Treating one child better or worse than another is unjustifiable in 99% of cases. I’m not talking about garden-variety variations, where parents are slightly closer to one child because of common interests, but don’t give that child unearned privileges just because they like baseball. I’m talking about purposefully excluding a child out of spite and …

UPDATE: ‘They have only been dating for 4 months’: In-laws try to force a bride to allow her Golden Child brother-in-law’s new girlfriend’s baby to be in the bridal party, divisive chaos ensues when the couple refuses
These in-laws seemed to forget WHO was getting married at this wedding. And although their Golden Child son had just met a new girlfriend (with a baby from another man, I might add), it was their other son and his fiancée who got to call all of the shots. As it turns out, they had …

Dysfunctional outdoor wedding demands guests pay $2 for water, serves wedding cake without plates or utensils: ‘I watched as people walked around holding dessert in their hands.’
A perfect wedding is something that can be paid for. You can’t always control exactly what your wedding guests do, but if you spend enough money, you can at least control the food being served, the music being played at the reception, and the pastor who is joining you in holy matrimony. If you have …

29-year-old bride demands her cousin let her host her wedding in her pottery studio, badmouths her to her family when she refuses: ‘My studio isn’t licensed for events like that and the cleanup would be a total nightmare’
It’s easy to sit around and contemplate your dream wedding venue. Wouldn’t it be swell to get married in the Metropolitan Museum of Art or at Notre-Dame de Paris? Of course, we know as mere civilians we can’t afford to have a wedding at these places, and the risk of being around such precious artifacts …

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 …

Entitled bride demands wedding guests only wear beige or gray, best friend refuses to attend because she looks bad in those colors: ‘I look like a ghost in a burlap sack.’
It’s expected that you make some sacrifices for the weddings of those close to you. You’d probably rather use your precious PTO to go on a vacation for yourself instead of spending it traveling to Piedmont, South Dakota, to watch your cousin get hitched, but you use your PTO anyway because you love her. We’ve …

Groom refuses to let his best friend bring his wife as a plus 1 to his wedding because his best friend refused to let him bring his girlfriend as a plus 1 to his wedding: ‘Josh told me I still had a plus 1, but it just can’t be Stacey.’
Deciding who gets a plus one and who doesn’t is a dangerous game. It’s pretty common to roll your eyes at a buddy who wants to bring the girl he’s been dating for 3 weeks to your wedding that you’ve been planning for two years. If they break up a month later, then your friend …

Many people feel incredibly pressured to proceed with an engagement, even if it’s clear that the marriage is doomed. The sunk cost fallacy, the phenomenon whereby a person is reluctant to abandon a strategy or course of action because they have invested heavily in it, even when it is clear that abandonment would be more …

It is extremely frustrating when you spend years saving up for something, pinching pennies, and biding your time, just for someone else to be given the money flat out.
