Money can cause a lot of issues. Though just a piece of little green paper, money makes the world go round (or, it makes the world stop spinning). We all bow down to the dollar because it’s what we use to acquire things—food, housing, trips to the Maldives—you name it! Lending money to people is …

‘I told her she’s a horrible mother’: Aunt calls out mom in the family group chat for constantly favoring her 15-year-old juvenile delinquent son over her often-forgotten 13-year-old son
Favoritism between siblings isn’t always blatant. Sometimes, a parent secretly has a favorite child but tries to hide that as much as possible to ensure all of their children get the same amount of love and support. Other times, favoritism manifests as authoritative parenting for the older sibling and permissive parenting for the much younger …

21-year-old college student boards plane without her sister and her 3 small kids after her husband was barred from boarding for disorderly conduct: ‘My mom was particularly mad that I didn’t stay and support my sister’
How responsible are you for the bad behavior of your family members? That’s a question we all have to ask ourselves at one point or another, and there’s no 100% correct answer to it. You might be the one who is always picking up the pieces when things fall apart with your family members, and …

Older sister expects 25-year-old chef brother to feed her 3 kids under 10 for free daily because he is the only person who can make them eat vegetables: ‘I told her it’s a big ask’
It’s one of the most classic and common parenting predicaments out there: how do you get your kids to eat their greens? Since time immemorial, moms and dads have despaired over how to try and make broccoli seem fun. It’s no wonder that if they manage to find something that works they have no intention …

Aunt bans children from family gatherings at her home, despite her 4 and 6-year-old nephews being the only kids in the family: ‘If this becomes the norm, what happens for holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas?’
It’s not easy when rules that feel targeted at you are implemented. I empathize with the mom in this story because her kids’ exclusion feels a bit like high school. She is the only person in the family with young children, and her sister decided to implement a «no kids» rule for gatherings at her …

23-year-old uncle smashes his brothers phone after her refuses to pay for the TV his 12-year-old son broke: ‘My mom said it was an accident, my dad said I could just replace it myself’
Back in the day, breaking a TV was a huge deal. I will never forget the night all the families on our cul-de-sac went to a party, and my neighbor Nile broke our other neighbor’s giant flat-screen TV. Nile was about eight and broke the TV screen by throwing a toy at it. This was …

Aunt cares for her 9 and 14-year-old nephews for 2 years after her sister passes, brother-in-law kicks her out after she asked the oldest to make lunch once: ‘I packed my things and left quietly’
It’s sad to realize that the most selfless, hardworking, and giving people rarely get credit for their contributions to others. That might, in part, be because they’re doing things out of the kindness of their hearts instead of for praise and status, but I think that’s letting off the benefactors of their services too easy. …

Aunt refuses to take 8-year-old niece out for meals after she continuously orders $50 worth of food and refuses to eat it: ‘She will ask for 50 piece nuggets, large fries, deluxe quarter pounder with cheese and two shakes with two ice creams’
It ain’t always easy being the fun aunt. You get the opportunity to spend a lot of money on your nieces and nephews and spend quality time with them, but you don’t have the authority to parent them. If your siblings or your partner’s siblings have parented them well, they should be able to understand …

So many people don’t think twice about taking advantage of their loved ones. They see it as their right to get constant service and favors from family members and friends, no matter how absurd they may be. While we do have some level of duty to our family, especially when they’re experiencing significant hardship, you’ve …
