A Teenage Girl Fought With Her Cousin About Being Adopted, But Did She Say the Wrong Thing?

Things can get pretty ugly during the heat of the moment, right?

We all say things we regret sometimes, but this teenage girl thinks she might have gone a little bit too far during an argument with her cousin.

Let’s see what she had to say on Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page.

AITA for telling my cousin “at least I know my parents wanted me” when she kept making comments about me not being family

“Some backstory- I (f17) was adopted when I was 3 months old.

My cousin (17f) is my grandparents only bio grandchild but she seems to be the only one that cares about that. She doesn’t like me because I got a full scholarship to a performing arts school and she didn’t get accepted and when my grandpa gave us his cars I got the “better” one.

We had a family dinner last week and my grandparents asked about my bf. My grandma jokingly asked when we’re getting married because she wants a great grandchild. I laughed and said it’ll be a while and my cousin cut in and said “they probably want a REAL great grandchild anyway”. I brushed it off and kept talking to my grandma.

When we were about to have dessert my grandpa realized he forgot to get ice cream asked me to drive into town and buy some. My cousin made another comment about how she’s the only real family member so she should’ve gotten the “good car”.

My grandpa told her to shut up and that I got the new car because I help them out and come to visit them almost every day and she doesn’t.

After dessert my grandpa said we should take my sister (14) to the backyard and teach her how to drive the golf cart. I agreed and told her I was driving that thing into town to run errands all the time when I was her age. My grandpa then told her maybe if she likes driving it he’ll give it to her.

My cousin lost it. She started screeching that it’s not fair that we get everything and we’re not even their real family. That p*ssed me off because she said it in front of my youngest sister (4) and made her cry so I snapped at her and said “at least we know our family wanted us”. Cousin screamed and stormed off and my sisters got more ice cream.

My grandparents think that was hilarious and I was totally in the right. My dad also thinks I’m in the right but my mom thinks that was mean and I should apologize so I wanted to know if I was the *sshole?”

And here’s how folks responded.

This person said that the cousin had it coming and you can only be disrespectful to people for so long before you get a taste of your own medicine.

Another reader commended the girl for sticking up for her family. Bravo!

This reader thinks that what the girl said to her cousin wasn’t mean, it was actually TRUE.

Finally, this person said that maybe she doesn’t get the special treatment from the grandparents because she’s a B-R-A-T. Make sense, right?

Woman Asks if She Was Wrong for Telling Her Sister How Much She Really Hates Her

Sibling rivalry…you think you’ve heard it all before…

But there’s always a new tale to tell with a fresh spin!

And this one comes to us from a woman who had a spat with her sister and told her what she really thinks of her…but now she’s wondering if she went too far.

Let’s take a look at this story from Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page.

AITA for telling my sister she’s the worst thing to ever happen to me and I hate her even if she’s changed/gotten help?

“I (31f) don’t like my sister “Kate” (37f).

She treated me like sh*t as kids and it got worse as we got into middle/high school. Around that time she started drinking/doing drugs. And when she was 17 she ran off to live with her party friends. From then to 22 she only called to ask for money.

At 22 she fell off the earth and we didn’t hear from her until at 25 she came home sobbing, looking strung out. She begged for forgiveness and swore to get clean. We felt bad and took her in. For a year she was better. She got a job and was going to the methadone clinic.

One day mom and I were visiting a family friend 8 hours away and when we got home Kate and all her stuff + anything of value that wasn’t nailed down was gone. My laptop, our jewelry, tvs, dvd players, etc. An hour later grandpa called and said his water was shut off.

We went to check it out and found the cover by the street side water valve open and the meter inside shut off. Luckily we checked inside before turning it back on because all the copper pipes had been stolen. It was obvious Kate robbed us all and skipped town. We called the cops to report it but cest la vie.

A year later our grandpa died, leaving his things to Mom. He also left me some money. Sadly Mom was a wreck the next 4 years before she passed of a heart attack. She left everything but $150 (which she left to Kate) to me. I was destroyed after.

If it weren’t for my friends I don’t know what would have happened to me. During all this Kate only called twice. Once a week after mom died to see if she was left anything (I’ll admit I screamed at her) and once a year later to ask for money (I hung up on her).

She recently Dm’d me and apologized for how she’d acted before/after mom passed. Then she told me she hit rock bottom after our last call and OD’d and died for 3 minutes before being revived.

She said it motivated her to get clean stay clean in the years since. She wrote how she wanted to make things right between us and she didn’t want to lose her last family member.

I understand addiction is terrible and just because you’re an addict it doesn’t make you evil/bad. And they deserve second chances too. But that being said, I hate Kate. I can’t recall a single good memory with her. They’re all bad.

This is where I might be the AH. I wrote her back and told her so. I said I’d send her the money mom left her but I wanted her out of my life and as far as I was concerned I was an only child with no remaining blood family and that she was honestly the worst thing to every happen to me and I wouldn’t p*ss on her if she was on fire. I just said everything I’d bottled up for years.

My friend said I was too harsh and could regret not trying to make amends. I could be wrong, maybe my anger and grief are clouding my judgement. I know people change and maybe I should be giving her another chance.
]
So AITA?”

Here’s how folks responded on Reddit.

This person said that the woman is not wrong here and that she really doesn’t owe her sister anything.

Another reader said that the woman’s sister has done things that will take years to heal…if they ever really heal at all.

This individual said that the woman might never be able to trust her sister after what she’s done and the damage she caused her family.

This Reddit user knows what this situation is like from dealing with her own mother, who she has cut out of her life.

Lastly, this reader said that the woman owes her sister no courtesy whatsoever because of her actions.

What do you think?

Was this woman way over the line?

Or did her sister deserve this kind of treatment?

Person Said People Can’t Be “Woke” if They’re Wrong. Are They an A-hole?

You sure hear the word “woke” thrown around a lot lately.

Which is a good thing because it means people are becoming more aware of people different from themselves and they’re learning to become more accepting.

But is it always a good thing? Especially when people are using it the wrong way?

Let’s take a look at this story from the “Am I the *sshole?” page on Reddit and see what happened…

“AITA for telling my roommate’s GF that she’s not woke if she’s wrong?”

“Husband (28M) & I (25F) are ethnically Chinese from a SEA country living overseas.

We rent a house with SO’s college friend who moved his gf (Anna) in during lockdown & she’s been with us ever since (with landlord’s permission & she pays her share of bills). They’re not Asians, which matters.

Anna was initially nice, but started acting very weirdly a month after she moved in:

Telling SO & I that we can practice our ‘real’ religion (which apparently is Buddhism, not Christianity even though SO & I come from Christian families). She even bought incense (which gives me migraines) & a random Buddha statue. We politely explained to her that we’re not Buddhists, but she continued to insist & promised that she didn’t mind.

Telling SO & I that we can speak our ‘real’ language cause she overheard SO’s family talking to us in a mix of English & Cantonese. I explained to her that I can’t speak Cantonese (SO can) even though I can understand it.

She was, for some reason, really disappointed in me & said that I was throwing my heritage away. Plot twist: my own father is only comfortable speaking English.

Buying raw internal organs for SO & I to cook, even though we don’t eat those. I told her we don’t eat that (not our thing), & she was again disappointed.

She told us she read that there were lots of nice recipes & maybe we haven’t found the right one to remind us of home. SO told her he’s never eaten it ever in his life, & I’ve never liked it. She was really upset, but had to toss it since no one was gonna eat it

Chinese New Year was when things got really really weird. She started ordering ‘decorations’. I wouldn’t mind, but she had ordered hell notes (the ones burned for deceased ancestors). I immediately told her to stop pasting them all over the walls because they were weirding me out.

She ordered banners with SO & my name on it (some bast*rdization of our legal English names) but they were written on white banners (again, for deceased people). I told her to please take it down. She got upset (again), but then ordered kabuki masks. I told her that those masks were not Chinese, & she just snapped. She started yelling at me that I should be helping her & not critiquing what she was doing. I told her:

She never asked.

CNY is not a big deal to me, so I wasn’t planning on decorating but if she had asked, I would have helped

She never asked.

I told her I don’t understand her fixation with us. She said she wanted to surprise me & SO, that we’ve been so ‘colonised’ we’ve forgotten our roots, & that we should be embracing our culture.

I told her it was a nice gesture, but she needs to stop forcing stereotypes down our throats. She could have just asked & she’s not being woke when she’s getting everything wrong.

She burst into tears & brought in her bf. He understood where I was coming from, but thought I could have been nicer. SO stands by me, & now things have been tense, but I’ve been tolerating this for a while now & it was getting on my nerves.”

Hmmmm….let’s see how Reddit users responded.

This reader called the woman a racist, plain and simple.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another Reddit user said that the woman is not only being racist, but is “fetishizing her identities.” Let that one sink in…

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another reader pointed out that the woman is pretty ridiculous on multiple levels.

Photo Credit: Reddit

This person really hit the nail on the head!

Photo Credit: Reddit

Finally, this person said that the woman in the story reminds her of someone from her own life…and that they enforce harmful stereotypes.

Now we want to hear from you.

Was this woman an *sshole in this situation?

A Man Wants To Know If He’s Wrong for Telling His Daughter Why He Wasn’t in Her Life

You hear stories all the time about moms and dads not being in their kids’ lives for one reason or another, but this one is a little bit different.

A father took to Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page to ask if he was wrong for telling his 19-year-old daughter the truth about why he wasn’t in her life while she was growing up.

Let’s take a look.

AITA for telling my daughter the truth about why I wasn’t in her life?

“To start, my ex and I were 19 when she got pregnant. We had recently broke up and she found out a couple weeks later that she was pregnant. She said she planned to get an abortion but only wanted her sister there.

So I was always under the belief that she had aborted. She only contacted me once saying it was done and we didn’t speak again.

Fast forward 19 yrs later, I found out a month ago that was a lie. My ex passed away 3 years ago and my daughter Kara has been living with her uncle.

He was the one to reach out to give me a heads up after she expressed an interest in wanting us to connect. He and I spoke at length because I was feeling some pretty strong emotions like rage for never being told about her.

My ex had backed out of the abortion but didn’t want me involved because we were broken up so decided just not to tell me. But he told me that Kara doesn’t know about that. Apparently I wasn’t ready for fatherhood because we were both young so I bailed.

I couldn’t believe it. Rob (her uncle) told me he knows his sister was wrong for that but promised Kara doesn’t have any negative feelings towards me and my ex never painted me as some villain, just a young guy who knew he couldn’t properly care for her.

He asked me not to tell Kara this when we talk if she asks and because it could hurt the way she saw her mom. I never actually confirmed I would.

Kara messaged me and we’ve been talking. I’ve met her twice and it’s been crazy emotional. Looking at this girl who looks just like me and hurting that we’re just barely getting to know each other

So far our conversations have only been about what her life was like, how my life is, what her wants/future goals are, and getting to know each other.

We met again Tuesday and she finally decided to ask the obvious questions about what made me not be involved. How did I feel, what went through my mind, did I ever think about her,etc.

I had been thinking about what to do but in that moment I just didn’t have it in me to lie so I was honest. That I was told about the abortion, had no idea she even existed until now, but that I still really want to be in her life and have the chance to be her father if she wants that. Kara was a bit emotional, we talked some more, and said she still wants me involved.

That night my messages were blowing up. Not just from rob but her grandparents as well. They’re all outraged for telling Kara about her mom because she yelled at all of them and is refusing to even take their calls.

Yes, the lie was terrible but I just ruined the image she had of her late mother for my own benefit. Rob called me a selfish d*ck for not taking into consideration how this would affect Kara finding out about this.

So right now I feel like sh*t. I get “honesty is the best policy” but in this case I don’t know if I was an *sshole for doing it. I’m still learning this whole “dad” business so don’t know if I dropped the ball here.”

Here’s how folks on Reddit responded to the story.

This person said that the man is not wrong here: his ex clearly created this whole mess.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another reader said that this story is even worse than the typical “deadbeat dad” story because the girl was lied to from the very beginning.

Photo Credit: Reddit

This person said that the man is definitely not the *sshole here and that the entire family lied to the girl about what really happened.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another individual said that the man who wrote the story really had no good choices here, but it wasn’t his fault. He was ultimately put into this situation because of the lies of his ex and her family.

Photo Credit: Reddit

And finally, this Reddit users said that the man had to tell the truth and another lie would have prevented him from having any real relationship with his daughter in the long run.

Do you think this man was wrong in his actions?

Or was he justified?

Entitled Woman Demands to Buy a Precious Heirloom. The Internet Was Not Having It.

Some parents have a lot of nerve…

Yes, I understand that everyone believes their children are the best ones on the planet, but still…get a grip.

Here’s a story about a mom who gives new meaning to the word entitled. Let’s take a look.

Entitled Mother Demands I Sell Her Something Extremely Important to Me, Because “My LiTtLe AnGeL DeSeRvEs It!!!!!”

“Okay, this happened back in 2019, I only just thought of posting it here.

Cast: K- kid EM: Entitled Mom Me: Me

Backstory: Before COVID I did some babysitting every now and then, once I babysat K and my house. Also, I have a small doll collection. I know it’s a little weird, please don’t be too judgmental :).

Anyways, a few months before this happened, my grandma gave me a doll for Christmas, which is extremely important to me because it’s from her. Onto the story..

So around 14:00, EM dropped K off at my house, I usually don’t babysit in my own home, but it didn’t bother me that much. At around 16:00, K said she wanted to play hide and seek, so we played for about half an hour until she hid in my room, where she saw my display.

I’m usually really insecure about people seeing it, but she was 6 and looked so excited so I took down the dolls to show her, and let her play with them until 17:00, when EM came to pick her up. EM went to my room to get K, and I started to clean up. EM noticed the dolls, and asked:

EM: Hey, are you selling any of those? K loooooves dolls.

Me: Oh, I’m not selling any of these ones, but I have some others in storage I could-

EM: *pointing at the one my grandmother gave me* Oh, but that one is soooooo pretty! I’m sure you could spare it for my daughter. How much would you like for it?

Me: I’m sorry, that’s from my Grandma, I can’t sell it.

EM: is she dead?

Me: *extremely confused and shocked* No?

EM: Well then how important could it possibly be? Dolls are for children anyway, don’t be so selfish! (I was still technically a child so her logic was ridiculous) Here, I’ll give you $5.

I was a little frustrated at this point, especially because she wouldn’t even give me a chance to talk.

Me: Even if $5 was anywhere near a decent price, I wouldn’t sell this for $100. Now if you’d please pay me for babysitting K, I would be happy to sell you a different doll-

EM: What is wrong with people these day!?! You are so selfish, what are you even going to do with those dolls?! Grow up and stop trying to ruin my daughter’s childhood! K Deserves that!!

Luckily, my mom’s car pulled into the driveway at that exact moment, and EM paid me for babysitting and left, but not after having a little temper tantrum.

After that experience, I stopped letting parents drop their kids off at my house for babysitting.”

And here’s how readers responded to this story.

This reader said the person should push the price up. WAY UP.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another person said they related to this story because they get people wanting to buy their house all the time…random strangers that just knock on the door…

Photo Credit: Reddit

This individual made a good point: the mom wants the doll so bad for their kid, but the child will likely get bored of the doll at some point anyway, so why the big fuss.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Finally, this person made a good observation: doesn’t it always seem like people who say “don’t be selfish” are the most selfish folks out there? Think about that one…

A Father Fired His Own Son. Was He Wrong?

It can be a great idea for family members to work together and other times…maybe not so much.

A father shared his story on Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page about having to fire his own son and he wanted to know if he’s wrong for doing so.

Let’s check out the story.

AITA for firing my son from family work?

“Throwaway. First language is not English but living in UK for 10 years.My wife is from UK.

This is really creating problems in the house and my wife is currently at my MILs house. My son did not leave his room for a month except going to his therapist or to take his medications.

My son (21M) has returned to our hometown 5 months ago after 3 years failing at college also failing at various jobs he worked. He was graduated as a valedictorian at high school and was accepted to a really good college so it was a really bitter 3 years for all of us watching him fail.

When he returned to the home, we gave him 2 months to rest and then he started to work at my company as an intern. I thought it would help him develop life and work skills because he did not work until college due to really hectic school schedule.

In his first month,he was doing OK but at the second month,he started detoriating and he was really closed and only answered when he was asked something specific,also he started to come late and he was really looking dirty,also started to smell. His colleagues were really disturbed and one of them asked me to bring him to a therapist or call a therapist to his workplace.

I agreed and arranged a meeting with a therapist at our workplace with my son. At the end,he was diagnosed with cyclotymic depression with major episodes and therapist said he needs constant therapy and medication.

After all this news and with the complaints of my colleagues,I fired my son from the work.Well,this was big news for my wife and she accused me of infantilizing my son and never trusting. Well,I don’t. He is really incapable of taking care of himself,someone has to make him remember even to eat or take a bath or he just sleeps,wakes up and looks to the ceiling.

When I said this,she got really angry and said she was going to her mom’s house and taking our son,my son looked her and yelled “Leave!” She was scared and left the house and after that he started to cry and became a little kid.That night was hard and he was like a 10 year old in 21 hear old’s body.

I am currently at home most of the times and working from home,also the surges in the COVID cases in my area made it more possible.Also we are a healthcare software company for hospitals so WFH is really possible and I only go to in person work maybe once a week.

My wife is currently looking for divorce attorneys and even my mom and dad are accusing me for finishing my marriage. They all think my son has something he can come over and I am overreacting.

The only support I have is FIL(him and MIL are divorced since my wife was a little baby) and he is currently living with us helping me taking care of him. We are taking really slow baby steps and his psychiatrist said if it wasn’t COVID,he would be hospitalized to a mental health care clinic. He currently started to eat a full meal and we are really glad.

AITA for firing my son from family work?”

Here’s how people responded to the man’s story.

This reader said that the man’s son probably needed to be fired because it’s obvious he can’t handle any big responsibilities right now.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another reader said that the man’s wife clearly isn’t grasping how serious the situation is or what their son needs right now.

Photo Credit: Reddit

This Reddit user pointed out that the son might need full-time care…and that his father isn’t the one who should be handling this.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Finally, a person argued that it just doesn’t make any sense for the man’s son to be working at all during this time. And maybe the whole family could use some therapy…

What do you think?

Was this dad wrong for firing his son?

Is This Guy Awful for Telling Their Family a Secret About His Brother’s Wealth? Here’s What People Said.

The battle of the s*xes is always raging…and when there is money involved…well, let’s just say that some men get their egos hurt if they aren’t the big breadwinner.

And this story from the “Am I the *sshole?” page on Reddit puts that whole phenomenon front and center…and it got kind of ugly.

Let’s take a look at what happened.

AITA for telling my family that my brother earns less than his wife?

“My brother (M 32), who we’ll call Luke is a good guy, but he’s very lazy.

He’s always wanted money but never wanted to work for it. His wife; (F 30) who we’ll call Jane, is awesome. Me and my wife are so happy he’s with her because she’s just very kind and funny, and has become a good friend to us as well as family member, particularly with my wife.

She has a high paying job. She live in a nice house, buy nice things, have a nice car etc. My brother has a pretty normal job, he’s not very ambitious and now that he’s with her, he’s content with that (which is totally fine by the way).

Jane has told my wife a couple times that she doesn’t mind paying for everything, but that he doesn’t like to talk about it in public, and get defensive if she mentions anything that she bought when friends or family are present, I have noticed this too.

Well, my parents got vaccinated so we all went there for dinner. It was a great time. At one point, my dad is taking about finances and saving, etc. And my brother mentions the house “he bought” and the car “he bought”, me and my wife are rolling our eyes, Jane looks a little disgruntled.

And then, at one point he says “yes we have a simple relationship with money, I make it, she spends it!” Like a joke, but joking about the wrong thing if that makes sense, because he’s alluding to the fact that this is true.

So I say “Luke, that’s a bit unfair. Jane is the bread winner in your household, and she bought the house and car didn’t she?” He laughs and says “no!” So I don’t bother after that.

He called me later and blasted me saying it was none of my businesses and so what if she bought those things. I said he should be a little more appreciative and respectful.

We haven’t spoken since, and my mum and dad are annoyed that I said it because it made dinner awkward.”

Very interesting…

Let’s see how folks on Reddit responded…

This person said that the guy totally brought this on himself.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another Reddit user called the brother a misogynist and that he’s acting out because he’s embarrassed about his situation.

Photo Credit: Reddit

This individual said that the man is discrediting all of his wife’s hard work. Not cool!

Photo Credit: Reddit

This reader said that he crossed two lines in his actions. Two very big lines.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Lastly, this person said that if she were in this wife’s position, she would not be happy at all. This guy sounds like a real jerk…

What do you think?

Was this person way out of line for telling their family about this?

Sound off in the comments and let your voice be heard!

A Parent From a Wealthy Neighborhood Asked if They’re a Jerk for Ruining Halloween for Less Wealthy Families

Halloween is a night for kids to run wild and have fun with their friends…but, as you know, there’s always bound to be some kind of wrench thrown into the works whenever parents get involved.

And this parent asked if they were wrong for making Halloween not a festive night, but a real downer for a bunch of kids from another part of town.

Let’s see what they had to say and how people on Reddit reacted to the story.

AITA? for ruining thousands of kids’ Halloween and not feeling bad about it?

“I live in a large neighborhood, about 90 houses. We are what’s considered the ‘rich’ neighborhood. So our neighborhood as always been a hotspot for trick or treaters.

We used to get about 700 – 1000 kids a year, I’ve always loved getting trick or treaters because my kids are teens now and don’t trick or treat anymore. But in the last four years, it’s gotten ridiculous.

There’s thousands of kids and their parents flooding the streets, people with hay in their rigs carrying kids around, trampling yards, littering candy wrappers everywhere, and the amount of small children walking around by themselves is APPALLING. People from the neighboring town of 30,000 people take their kids to my neighborhood.

I was annoyed, but I never really did anything about it till two years ago. My daughter tripped and broke her arm (we didn’t think it was a break but we wanted to go to the er anyway to get it checked out) and there were so many people in our neighborhood, we couldn’t get out.

There were cars everywhere, lining the streets, parked in people’s yards, it was horrible. We had to wait until everyone left (about 1 am) to go to the hospital. My daughter had to wait in pain for HOURS.

At that point, I was done. I contacted the neighborhood community and we managed to get some folks (cops mostly) to stand the at the gate with a list and only let in certain people. (folks that live here, family members, friends)

If you wanted to get in, you had to be close to someone in the neighborhood. It was great, there were only about 300 kids in the neighborhood and after there was barely any trash. And, we’re doing it again this year.

I recently told my sister what I have done, and she got really angry. When we were kids, we had to trick or treat in other neighborhoods because we lived in a trailer park with no other kids. She told me I was a horrible person for ruining thousands of kids Halloween.

But honestly, I’m not too broken up about it. It was a hazard, if there was a fire or an emergency, no one would be able to get in to help. When I was a kid, there was never any cars lining the streets, the residences could get out if they wanted, it was never dangerous.

I don’t think I’m in the wrong, but I’ve always respected my sister’s opinion. AITA?”

Hmmmmm…

This Reddit user said that the parent is not wrong in the situation and that she took this action because were clearly not behaving.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another person said they deal with a similar situation on Halloween where they live, but with one big difference: there’s no littering and destruction.

Photo Credit: Reddit

This reader said that the neighborhood the person is talking about is clearly not set up for these kinds of crowds and that it’s a safety issue.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another Reddit user said a similar situation happens in a neighborhood by them and it’s just too busy and crowded.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Finally, one person said they think that this parent is being a bit of an *sshole and they shouldn’t ruin kids having a good time just because their parents are incompetent and disrespectful.

Photo Credit: Reddit

How about you?

Do you think this parent acted like a jerk or were they justified in their actions?

Let us know your thoughts in the comments. Thanks!

A Woman for Advice After She Found Out Someone Tried on Her Wedding Dress in Secret

Do you want a life tip that could potentially save you some major drama?

Never, EVER, touch a woman’s wedding dress. EVER.

I didn’t think there would be a whole lot of gray area about this, but a woman took to Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page to ask if she was wrong for getting all fired up because she found out that not one, but TWO other people tried on her wedding dress…

Let’s see what went down.

AITA For demanding my fiancé and his mom to pay for a new wedding dress?

“Me 26F and my fiancé 28M been engaged for 4 months, we’re planning on having our wedding on October 18th.

My future mother in law kept annoying me and sending me suggestions for choosing the right wedding dress, and said that she knew better and tried to get me to approve of wedding dresses that she chose and when she couldn’t enforce her decision she demanded that I take her with me to buy my wedding dress so she could have an opinion.

Before I went shopping I called her to ask if she wanted to come but started making excuses about how busy she was with my sister in law, I went shopping with my mom and I was able to find a really nice dress although it cost me a little over what I saved up for, but it was worth it.

I made some changes to it and it was perfect, it arrived to my apartment at the end of the week, I made sure it was stored in a safe place so it doesn’t get ruined.

Yesterday, I got back from my mom’s house, and found that my fiancé wasn’t home neither was the dress, I called him immediately knowing that he must’ve taken it to show it to his mom since she continuously asked to see it and refused to have me send her pictures of it on Facebook.

I was so mad when it was confirmed that my fiancé took it to show it to his mom, he said he was gonna be home in 30 minutes after he went to the supermarket I waited for longer than I had to and then when he arrived I ran to get my dress that was buried underneath grocery bags.

I took it to check on it and it’s zipper was broken and the dress itself (fabric) was stretched out, I was like what the f*ck happened to it, my mother in law must’ve tried it on, because it looked ruined, the straps were almost loose.

I had to call my mother in law when my fiancé told me his mom and sister took turns to try it on, I was absolutely livid, she told me she did nothing wrong and that I was making a big deal out of it.

She said she’d get a replacement for the broken zipper, but I told her to pay for a new dress since it was stretched out and no longer fitting, she refused and said that I probably wasn’t happy with my dress choice and wanted to her to pay so I could get a new one.

I yelled at her for trying it on and ruining it, that she and my fiancé were responsible for ruining my dress so they should pay for a new one, It’s done, no longer fitting, the straps are in a horrible condition, my mom said she’d pay for fixing it but I just hate it now that someone else wore it before me.

I’m mad at both of them and seriously considering postponing the wedding.”

Uh oh…that was a terrible idea.

Let’s see what people had to say.

This person stated the obvious: her fiancé and his family were way, way out of line on this one.

A Petting Zoo Worker Let an Animal Spit on Some Misbehaving Teenagers. Were They Wrong to Do So?

I already love this story just by the name of the article!

But we’re still gonna get to the nitty-gritty details of what exactly happened here because that’s what we do!

Here’s the deal: a person who works at a petting zoo took some unusual actions against some teenagers who were behaving badly…and they wanted to know if they were wrong for doing so.

Let’s take a look at the story.

AITA for allowing two teenagers to be spit on by a llama?

“I work at a petting zoo here, and this weekend we had two teenagers (around 16, boyfriend and girlfriend) who were antagonizing a llama.

I told them “you might want to cut that out! Llamas spit in self-defense.” But they kind of laughed my warning off.

Now, I knew that llama spit was a whole lot worse than they probably thought it was. But I decided not to tell them about that. I figured if they persisted, I’d trust the llama to teach them a lesson.

The llama was being patient. At one point it gave them a “warning spit” (just saliva) and they went “eww” and laughed about it and brushed it off, and then kept going at it.

Finally, the llama had enough…and unleashed its green, defensive spit that llamas are known for. It got the girl square in the face. She dropped to her knees and started retching, and eventually threw up. Her boyfriend was gagging and ran away, towards the building that I was in.

To make things worse for them, I didn’t even let them come in to wash up in the petting zoo’s only bathroom! It was a slow day, so I just locked the doors. I told them I didn’t want that smell inside, and made them leave the farm without washing up.

AITA?

The girl’s parents called me the next day and yelled at me saying that was too harsh. Maybe it was…I knew that if you don’t wash out llama spit right away the smell sinks into your skin and becomes extremely hard to remove, but I wanted the lesson to sink in as well.”

Lesson learned!

Here’s what people said…

This Reddit user said that the petting zoo employee is definitely not the *sshole in this situation.

Lastly, an individual who works in a zoo said that everyone involved was a jerk. It’s pretty clear-cut!
