Kids demand father the money he got from selling their childhood home despite not being in contact with him for years, father refuses: ‘You’re not my problem anymore'

Kids demand father the money he got from selling their childhood home despite not being in contact with him for years, father refuses: ‘You’re not my problem anymore'

Parenting demands that both the parents and their kid be involved in the relationship, otherwise neither of them can move along. If a kid refuses to let their parents be a part of their lives, there is little the parent can do to change that, especially when the kid gets older and has their own life. I feel for parents who truly try their best but are met with constant criticism from their children, and as a child myself, I constantly remind myself that my parents are people too, and they deser…

‘Neither of us wants you’: Adopted 15-year-old kid confronts divorcing parents after they admit neither of them wants to take custody of him

We can all wholeheartedly understand that getting a divorce is a difficult experience. No one wishes for themselves that their loving relationship would fall apart until the only choice is to completely break apart from each other, especially not when there are kids in the picture. But that is no excuse to drop your marital problems on your kids. Even more so, it is crucial that kids know their parents' divorce is by no circumstances their fault, and parents who fail to show that to their kids…

‘This money is not yours’: Family demands kid give up the money he received from his grandmother's inheritance, claiming it was actually meant to go to his father

‘This money is not yours’: Family demands kid give up the money he received from his grandmother's inheritance, claiming it was actually meant to go to his father

Inheritances are messy and can so easily cause drama and even break up an entire family. How is it that you can spend a lifetime with a group of people, regard them as the people who are most important and closest to you, and then throw these relationships all away for money? Many people can be asked that question, including the family in this Reddit story. OP (original poster) has received a life-changing inheritance from his grandmother but was met with unexpected demands from the rest of his…

‘You care only about yourself': Parents claim daughter abandoned them on an island after they failed to return to their cruise ship on time

‘You care only about yourself': Parents claim daughter abandoned them on an island after they failed to return to their cruise ship on time

Anyone who has ever been on a cruise ship knows that cruise ships wait for absolutely no one. Actually, no public transportation ever waits for their passengers. If you are not there before the departure time, they will depart without you, and you will have to figure out another way to get to your destination. This is a lesson that the parents in this Reddit story had to learn the hard way, and it's honestly crazy that full-grown adults have not figured it out before. What's even more crazy, is…
