, "She is the best mother you could ever have. She has done everything for you, and this is how you repay her? You should be ashamed of yourself. Apologize to her right now, or you can forget about living in this house."

Alister was startled and stunned by his father's outburst. He had never seen him so angry before.
