This poor girl has been through the ringer. Some family secrets are incredibly banal. It doesn’t affect your life that much to know that your mom had a fling with a cowboy in South Dakota during the summer of 81, or that your dad was engaged to a woman in Wisconsin that never came to …

19-year-old refuses to be the English translator for her parents after her 22-year-old brother also learns English: ‘I’ve been forced to do it since I was 11’
It’s incredibly common for the children of immigrant parents to have to serve as translators for them, even when they’re as young as 6 or 7. They have to explain their parents’ medical problems to doctors, fill out confusing government paperwork, and order food at restaurants for the whole family. This service is not only …

21-year-old mother of 2 expects her 18-year-old sister to constantly take care of her kids: ‘When she’s taking care of them she’s on her phone and ignoring them 80% of the time’
I don’t understand people who have kids and don’t want to take care of them. I’m not talking about parents who need to work three jobs just to keep the lights on, nor am I talking about parents who work overtime to make sure they can pay for their children’s college educations. I’m talking about …

25-year-old refuses to let his 23-year-old girlfriend’s parents move into his house after they got evicted for the 2nd time in 7 years: ‘They are both avid gamblers’
There are many family situations that go like this: one family member consistently misbehaves. They are irresponsible with the bit of money they have. They alienate people by taking advantage of their kindness, and yet they never stop taking advantage of others because one person is always willing to enable them. This could be an …

Parents ask 31-year-old daughter to contribute $5K to her younger sister’s wedding fund after they refused to spend a dime on her wedding 2 years earlier: ‘You and your husband were more established financially. Your sister’s still figuring things out.’
Many people’s parents cover at least part of their wedding costs. I’d say weddings and down payments for houses are the most common large-scale financial gifts aging parents are willing to give their adult children, because they’re setting the foundation for a productive adult life. I know that wealthy parents paying for their kids’ dream …

Self-centered 42-year-old mom refuses to tone down her outfit for her 18-year-old daughter’s high school graduation: ‘It’s an objective fact that I’m pretty according to most people.’
I feel like many people misinterpret the compliment, «I can’t tell who is the sister and who is the mother!» A lot of hot young moms take this comment quite literally, thinking that people actually can’t tell the difference between a 35-year-old woman and her 16-year-old daughter. For the most part, men use that compliment …

Parents berate mom for feeding their kids cake and soda at her son’s 6th birthday party: ‘If you don’t stay at the party or say anything about dietary restrictions, can you really be upset afterward?’
I don’t care how healthy your family is: you should let your kid have birthday cake. I’m not saying you can’t restrict your kid’s diet at all, especially if they’re going to a different birthday party every weekend. But outright banning them from consuming sugar during any occasion is wild. They should at least be …

Parents throw tantrum when dog owner refuses to let their bratty kids ride his golden retriever: ‘No asking, no eye contact, just an unspoken expectation that their children were entitled to use my living, breathing pet as a ride’
Little kids can’t always handle being around dogs, and dogs can’t always handle being around little kids. Some families have dogs from the day their babies are born, but a lot of parents hold off on getting a big furry animal until their kids can listen to «no» and obey it. It doesn’t matter if …

Entitled mom demands library patron move from the computer he’s using so that her 16-year-old daughter can use it: ‘You’re an adult. You can work anywhere. She’s a child.’
Many people no longer know how to behave in public spaces. You might assume that they never learned how to do so in the first place, but my theory is that the public’s social skills have degenerated over time. Some say that the events of the past five years have made people forget how to …

31-year-old helps new mom friend care for her newborn twins every day for 2 weeks, mom freaks out when friend’s husband says she’s too sick to help: ‘I didn’t forbid her from going. I just protected her when she was too tired to stand up for herself.
There’s an art to asking somebody for help. If you have to ask a friend to do you arduous favors for free on a nearly constant basis, then you probably need to hire someone to help you. It’s one thing if you’ve agreed on a schedule and your friend or loved one isn’t pressured into …
