The young man in the last story should have looked his grandmother in the eye and said sweetly, "Sorry. I'm young and have my whole life to live. I can't look after you. Taking care of an old lady would be an obstacle to my future. You understand, don't you?"
My response would have been along the lines of "I will give you exactly what you gave me - see you in 25 years."
@@sherylcascadden4988 Also, what about child pay?
No I
Or mention that in some (past) cultures the help she would get from younger generations is help getting up the mountain or into the forest where she would be left to die so as to not be a burden on the family.
Kristen S: that was the perfect response and I can't believe I didn't think of it myself
Last story: I suspect that the Grandmother showed up because her daughter and her husband and two kids told her they didn't want anything to do with her.
Comment
Yep. His house was likely the last stop after the rest of the family cut her off.
Call police and demand past child support.
Sounds about right.
I have to agree. What other reason would she show up? And that last comment she made is disgusting about being in an orphanage would have been better.
2nd story: bullies don't get invited to their victim's birthday party. Period.
I didn't think of that... What a horrible party to be at were the kids who bully you are there to take your new toys and break them or other awful things...
@@SailorMya Never played Fallout 3, eh?
Jumping on too add that the teacher would have had more of a leg to stand on if the kid had invited all but one or two kids. But only inviting three or four (a few) kids shouldn't trigger such an "invite everyone" rule. Especially since OP said he couldn't afford to invite 24+ people to the party. It's very different to go from a few friends to everyone in the class
@@Cemi_Mhikku Nope! lol just 1 & 4! lol
The rule is usually that if you aren’t inviting everyone, don’t hand out invitations in class. This isn’t about a few kids missing a few parties, but about the kids who never get invited to any parties not being further ostracized.
Parent: NTA.
Teacher: idiot who either doesn’t understand the above rule or can’t communicate it appropriately.
Ask the teacher when the cash for the party will arrive so she can host everyone. Then drop a call to the principal and let them know about the teachers special rules.
And more often than not the principal will side with the teacher or slide away from it because this is between you and them and that parent they do NOT want another row with.
I’m thinking there should be a location rental included as, I don’t know about op but my house cannot hold 100+ people, so I’m sure she won’t mind covering that cost as well. Hmm, come to think of it she might have to cover catering costs too, as I’m sure the food planned for a 30 person party just won’t be enough.
@@Undomaranel Then I'd have put in a complaint with the superintendent or the school board.
@@kcbaby136 Don't forget some good Public Liability Insurance. You can't have all those unknowns and no insurance. What if someone got hurt?
Even if it was a official policy about inviting kids to parties on school grounds kids talk so even if the parents had direct contact the class will find out anyways and still feel left out
Overstepping tacher needs a little chat with the school superintendent. She doesn't get a say in private, non-school activities. It was like her going into a church and telling the pastor who can be in the church choir.
She needs a chat with a freaking psychiatrist.....
It's one of those things children need to learn early. Not everyone gets invited to everything. You can't tell a parent they have to invite everyone to a birthday party like you can't tell a president they have to invite the whole country to a private celebration. Stop coddling them.
In my country, you either invite the whole class or the boys/girls. We don't leave anyone out, and if you do, you have serious problems and a news paper covering it. On the other hand, the other classmates' parents aren't attending. Growing up with this, I truly have a hard time understanding the 'pick out some/a few' way. I understand it a bit more if you also have to invite the parents, but it clearly is a cultural thing. In my country, this parent would be the a-hole.
It's a common rule in most of the districts around US. It's meant to prevent kids from being excluded and bullying, but really, teacher is doing her job. Not saying it's right, but this is a problem that requires the parents to change, and possibly even press lawsuits as its an invasion of privacy. But...parents don't and haven't, so it still stands in many districts. Usually kids are told this at the beginning of the year, as an advisory to keep their invites on a more hush hush level. When you look at it from the perspective of the kid whose picked on and the only one in the whole class that's excluded, it makes sense. But often times, invites don't work that way, and the one being excluded is a Karen's precious jonny rotten.
But yea, parents need to come together to get the rule changed, not yell at the teachers like they can change the rules. If the superintendent is elected and not appointed, parents could use that as leverage. Sadly, my district is appointed.
@@tafuckingdarh In my country (America), I have the right to invite or not invite people into my home as I see fit, and no school teacher is going to tell me any differently. End of discussion.
gun story: Karen should have gotten arrested, like when someone calls in a fake bomb threat. It's the same thing.
And you are absolutely correct, she probably got heavily fined tho
There need to be much stronger punishments for misuse of police resources and making lies like this. Jail time would be good. Maybe teach these entitled a$$hats that their actions are unacceptable.
Yeah try that womans stunt in an airport and see where you end up.
As much as I detest open-carry and concealed-carry laws, I hate people who cry wolf when they see someone carry a gun even more. OP clearly didn't draw out his gun, what more threaten people with it. Leaving your children in the car in the carpark is even worse.
agreed
Mother Abandoning Child and Father of Child Story: OP should contact a Lawyer and Sue dear old Mom for Child Support...
Regardless of whether or not she wants a Child, she HAS one and all the Responsibilities that go with it...
Good on OP for working so hard to make sure his kid gets what he needs...
What's more, there's a good chance it would turn out higher.
With the benefit of hindsight in regards ti income, a court would be able to calculate what would have been a reasonable payment, rather than pleading poverty in the moment...
Then it would become a lump debt for how much is owed in the future, not how much is owed off of a present financial situation.
I totally agree with this!! The neglectful mother should have paid child support...
I knew someone in our neighborhood who is a single dad and it is amazing how he take care of his kids, which are close of my age, and early 2000s ain't a good time to be a single dad...
@@yachishairclips2250 I fear that the court might somehow side with the mother....they have a tendency to do that
My cousin's wife, after having three boys, suddenly decided she didn't want to be a wife or a mother anymore, so she packed up and left. She did pay child support and had contact with the boys, but she didn't want that much to do with them. They all turned out fine, though, because their grandparents, aunts and uncles were there for them.
@@kaiseremotion854.. Yeah.. That is why early 2000s ain't a good time to be single dad.. Because even if he demands help... The court will lean towards the mother...
With Violence and Neglect of Children.. It is unfair that father are always on the blame when mothers could be abusers too
I shook my head so hard I'm getting whiplash... wow. That last one was something else. "Oh yeah, I abandoned you for 25 years and made your mother abandon you too, but now that I'm older I want you to take care of me even though I never once looked after you because I had my entire life to live." Uh... what?
Yeah. I have a feeling that bitch of a grandma was the primary reason why the mother abandoned them.
The mother though isn’t without Blane either because she could’ve tried to establish a connection. Unless the grandma forbade her from doing that. Which makes this grandma the WORST grandma ever. Right up there with any grandma who tells her grandkids she’ll throw them in the trash like dad should have.
Story 2. I am a teacher and that teacher is just ridiculous. Most teachers I know tell parents to give the invitations out at the end of the school day so there are no dramas at school.
School teacher story: I hope you requested to have your kid transferred to a different class as it is likely this “teacher” will retaliate against your child. Also, I hope you reported them to the principal or headmaster. Edited for spelling.
As soon as I ended that call I'd be calling the principle.
I've heard this story on another channel. The parent did inform the principal of the teacher's actions. Apparently she has pull similar shenanigans with other parents.
We went through a similar scenario with my youngest son when he was in 4th grade. I was at work when she called me, and I ended the call after telling her to get bent. I then told my boss I needed to go to my kid's school, and I'd be back ASAP. I went to the school, and informed the principal of the call. The principal called her to the office, and she looked like she'd bitten into a sour grape when she walked in and saw me. She initially tried denial, then I asked the principal to call my son in. After a few minutes of her stammering and trying to lie her way out of it, she was fired on the spot. It made what I paid for private school worth it in that moment.
The last story makes me believe that the grandmother should be given a restraining order and the mother to his kid a court summons
In fact, the "egg donor" probably should be required to pay child support, which I'm quite certain she did not.
@@tgbedini that's what I said in my comment, op can still and should sue her for child support.
Is there a statute of limitations for asking for child support? He's 25 now. I'm genuinely curious. The Dad and son deserve that financial support
@@jenn8179 no, there isn't. there are mothers taking father's to court for child support after the kid is 30. So no. He can still get that money
@@maxistothemax940 I guess it depends on what state you're in?
The maximum amount of retroactive child support payments available in the state of Florida is 24 months. This retroactive child support may be made in one lump sum, or in installments.May 29, 2018
Story 2: I swear, a number of teachers become teachers so they can boss around children and inflate their ego.
Sadly, this seems to be true in a wide variety of areas.
@@robertnelson9599 Old saying "Crap rises to the top" seems to apply in these instances.
It should be added that a lot of them are activist groomers too.
@@enforcerridley158 My 8th grade shop teacher got caught in an illicit relationship with one of his students, so it certainly does happen.
One of the most toxic, racist, and disgusting people I have to misfortune to even sit in a game server with is a teacher. When covid started and we were months into it and kids were being kept home and he couldn't go to work, he was literally bitching about how "Kids should just go to school. "Who cares about another 300 student deaths. They'll just die anyway by something else."
The only thing keeping I and others from screenshotting and documenting all of his horrific comments and behaviors and sending them in for evidence to get him canned was that none of us knew his real name or what kind of school he taught at, and we only knew what state he lived in.
Story 1: I've noticed a pattern; Karens will try to forcefully get what they want with dirty moves and then get blacklisted from what they wanted, this happens a lot and it's well-deserved
That and press charges is the only way that we can get civility again, thing are way out of control
I bet she tried to blame the pregnancy for the racism LOL
But jokes aside, that obviously wasn't okay, I really hope she doesn't teach her unborn child to be like that
And they usually wind up screaming
Many stories seem to follow the same formula.
@@crypticghost21 she definitely will
Story 2: Call the school principal to report this crazy teacher's attempt to dictate who you invite to parties at your home during non school hours. Also, should she ever call you with any more crazy stuff hang up right away, and then report her to the principal again.
Story 5: Yeah, it was pretty obvious from the start that MIL doesn't care about either OP or the son and just sees the son as a free caretaker. See ya, MIL.
You know, for that teacher story, if she wants the whole class invited to a party, she could have hosted it in her class. I used to work at a preschool and we celebrated birthdays with the kids. But we never demanded parents to invite them all. That’s their choice if they plan a party.
Seriously, am I the only one that thinks that the teacher should have done better by hosting her own party instead of forcing parents to invite the class(es)?
One of my favorite teachers that my children both had had one or 2 days a month where they had birthday of the month day. All the children who had birthdays in that month had a small party after lunch. And she tried to also celebrate the months we are off on summer break. That way all the children who have birthdays in summer get to celebrate with their classmates.
But our school district instigated a no party invites allow at school.
That way if the children could only invite a few or didn't want to invite some there are no hurt feelings as that can cause issues.
They also strongly suggest to parents to teach the kiddos not to rub it in the faces of those not going but that part is not as easy to inforce as well. Kiddos talk.
@@Emeraldwitch30 that makes sense
That oughta keep her busy. With 24 kids in her class, and 9 months to the school year, odds are that about 18 kids would have birthdays during the school year. That's an average of 2 parties a month. While I agree with your principle here, the school district might think that her job is to actually teach and not to host parties in her class.
@@rickraber1249 you’re not wrong, but it never hurts to celebrate a little before resuming class. At least that’s how it works at preschool
She didn't want to be responsible for the cost, obviously.
The worst part of that last story is knowing that his “mother” had two other kids after him, but never once attempted to establish contact with her firstborn. That she was fine with THEM, but not with HIM, the baby she abandoned. Not gave up, ABANDONED. That must have been the absolute worst slap in the face that poor father and son received throughout that travesty of a visit. I don’t even know these people, and I’d love to find this woman, shake her, and demand to know how she has the nerve to act like she never had a child before these other two. If her mother can get into contact with him, what’s stopping her? He deserves an explanation and an acknowledgment, at the very least.
I had to deal with this on my father's side. Last time I saw him was two decades ago now. Around 8-16 was my "Why doesn't he want me?" phase. At 17 I came to terms with his absence and knowing he knew exactly where I was. At 20 I found out he has sons and it was like a healed wound ripped open all over again with the added bonus "Is it because I'm a girl?" Apparently it wasn't that he didn't want to be a father, he just didn't want to be MY father.
@@katrinascarlet5637 Katrina - you and I are in the same boat, sister. It doesn't feel too great. Are you in contact with any of your brothers? They might be totally different from your birth father. Just a thought.
@@rickraber1249 nah, they're in another country and I dont even know how many just that theyre boys. An aunt mentioned mentioned them ofhand after a couple drinks. He knew my location due to do the legality of technically still having some custody while me and my mom are in a different country. If he wanted to send a letter or visit he had two decades to do so.
@@katrinascarlet5637 Katrina, again same boat. Birthfather and half siblings in another country. With me, it was a very long time ago, and it's been pointed out to me that I don't know my birthfather's side of the story. My mother and her family were very close-mouthed about the circumstances, and I basically know nothing about it. I have contact with one half sibling, and it's a very good thing. The bottom line for the kids - you and me - is that we were indeed abandoned. Nothing's going to change that, no matter the intentions. And the birthfather did indeed have another family - one that he apparently wanted. And that hurts. Not sure what sort of man that makes the birthfather. I will never know.
Given her established pattern of selfish behavior? Most likely she was worried about how awkward and difficult it would be for her to reach out and try and make a connection after all the distance she created with the shit she pulled. And so she decided not to bother.
Story 2: Karen doesn't understand; We DON'T tolerate bullies, I wouldn't invite someone that I hate and that I know is only gonna ruin my day
Story 5: the son asking why his mom left him actually killed me inside. I'm so thankful that my parents have never made me feel like I wasn't wanted or anything ever like that.
Edit: omg the fact that she went & had other children but couldn't be bothered to interact with her firstborn is terrible. I'm so thankful the son has a strong loving Dad who was willing to step up. He will be fine without the mom or gma, & has no obligations to them.
What's really bizarre is that this woman goes to her grandson-by-blood-only to demand HE care for her, rather than going to her daughter and her kids that she - we might assume - is more involved with.
@@segevstormlord3713 Maybe her own daughter can't stand her entitlement either. Not saying it deflates the mothers entitlement to abandon her son but if she is stretching that far for support she must have burn all other bridges.
@@SailorMya Yeah, burned bridges or otherwise lacking options seems likely. I do wish I knew the story, there, but obviously, we never will.
@@segevstormlord3713 could be the husband and two kids found out the skeleton baby mama had in her closet and wanted nothing to do with her or MIL
Breaunna Jackson: Yeah, being dumped as an infant by a parent doesn't feel very good, no matter their reason. Or excuse.
Last Story: Really, Grandma? You don't see your grandson at any point in 25 years and then expect him to love and care for you? As for the "a man can't raise a kid alone" bit, well, whose fault was that? Oh yeah, your daughter's fault.
Actually I think it might be grandma's fault from the start.
Teachers may ask that students not pass out *invitations* in the class unless the entire class is invited but that’s it. Period. Full stop.
Story 5: Sounds like "Grandma" has gotten early Dementia because she is delusional if she believes that she is allowed to be with a Grandson whom she and her Daughter have neglected and refused to take care of and she has the audacity to blame her mistakes on an actual Great dad who worked hard to raise his' son and keep a roof over their heads
If this happened to me i'd be ready to get a restraining order if I catch her or her Daughter trespassing again
20 bucks says that mil and ex show up because someone needs an organ.
I like to imagine the grandma goes to the mom and complains about how ungrateful her first son is. The mom then has to explain to her new family what is going on. She then learns what is feels like to be abandoned by family.
@@robertnelson9599 sweet, poetic justice right there
Kinda like my oldest son whom I legally adopted. His sperm donor of a father wanted zero to do with him for 18 years. Then last summer he wanted with our permission to visit him for a week. His grandparents up there bribed his ass so badly to stay up there it wasn't funny. Best part was when he sued us for custody. I said fine you're paying me for raising him for the last 15 years of his life. Judge goes he's right. You would owe him 80k in child support if you pushed the issue. Case dragged on past kid's 18th and he decided to stay up there with his asshole biological family.
@@hellmark6666 My guess is they want $$$.
That last story pissed me off. The son has no obligation to grandma or his mom. You leave him for 25 years and expect him to welcome you with open arms? You didn't bond with him when he was born! So no, why would he want anything to do with you and the audacity to blame OP? I swear, the absolute nerve of these people...
That last one, wouldn't be surprising if grandma was lying through her teeth about the boy's mother. That she spent so much time manipulating her daughter to where everything backfired on her, and she was hoping to pull a fast in order to get what she wants.
Her daughter has married and had more children. They can take care of her.
"Oh, your daughter kicked you out, did she? Whose fault is that then?"
The last story breaks my heart. I just had my first son 8 months ago. I couldn't even imagine leaving him all alone. Is he difficult, sometimes, but he is also wonderful. I love to look in his sweet face and realize what a miracle he is.
Parents that harm their own children are monsters.
Spot on! The first time we held our oldest, I looked down at her and said ‘I can’t imagine a single day going by and not knowing how she is, where she is!’ I looked up at my husband, who had tears running down his face, and he agreed. She is now 24 and it’s so hard to not ring her every day! We do text though. Our youngest (22f) still lives at home while going to Uni. Every time she starts talking about moving out, we start saying ‘oh no you’re not!’ and laugh. Congratulations on your precious wee one!
@@Sorchia56 thank you! I am enjoying all his moments as he grows. Children are wonderful.
@@SallySlayer409 I’m so pleased for you. It’s harder than Hades, but I wouldn’t change a thing. Some days I begged my husband to let me go back to work (Lt. Col., US Military). It was easier jumping out of planes and dodging bullets some days! I adore the wee ones as well, I wanted 6!!! 🤣🤣
Story 3: All she had to do was nothing, but instead she throws a tantrum and got into trouble with the police while trying to character assassinate OP
I Hope she got arrested,
also, I thought 90% of all Karens were supposed to be religious, don't they know that Patience is a virtue? (I'm being Sarcastic, of course those hypocrites don't know that)
Can bet she was hoping that her fuss would garner her FREE STUFF, but it didn't work out.
@@Kayenne54 it got her a free trip to the police station
@@lisafernley3810 Hopefully also a free visit with CPS, for leaving children in a car.
If she was really in a hurry, she would have been able to make her purchase and leave. Instead, she started a whole bunch of shit out of spite, probably took a while to summon the Loss prevention person, the manager AND the cops, and after all that extra waiting, had to leave empty handed escorted by police. I hope they throw the book at her and if she does have children, that they're staying with more responsible family now.
That last story reminds me of my story. Never met my grandparents on my dad's side. I went to college, got a job, and bought a house and never seen or heard from them for 26 years.....turns out they live 2 blocks away from me....
Story 4: she should get her license revoked and when others give her a ride, they should park at the end of the parking lot
Man, that last story pissed me off to hell and back. Such entitlement!
To OP in the second story, NO you didn't go too far in my opinion, someone needs to put your son's Karen teacher in her place
She really thought just because that she's a teacher she can boss anyone around, like you said her little Reign of Power and that the end of the school day
I would have after hanging up with the teacher made 3 phone calls. First one the principal of the school demanding a meeting. Second one to my lawyer to be with me there. The 3rd one would be to the local media about the this teacher's policy.
Story 2. Teacher would have to put in writing she is responsible for any act of bullying against my child or any invited guests. Bet she backpeddles real fast.
The kids party story is why I know there are rules in some schools about giving out invitations in class, however that teacher was stepping WAY out of line.
Too bad if Kid A doesn't invite you to their party. (unless you thought they were your bestie, then it'd sting). I can't recall ever caring about attending another student's party or not - and there'd have been the hassle of getting them a present (stingy stepfather) and getting a lift there and back (stingy stepfather) so it was better if I didn't, all round. Was in fact, surprised once by being invited to a girl's party whom I hardly knew. Won every prize in the little games (because they involved things I knew, or was good at), and was glared at by everyone. Not the best experience after all, ironically. Developed an allergic reaction after that to anyone handing out party invites at school. Auto refusal from me. "Dad won't take me" got me out of it all, and was probably truthful as well.
Agreed. I can understand not allowing invites to be given out during school hours, but that teacher went way too far with her, "Invite everyone in class or don't have the party" attitude.
@@MsCatstaff i saw this on another channel recently and the OP came back and said in the comments that the kids they invited were given invites off school times and grounds (texts to parents, etc ) So this time the teacher was in the wrong. A commenter on that said to send her the bill for the party ...LOL
Story #2: That teacher had no right to tell OP that she had a say on what he can and can't do for his kid at his own house.
"I'm your kid's teacher so I have every right to say what he does at your house and who he can invite to his birthday party."
Uh, no, you don't, Entitled Teacher.
I had to deal with an Entitled Teacher of my own way back in my sophomore year of high school. It was not a pleasant experience.
Story #5: So Entitled Grandmother has the nerve to show up after 25 years and demand her grandson (who she's never even met until now) needs to love her and take care of her because he's "obligated to"?
No, you crazy old bat. You don't get to show up out of the blue after 25 years and act like a loving grandmother to a young man who you never even met or make demands! You didn't even make any kind of effort to see him until that day. You were nothing but a total stranger to him, and that's all you will ever be.
Story 5; bitch, bring LOTS of money. And remember, this is just a business deal.
Story 3: This is why I always get a cart. To work as buffer between me and the person behind me.
Also nice going lady, screaming GUN will surely help you finish your shopping faster!
At that point, it was about revenge.
What a very American story. A gun in a supermarket and there is nothing weird about it because you have a permit. Wow. Also the parking permit story: in the UK that belongs to the permit owner and has their photo on it. I'm not saying they don't get abused, but the photo gives a bit of security. There is a fine of up to £1000 for abuse of the permit and it can be confiscated if the owner condoned the abuse.
Despite covid, there are people who feel the need to get right up in your personal space. Always makes me feel like they're a possible pickpocket. Carts or even a hand basket help force distance.
@@missharry5727 you have to take actual classes to get a license to carry.
Fr, sometimes I go into Warrior pose to get the required 6 ft, cuz assholes always be practically on top of me. (I usually have a ridiculously overloaded basket or full arms in a futile attempt to buy less crap.) Like, no, Covid or no Covid, gtfo!
15:04 yeah. My sister stole my grandpa's all the time. She used it until she lost it and admitted to grandpa what she did. He was pissed because he thought it had fallen out somewhere and was going through a lot of hassle to get a new one. Once he got the new one, I found the old one had been mailed back to us. We were happy it was returned and we made sure sis never touched it again.
Story 4: Here's a Great example of someone who is incapable of learning their lesson
Did that Walmart Karen seriously think making those accusations and involving management and police would get her out of the store faster? Instead of waiting a couple of more minutes for her turn, she apparently thinks it’s a good idea to dive headfirst into a pool of red tape, turning a short wait into a potentially hours-long fiasco. What an idiot.
The teacher in the first story was not well intentioned. Teachers now a day are getting to the point where they think they get a say in what happens in their students lives because they are teaching them. It would have been well intentioned if they would have left it at a suggestion to invite everyone but turning it into a decree and telling the PARENT that they will be inviting the entire class is what crosses the line from well intentioned to trying to exert authority.
@@turtles3 Ha, your right, I meant second story. Opps lol.
Yeah sadly lots of people steal handicapped placards. I keep mine in my purse and thankfully I know none of my family would do it
I have heard that "invite one, must invite all" rule is a thing in elementary schools in many school districts. Again, it is right up there with the "everyone gets a participation trophy so that no one gets their feelings hurt and their self esteem isn't dinged". And, lots and lots of other parents go ahead and let their kids invite who they want from their class ..... they just do it in such a way that their child is not doing the inviting personally ..... mom and dad mail the invitations to the other kids' homes. It's been challenged at the school board level and they can't enforce what people do outside of school hours off school grounds.
I would say that invite who you whant, do not deliver invitation in class if it's not the whole class thats invited. But if your kid is inviting the whole class except one or two I would be very suspisious.
@@Bookwright I mean maybe one or two are bullies but the opposite can also be true idk.
@@Bookwright It is entirely possible that there is one kid (or two) in the class that your child does not like ..... or bullies your child. Not a suspicious situation. Would you as an adult invite a neighbor who is a mouthy, arrogant, PIA, SOB to a cookout you have invited other neighbors to?
@@tinydancer7426 if another kid bullies mine than that is a suspisious situation. The same vice versa.
"Everyone gets a trophy just for participating" is a great way to tell the winners that there's no reward for doing well.
Entitled Grandma is insane. Did she see something on tv 25 years later that gave her the idea that Grandkids need to take care of their Grandparents and even so why not talk to the other Grandchildren she has?!? I don't understand waiting 25 years.
I can relate to OP, being that I had my son at 18 and raised him without his Dad but his Grandma did actually want to see him but her son would try to stop her so we ended up doing visits when he didn't know about it. I didn't want him to take it out on his Mom for going against his wishes but he never found out about all the happy visits she had with her Grandson.
The "grandkids are obligated..." thing made me wonder if she's Asian or Indian or something. It sounds like one of those close-knit-culture things that immigrants to the West often try to exploit when convenient for them and "enjoy the freedom" of the West to ignore when it's inconvenient. But...why this one that she's never seen before, and not the ones that are with her daughter, still, and thus presumably she knows better?
@@segevstormlord3713 Yeah, I thought it was werid that was the reason she gave for showing up. In my family it is expected for the children to take care of their parents when they get older. Not the Grandkids unless the children are unable but it almost seemed like she wanted to tell her Grandson that he had siblings that his Mom actually kept as if she was rubbing it in his face. Idk what her intentions were but they didn't seem like she just wanted to suddenly be a part of her Grandson's life. She seemed like she was trying to mess with his head and he wasn't playing those games.
Story 2: The teacher is perpetuating the erosion of parents' rights and OP was merely exercising his first amendment right to address his grievances with a government employee.
Regarding story 2: As a teacher I would never even think about forcing someone to invite the whole class to a student's party. I'm honestly surprised whenever a parent chooses to because I know it's expensive and not every kid gets along. Also I despise teachers who power trip like that lady. Like congrats you can boss around 6 year olds, oh boy you big strong grown adult. I steer clear of any teachers in my building who are like her because they're nothing but trouble.
Birthday party story, OP needs to report the teacher to the principal and/or school board. She needs to go! No telling how she's treating kids in her classroom!
Walmart story, the AP guy needs to be fired.
You know that hag is gonna take it out on the kid for having her pathetic little power trip disrupted.
I think one of the kids that wasn't invited to the party is Mrs goldbaums child
I've heard that story about the grandmother before. I totally agree with what that young man said to his grandmother. She wasn't in his life at all growing up so doesn't deserve to even call herself his grandma. Very well done to his father for raising his son from newborn alone. He clearly is a great and loving dad. If grandmother wants her grandkids to look after her in her old age then she has her other 2 grandkids her daughter had with another man.
Karen logic is like someone cheating on their significant other yet blames the significant other for cheating when they haven't.
Story 2: that teacher is the complete opposite of what a lot of teachers lately have had to deal with. My husband and MIL are both teachers. Way too often parents act like the teacher needs to be the child’s parent. This teacher was acting like she’s the child’s parent. Kids need to learn that you don’t always get included in activities. Don’t like it? Get over it!
Last story: as a mother myself I could never imagine abandoning my child, regardless of what’s going on in my life. If you think a child will be an inconvenience at this point in your life, don’t have one. At one point my husband and I knew if we had kids we’d be looking at starvation or welfare. Neither was ok. So I got on birth control.
Is there some moral phrase out there that this “grandmother” needs to hear.
Something like if you didn’t buy something, don’t expect it.
Probably something like "grandmother's retirement plan is empty because she never made an investment."
Story 5: MIL needs to just stay out of both OP and his son's lives. She and her horrid daughter are the worst to just abandon them after the son was born and MIL comes over and acts like nothing is wrong. Um, no, you had your shot and you fucked up, so leave and never come back.
Yep, "You can just stay away. That's ALL you know how to do!"
Story 2: I would report her to the higher ups at the school and possible school board.
Story 4: even if her license was revoked she would still drive and if her car got towed she'd take other peoples car
I agree that telling the teacher to f---- herself was over the top, but I still would have told her in no uncertain terms to go away and mind her own business. I'd have also filed a complaint with her principal.
Teacher needed to be told off and some people do need some colorful words to stress the point a little more clearly. Walmart, much less any other store on Boxing Day? Oh hell no!
The school story completely boggled my mind! When did "inviting all the children in your class" become a Thing? OK, I was in school a lo-oong time ago, but it was always acceptable to invite just your particular friends to a party. I'd have told that teacher to eff off right at the beginning: she *seriously* overstepped the mark!
About the teacher story:
As a Brazilian, I’d say the “go f*** yourself part was deserved and not too much.
But hey, americans call their teacher by Mr. (surname) while we call them by their first name or nickname so… I guess it’s cultural.
we would have been expelled if we did that.
I knew a Brazilian girl who was an exchange student 50+ years ago. Her dad was a high level General in your Army. Her name was Sonia, and she would be in her mid to late 70s by now. She was pretty and she had a beautiful singing voice.
australia is an 'informal culture' and I didn't see it as a big issue, either. over here you can tell someone to 'fuck off' in good nature and call them a c_nt affectionately lol
It is so funny how relatives will ignore family members that make them look bad, then pull the "but we're family" card when they need something. Kudos to the son and father for making it very clear that blood doesn't make a family, being there and supporting each other does.
The last story needed to have the guy search his ex-wife out and seek child support for all the years of sole custody, plus interest.
That was my first thought, too. Even if he didn't want it, I'm sure he could have given the amount to his son to put to good use.
Story #2. Many schools have rules like this, and honestly I think it's a good policy to try to save the uninvited kid's feelings. However, the rule is usually that invitations can only be distributed at school if the entire class is invited. If not, invitations must be distributed away from school. Of course the teacher cannot dictate who is invited, but she can decide if the invitations can be given out on school time.
So, what, are you saying that people like me should grow up not ever having anyone come over to a birthday party outside of family? If I went by that policy, I'd have never had any friends come over, since I usually only saw them in school.
I think there are two sides to this issue. On the one hand I can understand what the schools are trying to do with a rule like that, but it seems rather crudely done. It is all too easy to circumvent it by giving out the invites after school, and still leaving out a few classmates who will soon realize they were the only ones not invited. So the "mean girls" thing can still be done, just less openly.
On the other hand forcing parents to invite a whole class if they don't have the means, space, nor the child any interest to do so just for the sake of inviting one or two close friends from class seems oppressive. It feels like there should be room for negotiation.
I think there should be a happy medium, like a rule that you can invite 3-5 classmates without inviting the whole class, as then it is clearly just inviting the friend group to a smaller party, and are not in "bullying" anyone in particular by not inviting them. The moment it gets to be more than that it starts to get selective. That would also enable parents to invite a few classmates over to a single more general family/friends birthday event, thereby keeping costs down, instead of having to choose between what party to hold if any. That, a school can have it as rule that parents liaise with the teacher before the invites go out, as to which option they are choosing, and who, if just the friends option, they plan to invite. Just so that the teacher can stay aware of any issues that may occur.
The last story hurts so much! My own mother tried saying crap like that to me when I was 18 and pregnant with my oldest, but I wouldn’t listen to her. Then she tried to talk me into divorcing my husband a few months after I gave birth and telling me that she “knew” he was cheating on me because he was gone 5-10 days at a time and only home 2-4 days because of the job he had at the time.
When I was in elementary school (1950s) it was common for kids to pass out invitations for birthday parties. I never was included ! ! Even as a six year old I knew it was kinda shitty, but I always felt like a black sheep, even at home.
You aren't alone about being invited, but I didn't want to be around the kids that did have parties. I was a sickly kid, and bullied by a lot of jerks and most of the other kids were afraid to be a friend, to keep from being bullied as well. Some of those same people were upset that I didn't go to our 50 year reunion, a few years ago. I live over 1000 miles away from most of them, and the only one that I miss passed away in 2000.
@@michaelterrell I only went to my 5 year. I was bullied a lot too. Screw them all.
@@cindyjohnston535 It was fun, after I graduated. I got a lot of crap because I was really interested in Electronics. Then they had to come to the shop where I worked to have me repair their dead equipment. They didn't dare mouth off to me, if they wanted a reasonable repair time and price. 😆
@@michaelterrell I never went to any school reunions for the same reason. They didn't care about me or what I was going through so what would be the point in going somewhere I didn't belong.
@@sue1118 Indeed! I once sat through close to three hours in a dental chair as two broken teeth were removed without pain killer, while on active duty. I would rather go through that again, instead of being around people that I don't care to see again. I just felt sorry for damaging the dental chair. I bent the sides in so far that I had trouble getting out of it.
BTW, one of the very few that I wanted to see again was named Susan. Sadly,, she's been gone for about 22 years now.
In my kids' school, we aren't allowed to pass out invitations at school...for this reason. We have a list with parents names and phone numbers and we have to either mail, text or call to invite people. It makes it tedious...but I get it....
The last story reminded me of what a friend of mine calls her biological father in conversation "The DNA donor" since the parent was completely absent the whole time they don't get a title that implies they are family or in anyway related beyond genetics. She only started doing it to piss off and alienate her aunt (father's sister) who insisted on pushing her to force a relationship with her father even though her father had publicly rejected her several times and she had expressed she was done with that kind of pain and just ready to move on, but now it's just cathartic to not even think of him as her father or family in anyway other then having his DNA.
I'm so malicious I would have made 24 new invitations with ALL but the ones I wanted invited listing Mrs. Goldbaums address as the party location. Let her be shocked and when she asked the response would be "Your kids are your responsibility, right? Just seemed to be you wanted to be responsible for the party." 🤷🏾♀️
bwhahaha...thats awesome and petty...i love it
Last Story: grandson should've said I'm young and have my whole life ahead of me and old people are just an obstacle in my way.
I've heard the abandoned g-mom story a few times, it gets more ridiculous every time. Who would expect to be accepted after 25 years! The son is a savage, didn't let anyone get away with crap. Mega props to OP
19:14, If I were that grandson, I’d be livid, and heartbroken at the mother in law’s comment!20:01, Orphanage!?! Now she’s way out of line! And in front of father’s son! Unacceptable!
The son did and said the right thing to the grand mother , she was a stranger to him !
Story 3 makes me so glad that I always have my husband and I check out at the electronics section to avoid situations like that and nobody ever bothers to bat an eye.
On Story 2:
Kids need to learn that not everybody likes them, that they will inevitably be left out of certain things because of their friendships or relationships. It's something everyone has to learn. I bet Ms. Goldbaum is also the kind of person to buy participation trophies as she buys and hands them out.
Edit: My thumbs decided 'to buy' needed to be 'about', so I fixed it.
I'll bet that she had no friends when she was in school.
@@michaelterrell I can almost guarantee she was never invited to anything.
@@happydragon7095 No, I'm sure that she was invited to step off this mortal coil, more than once. 😂
You have to invite the bully to your party!!!!
@@sherylcascadden4988 Over their dead body!
Last story - Those two women are such louses. Kudos to the father for raising such a remarkable young man. He owes his "mother" and grandmother nothing, absolutely nothing.
Cat food and gun: the Karen is a real flake and evidently didn't realize that leaving her kids out in the car was illegal. The problem is that we don't know what the temperature was outside and it could have been worse if it was hot outside and you can guess what it would have been like in that car.
in the second story, op should've complied with the teacher but then should've said "fine then I get to decide who gets to come to YOUR sons birthday"
Last story-I knew when mil showed up that she was gonna want him to care for her. Unreal. 😳 The nerve of her. I’m SO glad he told her off. 😁
From zero to Karen in 2 seconds flat; My God, that's talent...
Thx for always say, “hello my wonderful beautiful friends” it makes me feel better
Me too.
Compared to the people these stories are about, even the worst of DarkFluff's fans are wonderful and beautiful.
For the party invitation one, most of my child's teachers just ask that the invites not be handed out in class. They can be handed out before or after school, or during lunch/recess.
On that last story, that grandmother PISSES ME OFF AND SO DOES THAT SO CALLED MOTHER, They are a DISGRACE to the human race.
I had to REALLY hunt for a parking spot today in handicapped parking. All of them, at the hospital, were taken. From past experience, I can't guess the number of those spaces that were taken by folks that should be in them. I had a doctor's appointment and really do wish I had the time and patience to get every single one of those jerks towed. Along with those idiots that have NO clue what those striped sections between the spaces are for as they park there too. For the record, those open areas are for folks like me to have room to load and unload our wheelchairs which we can't do if you park on those striped parts. I have no sympathy for that mother in laws' perdicament.
It' seems that Miss Goldbaum was trying to get her favorite student(s) invited to a party. Just because they're her favorites doesn't mean they're OP's favorites. Good thing it didn't work.
"He's looking at me like I'm a stranger"
Umm he has never met you and he isn't a little kid he is a full fledged adult by all standards
Story about the child's birthday. I taught school and frequently a student wanted to hand out invitations to a handful of students in the class. The (school ) rule was only that the invitations were not allowed to be handed out unless there was one for everyone.
The teacher trying to tell a father what to do in his own house was just ridiculous.
The last story was very sad. Two extremely entitled women could have destroyed both father and son. I’m glad his father was there for his boy. I started to think to myself “Some people shouldn’t have kids.”, but then I rethought my position and realized if they hadn’t there wouldn’t be this fine young man here. But yeah he owes them jack 💩. You don’t get to come back into his life and demand he take care of you. 🤬 that!
Schools actually tell you that you aren’t allowed to send birthday invitations to other kids in class to school, unless you invite the whole class ( for elementary age kids).
I know that many elementary school do not allow any invitations to be passed out in schools to avoid the hurt feelings.
But as long as her child didn't invite them while at school the school/teacher can't say squat.
the last story had no mention of child support. he ought to sue her for back support and give both of them a nest egg. it works both ways ya know! ☮️
That's a one-way street. Most courts in the US hold mothers to *much* lower standards, based on the Duluth Model.
It's a legal theory originally meant to protect domestic violence victims, but has been catastrophically oversimplified to "the woman is always right". Probably because it makes the job of a judge much easier in these messy cases. They don't have to think about it, they can just rubber-stamp half their docket away.
Last story left me shaking more than my head. Literally, my hands are shaking, my muscles are clenched... After the story about crazy Karen leaving her kids in the car, this one was just too much.
I fully expected him to tell her, "Parents are obligated to take care of their children when they're young, but she wasn't there. You weren't there, either. So... " Then add the bit from another comment: "Sorry. I'm young and have my whole life to live. I can't look after you. Taking care of an old lady would be an obstacle to my future. You understand, don't you?"
Last story If I were OP I would have filed suit against the Mother and her Husband for 25 years of child support and medical bills.
Showing the abandonment also would have made sure that her husband knew that they abandoned an infant.
I have a feeling, for the last story, the grandma came back to him cuz her daughter abandonned her and didn't want to take responsibility of taking care of her.
Story 4 about the stolen placard. As a disabled person, it's frustrating as all hell that this happens. It's painful and difficult when there's not enough spaces; add in that it's potentially not a handicapped person using those finite spaces and it turns into a kind of slap in the face. It costs money, time, effort/pain/frustration to get that placard so for it to then be stolen and used fraudulently is truly disgusting. It ends up being a double edged sword in that people become suspicious of those who use the placards since those people who "don't look disabled" are sometimes verbally or physically attacked, yet the fraudulent people who are good enough actors slide by and are accepted as disabled when they're actually not.
For the 2nd story OP should have called the school principal and complained about the teacher’s behavior.
OP should have told Ms. Goldbaum that he will invite everyone and host the party at her house instead, since it concerns her so much 😂
The last story? That young man dealt with is superbly.
As long as the kids get invited outside of school, no teacher can say anything
It always slays me how these people will blatantly lie their *sses off in front of multiple witnesses to what really happened. Do they really believe it's going to work?
Yeah! There are cameras EVERYWHERE these days.
@@cindyjohnston535 Never mind the cameras, in that third story, there were two actual human beings sitting right there who backed up the OP's version of events.
The second story: OP is so not the butthole. That overbearing Karen of a teacher needed to get taken down a few pegs. The only thing, I would be worried about, is her retaliating against OP's child because she got told no
Steal the use of a placard? Nope, you are on your own with that one lady. I am entitled to one, but have never bothered to apply, the few extra yards I may have to walk when I go shopping, is not worth the hassle of getting one. On the other hand, I see someone without a placard parking in a spot, I phone the cops.
That person was overboard. I know my brother’s elementary school had a “no party invites during/at class unless you invite the whole class” but it was never a flat out invite everyone.
My grade school had a similar rule to that teacher, but it stopped and ended at the classroom. The rule was you couldn't give out invitations in class/school unless the whole class was invited. You had to distribute them elsewhere, usually by mail. It kept kids from being blatantly excluded in front of everyone, but you still got to invite who you wanted. AND it didn't tell parents what they couldn't do in their personal lives.
That Last Story, a child that does not receive love from the village will burn it down to feel its warmth.
Handicap placards are rarely returned after the person whom they were issued to has died. Many times the Dallas city Police has done sweeps and have found 20% were for a deceased person. In our area, the majority of people that have them, drive around with them hanging in their windshield, blocking 20% of their forward view. Last year, two little girls were crossing a street corner and a woman ran over them, because she had a huge placard in her windshield.
If the person that it is for is not with you, you are breaking the law when using it.
Story 5: Op earns the Father of the year award #1 because my mum was also young when she had me and I'm forever grateful to all parents who go through thick and thin to raise their child, props to parents who love their kids despite the hardships they face #1 parent will forever know that you have my appreciation.
