Oh, you mean the same way you talked to me about abandoning me on my birthday and the family trip? I mean, I'm just following your example of how we break news to each other.
@@heffa3821Based on how the sister was described, I wouldn’t be surprised if the older sister had “borrowed” some things and that she “promises to give them back” (eventually) I would have avoided going near her room so that if things did happen to go missing, I would not have seen who had entered and therefore it wouldn’t be lying when I tell police that “I don’t know if anything was stolen. I don’t know anything other than the LONG list of names of the people I’d invited” and I’d give the police that list
I would get a copy of that tape and keep it for use in emergency. Like leaking it to every potential partner of Alex, just once a year stalk her socials, and leak it
I cant believe that Alex thought she'd get away with beating OP up. I bet she thought something dumb like you cant press charges against your family. I would have loved to have seen Alex's face when the police showed up and the school providing the proof.
Go ahead and emancipate. It will be a very hard road, but those people aren't really family anyway. Fiona's family is more family than her blood family.
Wow that's amazing. In the course of a week the sister was arrested and sentenced. Also in that week the parents gave up their parental rights. And the adoption is in the works! Never in the history of the world has the justice system moved so swiftly. Literally never.
Thats what i said. UNFORTUNATELY it is possible in two cases. A small hallmark town were EVERYONE kniws your business and the same old dude is the judge and probably the head of the cops they get that filed quickly . Or B you got MONEY money and connections. I volunteered for a courthouse and it was at BEST 9 day wait if not average was 2-5 month wait times and thats with 8 “common” courts(property disputes,assults that didn’t result in major injuries , arguing over interpretation of laws partitions for changes defending building permits ) 3 traffic and animal disputes being lumped together with over flow basically we had 17 judges that worked 7:30 to 6:40 pm and 5 judges that traveled between the four small cities around us and filled in to big city when they needed it And we were still months behind. So we were shocked by random dude in gap shirt submitting a request for buying property and rezoning it getting told yup sit down sir actual clerk calling a judge that deals with that from lunch to take him in a empty court room listen check the documents and approve it do the post for your information city of xxxxx requires this this and that we’ll send inspectors blah and out the door in an hour papers handed to court clerk to get it into the electronic filing system. Turns out dude owns huge company and invests in local politics and TECHNICALLY the judge chose to do this of his own free will cutting into his lunch brake courthouse didnt show him favoritism nope. I never looked too hard if its a complain-able offense but it also only applied to like three dudes and they were nice dudes gap dude sent us edible bouquets-not the pot the fruits cut in flowers! So we just for the mist part shrugged it off.
No kidding. Government and red tape paperwork, really. A few extra words as of a believable timeline would have made it better. Though got to admit the narrator is superior to many others.
The new parents are well connected and rich. They had prove that could put the golden child into jail for a long time. While I’m still not convinced this happened, I can see a path how this worked out.
OP should call her parent narcissistic AHs and remind them they never apologized and repented of their actions on her BD. The first thing they need to do is throw out the golden child Alex and get into therapy. Time for the child care police to be called for child abuse and neglect.
Actually I think emancipation from her DNA donors was the best thing, with adoption by a new family even better. This way she has a better family who will support her, hopefully even after she turns 18. Otherwise she'd be on her own at 15 & CPS would ditch her at 18 in most places.
CPS only likes to take really young healthy kids from decent healthy families when they get a chance, cause they can't sale off mentally scared or drug babies as easily. It's kinda why you hear how CPS is constantly called out for abused kids, but nothing's ever done. They don't want a 15 yr old who they wont be able to adopt out, they only do anything if forced to by the state and some foster homes are sometimes worse than the abusive home itself as many of them are only in it for the government $$$
Narcissists don't like accountability. They just want sex, material items, and control. That's it. That makes them great candidates for ONSs and hookups, but nothing beyond that.
These narcist parents are so dumb. The trip wasn't for your birthday even though thats what we told you. What do you mean you aren't happy we didn't even say goodbye and left you alone on your birthday with a list of chores. I question where the rest of the family is. That they aren't also trying to guilt trip op. Its funny they gave up their prenatal rights thinking this will make them look good. Their reputation is gone and i doubt they will let op get away with it. The blood sister will definitely go back for revenge. Because how did she only get community service. Seeing how the sister has a rep for bullying others and that beating she gave her and how she held her there. Also i wonder if op isn't a affair baby. Or has some secret inheritance that the parents plan on taking now that op isnt apart of the family. I bet the narcissist family plans to move away and start fresh. Because their rep is ruined. There is no way they cant paint op as the bad guy. Because clearly they left a minor home alone and they left the state to go to a spa. Like how small brained are they to not notice it.
I hope OP keeps that door shut on her failed family permanently. They'll be back crawling on their hands and knees begging OP for money, job, housing, company, or caretakers.
Yeah. They always learn, too late, that the entitled golden child will never provide them with anything and probably stick them in a crappy nursing home at best.
Those parents didn’t even have the nerve … or the guts … to face her in person to say they were NOT taking her on HER BIRTHDAY TRIP on her birthday !!! Parents let the sister (spoiled brat) have her way about anything … anything at all… no matter WHO got hurt !! I vote them them the World’s Worst Parents !!
Question: Did she ever tell them that they were always siding with Alex? Did she try to bring up what Alex was doing? It also is stupid of them that they would leave a 15 year old home alone for two weeks. What about money, food, transport? They set things up for all 4 to go which means they did not stock up for those weeks they would be gone. This is where CPS should have been called. She is 15 and still a minor, thus child abandonment.
At that point that short moment i sympathized with the parents because I too miss social cues and forget “obvious things” I’ve done 100 time because my routine altered. especially when occupied and truly believed that its possible they just really hadn’t noticed that something was up -which is why im child free that’d be awful to a child being neglected and burdened to correct my behavior no thanks-. So i was expecting it to go the way of they’re terrible parents but not the worse people but nope they’re trash. Tho i full heartedly agreed to the shes 15! Sure we now got ubereats and stores deliver but you never know who is grabbing the orders and what intentions they got. Or even your neighbors! -good tip once a year check your local predators/violent offenders website- i disagree that alics finals don’t matter they matter the most they’re the ones your colleges financial center used to risk factor you and many a student lose their scholarships or get halved because of it or even LOSE their admission due to gpa requirements.
It doesn't matter what she would say. They knew it was bad. This is why they let her sister tell her. It's gaslighting. They would never admit wrongdoing, unless desperate for their sake.
For real, I'm not surprised that the golden brat was psycho and beat op up. She was just mad that she was exposed and the consequence was her boyfriend breaking up with her. But typical that she blames op for everything. Bet it surprised her when the school stood up for op and she got charges pressed against her.
The story said that the older sister and her friends had a bad reputation, I’d be willing to bet that the parents’ influence bailed her out multiple times. But that influence was gone when it was revealed how disgusting they are If previous incidents had charges that were dropped, it would make some sense that the first time the sister was actually fully punished by the law only ended with her getting community service
The sister was in high school. Maybe that is why the legal system went "easy" on her but it was a very vicious assault by her (now ex) sister. On school property.
I think the parents took the path of least resistance and so giving into their oldest became second nature. It made their lives easier. The youngest just learned to accept it because - that was the life she was given and what else could she do? In the end, the parents reaped what they sowed.
That is terrible parents are supposed to love their children . I would have pressed the issue for the sister to have jail time and not able to participate in graduation. She should have been expelled for the rest of the school year. The school should have expelled the other students as well. Sad story
My parents had a holiday home in Wales. One summer they were planning on going, my mother brother and three sisters. But I was told that I wasn’t going and had to stay at home with my father as punishment for something I didn’t do. Best summer holiday ever and I spent my birthday with my father.
I can’t believe her own soon to be ex sister beat her up. If they had let her go on that damn trip none of this would’ve happened if they have treated them equally I’m not sure like Alex was the only one they had. I hope you press charges against Alex OP and her friends.
Yeah, but no college wants to involve themselves with someone who has a misdemeanor on their record for assault on a minor (considering that Alex sounds 18, which is considered a legal adult, and OP is 15). Bottom line, she's screwed for life.
@@bjrnericwang2093 i doubt it. I dont know how the law works in America but from OP's story, her friends didn't actually do anything to OP, thry just stood back and watched Alex. I dont think there's any punishment for just standing by and letting something happen because they could just argue they saw what Alex was doing to her own sister, who knows what she would have done to them if they tried to get involved.
@erinmaltas5648 while they didn't physically participate in the assault they did have a hand in it. They could have seen charges for being an accessory to the assault/battery of the OP. Since in the states an accessory to a crime is someone who helps to commit the offense, even if they were not actually or constructively present during its commission. Fear of the OPs sister could have influenced them to not stop her or to keep quiet though. Alot of information we don't have to know for sure
@@rarecharisma whilst there is no defined law on a minimum age to leave a child home alone for any period of time, there are laws for leaving a child at risk, of which "home alone" could be a risk, and it would be up to OPs parents to prove there was no risk in abandoning their child. Its one of those fairly rare "you're guilty until you can prove otherwise" situations. OP had already highlighted they were not comfortable being left alone, so that in itself would constitute "a risk".
I got left behind for a family vaca because of finals at high school. I was 16 and spent 3 days alone but cousins/uncle and my moms friend came iver each night to hang out with me and my friends mom made me hang out at their house the last day. Thats how normal people do stuff like that
Fiona's mom and dad are great and so is Fiona for letting her mom and dad know what was going on. they stepped up to take a young woman in when needed.
I understand what you felt. I was my parents last child, they didn't want one and my mom was encouraged to abort me because I was a serious health risk to my mother, obviously they didn't, most times I wish they had. I was left out of many things. So I get it. My sister never beat me up because, though I'm tiny, I am a good brawler. I get it.
The parents absolutely knew what they were doing was beyond crappt, why else would they sneak off, and leave OP's sister to tell OP they weren't taking her?
Ignored and treated bad her whole life, then finally offered a birthday gift, a trip then they sneak away without her. Their emails is full of lies to save their reputation with colleagues and friends. Too little to late. I know this is fiction but still never let anyone treat you like that.
Shout out to Fiona’s family for supporting and caring for this child when her own parents failed to do so! Also I’ve had parents like this and I’ve had to emancipate at 16. Shortly after my 16th I spent my sweet 16 packing my bag and getting kicked out.
Do the parents realize that abandoning a 15-year-old child at home will they let the country is considered child abandonment and they can receive up to 15 years in prison each for that crime amongst other child neglect child abuse emotional and physical each carry a set time that they will have to serve and they can be done consecutive
"if they knew you were feeling left out and neglected" How the hell did they expect you to feel when they did that?? Even if they knew nothing about how you felt before this (and that is difficult to believe) nobody would not feel absolutely betrayed with what they did there.
OMG, those parents are going to regret their favoritism. That gives leen child is a sociopath and a sycophant. They are going to regret this forever. Sweetie, because how loving and having an open and pure heart, you now have a family that loves you and the sister from your heart. Be safe he best person you can be. Your revenge is living a happy and successful live. Make yourself proud we are s bring light bing thoughts and prayers for a wonderful life also for your new parents and sister. 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
So the older sister assaulted her younger sister (the OP) in school while the older sister's friends aided and abetted? That's not a misdemeanor. That's assault with intent, battery, possibly include attempted murder in that litany of charges as well. That's also automatic expulsion with no possible way to go back. The older sister and her friends should've all been charged as adults. In fact, the school should've expelled the older sibling for that... no prom, no graduation, no re-enrolling. Now... for the parents... they're lucky CPS wasn't called on them for what they did by leaving her home alone while they and the older sister went down to the Poconos in NE PA. If the parents had brains, they would've realized that the older sister also had finals as well. They should've said, once school is done for the summer, we'll all go on vacation. Instead... they treated the OP like Cinderella. I'm glad the OP is in a better home with a better family, and I do hope the OP's former family gets their comeuppance from the OP in court.
And imagine. This wouldn’t have happened if they let her go on a vacation. Or asked their daughter “Hey. You know, finals are coming up, did you actually want to go on vacation, or study here?”
Leaving a 15yo, capable or not, alone at home while they go on a trip, regardless of reason, is totally unacceptable. Even the older sister is a minor yet she got to go. There is now way that they can be in the right here.
As with many of these, I suspect the stories are entirely fictional, but I had to admit that this kid is diabolical and I like that about her. Note to the narrator: it’s pronounced Poe-con-ohs. It’s probably a good idea to check the pronunciation of American places-they can be idiosyncratic
Okay, she is 15 yrs old. If the parents crossed state lines going to the Poconos, that is abandonment and child endangerment. Especially as they left without telling her. The sister informed her. They also let no authorization for an medical emergency.
The Birthday Girl is quite the cowardly little thing, bless her ever lovin heart. She has not retaliated any form in of physical vengeance on her older sister and sisters friends that were there watching alex and friends attempt to lill her sister. Their lack of actions to try and stop alex is a blatant admission of guilt because they were all in the wrong. They are as guilty as if they through the first fist! Patience, reconnaissance, paying attention to detail and secretly installing small, hidden security cameras that also pick up sound waves. After 2 to 4 weeks of the Birthday Girl suffering abuse at the hands of her family and recorded on the home’s security system and auto upload to her email, and prolly not usable in a court of law. However, in the court friends, coworkers, employers, and/or religious leaders, would all receive copies of them abusing their hated daughter. They would not survive the fallout as each individual watched the security records.
Who leaves a 15 yr old kid,one who just turned 15 alone for a few days an nights.Not even have someone come an check on the kid.wtf!!! What if she would have choked,fell down the steps,cracked her skull,someone breaking in knowing it's a teen alone there.Like just bad bad bad parents and parenting!!!

There are this spontaneous open party, where every youth turns up and the family- home gets thrashed - or worse, just because the parents had not been around😅 they were SO lucky, she only invited responsible adults to her stunt😂
@@elsaflood6393it might be their schools timeline is different like due to small town our proms was in January because we were fighting venue with bigger cities we had senior community outreach in April then gradnight whenever they scheduled us ie mine unfortunately fell in January while my siblings were in may the night before graduation and it’s possible if they already had the meeting scheduled and judge was in a all cases heard courtroom he could have lumped up the custody case with the assault case to be done with this family at once. Otherwise yeah they either put in MAJOR monkey to get clerk to expedite their hearing or knew a lot of someone’s.
When Opie goes no contact with her family, they are going to wonder why it’s all her fault. It’s her birthday. You promised her a trip and then you lie and say you have to stay home do chores and study.🤦♀️🤬
Wow. Just discovered this channel! What a story! Letting alone the cruelty of how they unironically uninvited her...Who leaves a just-turned 15 year old CHILD alone to go on vacation??? That right there is enough to bring CPS in, IMO, even without all the drama that followed. Never even occurred to them once in all their communications to tell her that they loved her. So telling. What kind of woman doesn't love all her children above her own life? And what kind of father doesn't protect and take care of all of his children while they still are children? I just don't understand it. 😢
Good for that young lady! Yes, there's a little bit of pettiness in the story but I think it's justified. I'm sorry she had to go through all this. Now it's time to focus on her life ahead of her and make it a great one!

@@eelchiong6709 I understand that. I was just pointing out how easy it would be to argue in a court setting that her parents aren't treating her right. My mistake for not being clear.

All good. Have a nice day.
@@eelchiong6709she can file for emancipation and still sue
Thanks for having self worth, OP. Once you get older, Please get therapy before you get into an unhealthy relationship
Having Fiona's parents to help her out, I'm sure she will have a good family foundation and a good parental role models.
I hope this young lady press charges against her sister for physical assault and battery and pushed the charges to the max
Alex got "community service". Possibly because she's 17, not 18. Depends on local laws, lawyers' skill, her parents' influence etc.
It’s super easy to say after the fact, “if you had just talked to us” . That’s just a lie. If it wasn’t, they would have asked her or told her.
Good parents would not have needed being told that their younger child was hurt ... good parents would know.
Oh, you mean the same way you talked to me about abandoning me on my birthday and the family trip?
I mean, I'm just following your example of how we break news to each other.
I wouldn't care if I got grounded, I'd let the people I invited completely trash my sisters room.
ABSOLUTELY I'M PETTY AS HELL LIKE THAT YESSSS LONG NOTHIN IS STOLEN!
@@heffa3821Based on how the sister was described, I wouldn’t be surprised if the older sister had “borrowed” some things and that she “promises to give them back” (eventually)
I would have avoided going near her room so that if things did happen to go missing, I would not have seen who had entered and therefore it wouldn’t be lying when I tell police that “I don’t know if anything was stolen. I don’t know anything other than the LONG list of names of the people I’d invited” and I’d give the police that list
Nah, nobody gets to do that but me. Yall can take the blame, though.
I would get a copy of that tape and keep it for use in emergency. Like leaking it to every potential partner of Alex, just once a year stalk her socials, and leak it
@@ebifuon6776 Brutal, but i'd approve!
I cant believe that Alex thought she'd get away with beating OP up. I bet she thought something dumb like you cant press charges against your family. I would have loved to have seen Alex's face when the police showed up and the school providing the proof.
there is no dealing with narcissists. the sob's never change.
Go ahead and emancipate. It will be a very hard road, but those people aren't really family anyway. Fiona's family is more family than her blood family.
Wow that's amazing. In the course of a week the sister was arrested and sentenced. Also in that week the parents gave up their parental rights. And the adoption is in the works! Never in the history of the world has the justice system moved so swiftly.
Literally never.
Thats what i said. UNFORTUNATELY it is possible in two cases. A small hallmark town were EVERYONE kniws your business and the same old dude is the judge and probably the head of the cops they get that filed quickly . Or B you got MONEY money and connections. I volunteered for a courthouse and it was at BEST 9 day wait if not average was 2-5 month wait times and thats with 8 “common” courts(property disputes,assults that didn’t result in major injuries , arguing over interpretation of laws partitions for changes defending building permits ) 3 traffic and animal disputes being lumped together with over flow basically we had 17 judges that worked 7:30 to 6:40 pm and 5 judges that traveled between the four small cities around us and filled in to big city when they needed it
And we were still months behind. So we were shocked by random dude in gap shirt submitting a request for buying property and rezoning it getting told yup sit down sir actual clerk calling a judge that deals with that from lunch to take him in a empty court room listen check the documents and approve it do the post for your information city of xxxxx requires this this and that we’ll send inspectors blah and out the door in an hour papers handed to court clerk to get it into the electronic filing system. Turns out dude owns huge company and invests in local politics and TECHNICALLY the judge chose to do this of his own free will cutting into his lunch brake courthouse didnt show him favoritism nope. I never looked too hard if its a complain-able offense but it also only applied to like three dudes and they were nice dudes gap dude sent us edible bouquets-not the pot the fruits cut in flowers! So we just for the mist part shrugged it off.
No kidding. Government and red tape paperwork, really. A few extra words as of a believable timeline would have made it better. Though got to admit the narrator is superior to many others.
AI still has a long ways to go.
and that's how you know it's a story
The new parents are well connected and rich. They had prove that could put the golden child into jail for a long time.
While I’m still not convinced this happened, I can see a path how this worked out.
Lol the gaslighting the family pulled.
Screw all of them. Seriously. I’m hope OP lives a happy life without them.
OP should call her parent narcissistic AHs and remind them they never apologized and repented of their actions on her BD. The first thing they need to do is throw out the golden child Alex and get into therapy. Time for the child care police to be called for child abuse and neglect.
Actually I think emancipation from her DNA donors was the best thing, with adoption by a new family even better. This way she has a better family who will support her, hopefully even after she turns 18. Otherwise she'd be on her own at 15 & CPS would ditch her at 18 in most places.
CPS only likes to take really young healthy kids from decent healthy families when they get a chance, cause they can't sale off mentally scared or drug babies as easily. It's kinda why you hear how CPS is constantly called out for abused kids, but nothing's ever done. They don't want a 15 yr old who they wont be able to adopt out, they only do anything if forced to by the state and some foster homes are sometimes worse than the abusive home itself as many of them are only in it for the government $$$
Narcissists don't like accountability. They just want sex, material items, and control. That's it. That makes them great candidates for ONSs and hookups, but nothing beyond that.
The party was genius!! Your the boss!!!!
So glad my siblings are normal parents. No way I'd let this slide my niece would have been packing her stuff
These narcist parents are so dumb. The trip wasn't for your birthday even though thats what we told you. What do you mean you aren't happy we didn't even say goodbye and left you alone on your birthday with a list of chores. I question where the rest of the family is. That they aren't also trying to guilt trip op.
Its funny they gave up their prenatal rights thinking this will make them look good. Their reputation is gone and i doubt they will let op get away with it. The blood sister will definitely go back for revenge. Because how did she only get community service. Seeing how the sister has a rep for bullying others and that beating she gave her and how she held her there.
Also i wonder if op isn't a affair baby. Or has some secret inheritance that the parents plan on taking now that op isnt apart of the family.
I bet the narcissist family plans to move away and start fresh. Because their rep is ruined. There is no way they cant paint op as the bad guy. Because clearly they left a minor home alone and they left the state to go to a spa. Like how small brained are they to not notice it.
I hope OP keeps that door shut on her failed family permanently. They'll be back crawling on their hands and knees begging OP for money, job, housing, company, or caretakers.
Yeah. They always learn, too late, that the entitled golden child will never provide them with anything and probably stick them in a crappy nursing home at best.
Those parents didn’t even have the nerve … or the guts … to face her in person to say they were NOT taking her on HER BIRTHDAY TRIP on her birthday !!! Parents let the sister (spoiled brat) have her way about anything … anything at all… no matter WHO got hurt !!
I vote them them the
World’s Worst Parents !!
Question: Did she ever tell them that they were always siding with Alex? Did she try to bring up what Alex was doing? It also is stupid of them that they would leave a 15 year old home alone for two weeks. What about money, food, transport? They set things up for all 4 to go which means they did not stock up for those weeks they would be gone. This is where CPS should have been called. She is 15 and still a minor, thus child abandonment.
15 year old are old enough to be home alone. As to the parents leaving OP alone for two weeks w/o OP knowing it is messed up.
At that point that short moment i sympathized with the parents because I too miss social cues and forget “obvious things” I’ve done 100 time because my routine altered. especially when occupied and truly believed that its possible they just really hadn’t noticed that something was up -which is why im child free that’d be awful to a child being neglected and burdened to correct my behavior no thanks-. So i was expecting it to go the way of they’re terrible parents but not the worse people but nope they’re trash. Tho i full heartedly agreed to the shes 15! Sure we now got ubereats and stores deliver but you never know who is grabbing the orders and what intentions they got. Or even your neighbors! -good tip once a year check your local predators/violent offenders website- i disagree that alics finals don’t matter they matter the most they’re the ones your colleges financial center used to risk factor you and many a student lose their scholarships or get halved because of it or even LOSE their admission due to gpa requirements.
@@rarecharismait IS legal if the minor knows, is prepared, AND has someone checking in on them. Otherwise, it’s ch8ld abandonment.
I don’t think you need to be told leaving one of your minor children out of a FAMILY VACATION is wrong in many ways…
It doesn't matter what she would say. They knew it was bad. This is why they let her sister tell her. It's gaslighting. They would never admit wrongdoing, unless desperate for their sake.
Misdemeanor? Really? That was full out A&B. Felony. And Alex's friends should have been charged with aiding and abetting.
"Alex herself was upset" and "good big sister"? WHAT A CROCK!
For real, I'm not surprised that the golden brat was psycho and beat op up. She was just mad that she was exposed and the consequence was her boyfriend breaking up with her. But typical that she blames op for everything. Bet it surprised her when the school stood up for op and she got charges pressed against her.
@@onepieceisking5493 Yep and I'd have given a kot to see the look on her face when she realized she'd lost.
CPS should have been called by one of the adults at the party.
emphasis is on the 'po' "PO-kun-ose". a lot of names around here are hard to pronounce. some are worse than others.
Are you also from PA? Lol I thought I was going crazy hearing her pronounce Poconos while seeing the spelling.
Should have been charged with assult.
The sister did not get in nearly enough trouble legally as she should have. She Should have got assault charges and sent to juvy.
The story said that the older sister and her friends had a bad reputation, I’d be willing to bet that the parents’ influence bailed her out multiple times. But that influence was gone when it was revealed how disgusting they are
If previous incidents had charges that were dropped, it would make some sense that the first time the sister was actually fully punished by the law only ended with her getting community service
The sister was in high school. Maybe that is why the legal system went "easy" on her but it was a very vicious assault by her (now ex) sister. On school property.
If I was op I would tell the rest of the family for the abuse by her sister and parents and make sure to go no contact
Oh. I take shit that never happened for 100 dollars, Alex.
🤣 I came across this video 3 days old. And it starts off with "So, 3 days ago...". 🤣
I hope they took pictures of her injuries as proof and evidence. I’m glad the school backed you up OP
I think the parents took the path of least resistance and so giving into their oldest became second nature. It made their lives easier. The youngest just learned to accept it because - that was the life she was given and what else could she do? In the end, the parents reaped what they sowed.
That is terrible parents are supposed to love their children . I would have pressed the issue for the sister to have jail time and not able to participate in graduation. She should have been expelled for the rest of the school year. The school should have expelled the other students as well. Sad story
I hope OP got checked out at a hospital. That is also useful evidence, but I am more concerned at the possible serious damage done to her.
Gosh, I hope she sends more updates. I can’t believe some people could be so cruel especially a close family member
If they think this is overreacting, they're hypocrites and self-centered tyrants
My parents had a holiday home in Wales. One summer they were planning on going, my mother brother and three sisters. But I was told that I wasn’t going and had to stay at home with my father as punishment for something I didn’t do. Best summer holiday ever and I spent my birthday with my father.
Thumbs up to you. 😊
Can we just give an applause to Fiona and her GOAT parents, being genuinely good people that help a child that isn't even theirs
I can’t believe her own soon to be ex sister beat her up. If they had let her go on that damn trip none of this would’ve happened if they have treated them equally I’m not sure like Alex was the only one they had. I hope you press charges against Alex OP and her friends.
Crazy story. It’s insane teens can attack people like that and receive ZERO jail time. Monstrous!
Yeah, but no college wants to involve themselves with someone who has a misdemeanor on their record for assault on a minor (considering that Alex sounds 18, which is considered a legal adult, and OP is 15). Bottom line, she's screwed for life.
Wonder if Alex's friends got something for their involvement?
@@bjrnericwang2093 i doubt it. I dont know how the law works in America but from OP's story, her friends didn't actually do anything to OP, thry just stood back and watched Alex. I dont think there's any punishment for just standing by and letting something happen because they could just argue they saw what Alex was doing to her own sister, who knows what she would have done to them if they tried to get involved.
@erinmaltas5648 while they didn't physically participate in the assault they did have a hand in it. They could have seen charges for being an accessory to the assault/battery of the OP. Since in the states an accessory to a crime is someone who helps to commit the offense, even if they were not actually or constructively present during its commission. Fear of the OPs sister could have influenced them to not stop her or to keep quiet though. Alot of information we don't have to know for sure
No-one at the party had a problem with leaving a 15 year old home alone?
Really? 15 year old are old enough to be home alone
@@rarecharisma whilst there is no defined law on a minimum age to leave a child home alone for any period of time, there are laws for leaving a child at risk, of which "home alone" could be a risk, and it would be up to OPs parents to prove there was no risk in abandoning their child. Its one of those fairly rare "you're guilty until you can prove otherwise" situations. OP had already highlighted they were not comfortable being left alone, so that in itself would constitute "a risk".
Probably not until OP revealed that her parents would not, in fact, be showing up. And why. Then this would have formed a part of their concern.
Not in a country with guns and rapists @@rarecharisma
I got left behind for a family vaca because of finals at high school. I was 16 and spent 3 days alone but cousins/uncle and my moms friend came iver each night to hang out with me and my friends mom made me hang out at their house the last day. Thats how normal people do stuff like that
😂😂😂😂😂😂people call me cruel, because I don’t know how to forgive, in the end I realize people are just mad that I don’t fell for gaslight it.
Fiona's mom and dad are great and so is Fiona for letting her mom and dad know what was going on. they stepped up to take a young woman in when needed.
I understand what you felt. I was my parents last child, they didn't want one and my mom was encouraged to abort me because I was a serious health risk to my mother, obviously they didn't, most times I wish they had. I was left out of many things. So I get it. My sister never beat me up because, though I'm tiny, I am a good brawler. I get it.
Oh child, get away from the toxic people. Run fast. Never forgive them.
That's a good idea: leave the person alone at home after years of abusing them. They're lucky the home was still standing.
...Isnt that literally child abuse? To leave a minor for who knows how long? She couldve probably called child protective services on them?
What?! There weren’t ANY adults associated with the school anywhere around, or within earshot of the beating?
The parents absolutely knew what they were doing was beyond crappt, why else would they sneak off, and leave OP's sister to tell OP they weren't taking her?
Not a single adult insisted on staying with her, or taking her home with them.
Bunch of pretty heartless people.
Ignored and treated bad her whole life, then finally offered a birthday gift, a trip then they sneak away without her. Their emails is full of lies to save their reputation with colleagues and friends. Too little to late. I know this is fiction but still never let anyone treat you like that.
Shout out to Fiona’s family for supporting and caring for this child when her own parents failed to do so! Also I’ve had parents like this and I’ve had to emancipate at 16. Shortly after my 16th I spent my sweet 16 packing my bag and getting kicked out.
The first O in Poconos has the stress on it o/.
That poor baby. I'm so glad she got out.
I hope the coworkers find out what Alex did and how the parents stuck up for her
I need to write one of these short fiction stories. I took a class on creative writing when I was in college.
Do the parents realize that abandoning a 15-year-old child at home will they let the country is considered child abandonment and they can receive up to 15 years in prison each for that crime amongst other child neglect child abuse emotional and physical each carry a set time that they will have to serve and they can be done consecutive
The World's Smallest Violins 👌🏻🎻👌🏻🎻👌🏻🎻👌🏻 for Alex and bio - *_«“parents”»_*
😂😂😂
"if they knew you were feeling left out and neglected"
How the hell did they expect you to feel when they did that??
Even if they knew nothing about how you felt before this (and that is difficult to believe) nobody would not feel absolutely betrayed with what they did there.
dang Alex got it easy for beating up Op , she should have been stayed in prison for at least 5+ years
If that was Alex’s birthday present taken back, Alex, that’s not a birthday present that’s a throw in your face I get to have fun and you don’t
I wished i had done so in my teens
Well done OP
OMG, those parents are going to regret their favoritism. That gives leen child is a sociopath and a sycophant. They are going to regret this forever. Sweetie, because how loving and having an open and pure heart, you now have a family that loves you and the sister from your heart. Be safe he best person you can be. Your revenge is living a happy and successful live. Make yourself proud we are s bring light bing thoughts and prayers for a wonderful life also for your new parents and sister. 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Poe kuh nose. If you've ever seen DIRTY DANCING, that's where it was supposedly set.
No caring parent leaves a child at home alone on their birthday. Screw them
So the older sister assaulted her younger sister (the OP) in school while the older sister's friends aided and abetted? That's not a misdemeanor. That's assault with intent, battery, possibly include attempted murder in that litany of charges as well. That's also automatic expulsion with no possible way to go back. The older sister and her friends should've all been charged as adults. In fact, the school should've expelled the older sibling for that... no prom, no graduation, no re-enrolling.
Now... for the parents... they're lucky CPS wasn't called on them for what they did by leaving her home alone while they and the older sister went down to the Poconos in NE PA. If the parents had brains, they would've realized that the older sister also had finals as well. They should've said, once school is done for the summer, we'll all go on vacation. Instead... they treated the OP like Cinderella.
I'm glad the OP is in a better home with a better family, and I do hope the OP's former family gets their comeuppance from the OP in court.
And everyone clapped...
And imagine. This wouldn’t have happened if they let her go on a vacation. Or asked their daughter “Hey. You know, finals are coming up, did you actually want to go on vacation, or study here?”
Leaving a 15yo, capable or not, alone at home while they go on a trip, regardless of reason, is totally unacceptable. Even the older sister is a minor yet she got to go. There is now way that they can be in the right here.
God bless Fiona and her parents. Hang on to them.
Fionas parents are amazing!
As with many of these, I suspect the stories are entirely fictional, but I had to admit that this kid is diabolical and I like that about her. Note to the narrator: it’s pronounced Poe-con-ohs. It’s probably a good idea to check the pronunciation of American places-they can be idiosyncratic
Okay, she is 15 yrs old. If the parents crossed state lines going to the Poconos, that is abandonment and child endangerment. Especially as they left without telling her. The sister informed her. They also let no authorization for an medical emergency.
You know what they say about Karma!!!!!😂😂😂😂
I hope OP takes Fiona's family's last name when they adopt her. She might consider changing her first and middle names too. 100% fresh start. 😊
The Birthday Girl is quite the cowardly little thing, bless her ever lovin heart. She has not retaliated any form in of physical vengeance on her older sister and sisters friends that were there watching alex and friends attempt to lill her sister. Their lack of actions to try and stop alex is a blatant admission of guilt because they were all in the wrong. They are as guilty as if they through the first fist! Patience, reconnaissance, paying attention to detail and secretly installing small, hidden security cameras that also pick up sound waves. After 2 to 4 weeks of the Birthday Girl suffering abuse at the hands of her family and recorded on the home’s security system and auto upload to her email, and prolly not usable in a court of law. However, in the court friends, coworkers, employers, and/or religious leaders, would all receive copies of them abusing their hated daughter. They would not survive the fallout as each individual watched the security records.
Child abandonment. She should have called the police.
0:20 it’s pronounced poke-a-nose. But to be fair I like the way you say it better
Alex can't sit for finals? I thought the story said at the start that she had already had hers.
This is a tale spun from straw.
Poke-Oh-Nos
Those native America names can be tricky. I’m from Islip NY. The amount of people who are stunned when it’s pronounced I slip.
@@jessdeeschulthz2427lol but Poconos is literally spelled how it sounds.
Who leaves a 15 yr old kid,one who just turned 15 alone for a few days an nights.Not even have someone come an check on the kid.wtf!!! What if she would have choked,fell down the steps,cracked her skull,someone breaking in knowing it's a teen alone there.Like just bad bad bad parents and parenting!!! No 15 yr old is old enough or mature enough to play house by themselves for days
There are this spontaneous open party, where every youth turns up and the family- home gets thrashed - or worse, just because the parents had not been around😅 they were SO lucky, she only invited responsible adults to her stunt😂
hate to say but the time line between the assault and the sister getting community service seems a bit off
And OP has still the remaining two weeks to study for their exam. Idk what world they live in.
@@elsaflood6393it might be their schools timeline is different like due to small town our proms was in January because we were fighting venue with bigger cities we had senior community outreach in April then gradnight whenever they scheduled us ie mine unfortunately fell in January while my siblings were in may the night before graduation and it’s possible if they already had the meeting scheduled and judge was in a all cases heard courtroom he could have lumped up the custody case with the assault case to be done with this family at once.
Otherwise yeah they either put in MAJOR monkey to get clerk to expedite their hearing or knew a lot of someone’s.
In America, you have the right to a speedy trial. You CAN expedite that.
Super heroes exist and they are adopting you.
When Opie goes no contact with her family, they are going to wonder why it’s all her fault. It’s her birthday. You promised her a trip and then you lie and say you have to stay home do chores and study.🤦♀️🤬
You can’t have a golden child without a scapegoat. They just want their scapegoat back and bully her into fixing their reputation
Op traded up for sure, may they find only success and may their family find failure their constant companion
Wow. A real narrator. Wooohoo. Subscribed. 😊
it was so refreshing listening to a story being voiced by a real person instead of some AI that often can't properly pronounce some words.
Wow. Just discovered this channel! What a story!
Letting alone the cruelty of how they unironically uninvited her...Who leaves a just-turned 15 year old CHILD alone to go on vacation??? That right there is enough to bring CPS in, IMO, even without all the drama that followed. Never even occurred to them once in all their communications to tell her that they loved her. So telling.
What kind of woman doesn't love all her children above her own life? And what kind of father doesn't protect and take care of all of his children while they still are children?
I just don't understand it. 😢
Its absolutely wild theres parents, normal hard working parents that do this to their kids
Good for that young lady! Yes, there's a little bit of pettiness in the story but I think it's justified. I'm sorry she had to go through all this. Now it's time to focus on her life ahead of her and make it a great one!
