If there’s one thing I hate, it’s mezzanine leaners. If you are seated in the less-than-ideal mezzanine of a theater or an arena, it is best practice not to lean forward so you can get a better view of the action. If you do so, you will block the view of the people sitting behind …

‘We paid for your childhood, now it’s your turn’: Entitled mom expects 26-year-old daughter to pay her bills and cover the cost of flights and hotels for a European family vacation because she paid for her as a kid
Parents are not entitled to be reimbursed for raising their children. They know that when they sign up to become parents, they’re not signing up for something that will make them money, unless they are planning to monetize their child through baby modeling, child acting, or family influencer marketing. In most cases, kids are a …

Family abandoned 7-year-old dog because they were expecting a baby, begs new owner to give them the dog back 10 months after she adopted him: ‘The husband never wanted to give the dog up but it was an ultimatum the wife gave.’
Sometimes animals need to be rehomed. It’s a sad reality of pet ownership, and it doesn’t inherently make somebody a bad person, as long as they go through the proper rehoming channels. There’s a significant difference between leaving a cat in a cage in front of a storefront, letting it out into the street like …

23-year-old refuses to let mom and 5-year-old daughter cut her in line for ice cream after she’d already waited 20 minutes: ‘The mom this big passive-aggressive sigh and said, «Some people just don’t have empathy.»‘
There’s something very noble about helping out a parent in public. I am more than willing to stand on the subway so that a mom can sit next to her young kid. It’s one of those things that doesn’t cost me anything, seeing that I have two working legs that can easily stand up over …

16-year-old mom stops her family from seeing her baby after her 30-year-old sister took her 4-month-old to the beach without applying sunscreen: ‘My parents said I was too young to know what’s best’
Anyone can be a fantastic parent or a terrible parent at any age. It’s easy to look at someone with kids, «too young» or «too old,» and assume they have poor judgment in all areas of parenting, but that’s not always true. A teenager could have poor judgment in having a baby young, and subsequently …

Parents demand single mom pay them $800 because her 8th-grade son accidentally broke their son’s glasses: ‘I find it very difficult to believe that a child requires $800 glasses’
One of the worst feelings is accidentally breaking someone’s possessions. Even if you only do minimal damage to someone’s property, you feel awful because there’s very little you can do to fix the damage in the moment. You can apologize profusely, offer to buy them a replacement, or give them the money to replace it …

11-year-old asks 20-year-old babysitter for a cup of coffee, babysitter asks her dad if she’s allowed to have it, leaving dad enraged that he questioned her: ‘Did you think my daughter is a liar?’
Kids lie all the time. It doesn’t matter if they’ve been in a religious institution since birth that instructs them not to lie; they will lie about something. Heck, I know people who grew up Catholic and lied about sins they didn’t commit so that they could have something to talk about in confession! It …

Plane passenger refuses to give up their assigned seat after entitled mother tries to sneakily steal their window seat: ‘»I’m not responsible for your poor planning»’
Airplanes feel fake. You’re telling me I’m in a metal tube in the sky, 30,000 feet above land, and I’m supposed to be okay with that? Yeah, so what if cars and trains are more dangerous? At least they’re not, again, 30,000 feet in the sky. Maybe I’m just afraid of heights, but you’ll always …

Retired mom takes out $30,000 personal loan in her son’s name to buy a boat, threatens to call CPS on him if he reports it to the police: ‘They’ve missed 4 payments and [are] going to let it default since the boat can’t be repossessed’
Everybody has a different relationship with their parents, and those differences extend to finances. There is no shortage of 26-year-olds whose parents secretly pay their rent, but that doesn’t cancel out the 18-year-olds who pay the mortgage on their parents’ house. Some kids support their parents, and some parents help their grown kids. Most of …

Dad criticizes his 26-year-old son’s summer wedding date because his 6, 7, and 9-year-old stepchildren stay with their dad during the summer: ‘There were tears when they found out they wouldn’t be able to come’
I hate when people think they have a say in the location or time of someone else’s wedding. Now, if you’re footing the bill, you should probably have some kind of a say in whether a destination wedding in Mexico for 200 guests is within your budget. But if you’re just a random friend or …
