@@leuqetsniksoh8590 It’s a super popular Reddit story where OP’s golden child brother Dan made OP’s life hell since his parents always sided with Dan, even Dan’s wife wasn’t any better as she was directly toxic with the OP. At some point, the OP was kicked out of his house, and when the OP made a living for himself, his family tracked him down and tried to take his new house, saying that they need the extra space for Dan’s family since they were still living with OP’s parents. OP stood his ground and refused to hand over his house, so the family tried everything in the book to try and take the house from OP with no success. Most notably, they kept trying to manipulate the OP by saying stuff like “Do It For Dan! He’s your brother!” repeatedly, but it never works and they made themselves look like fools. The sheer absurdity of their entitlement was so entertaining that their manipulation tactics became a meme in the community for stories involving golden children trying to use their biased family to take everything from their siblings.
@leuqetsniksoh8590It’s a story where a guy had to move out because of his golden child brother, Dan, and finally gets a house after struggling for years, but then his family comes back, demanding his house for Dan and his pregnant wife and three kids, and would justify it by saying “do it for Dan”
It is actually terrifying how often kids are thrown to the sharks to make space for another child's mistakes. Then the entitlement that follows when that neglected child succeeds. The truth is most of the time the neglected child never gets a chance to make anything if their life so these stories are rare but still do happen.
In the UK that would be legal. That being said, the US has plenty of states where marrying someone older is legal. aka child marriage laws. Thankyou to the republicans for that s**t sandwich.
One of my former clients was impregnated at 13 by her 24 year old boyfriend. And then again at 15. They are still married to this day!!! I had a very hard time remaining non-judgmental because it seemed like they had a good marriage otherwise. But, where were HER parents when this happened? My guess is they didn’t want to cause controversy and drama and ruin their reputation. My client had major alcohol issues that were compromising her health at only 38. Just an unfortunate situation all around.
Thats called the romeo and juliet clause. You habe to be in a specific age range [i think up to 4 years older than you if you are 16] for a relationship to be considered "Legal" between a minor and an "adult".
Exactly. What kind of a moron knows that their place is being broken into and goes there without calling the cops first no matter who they think the assailants are? If nothing else simply to leave a record of B&E for the cops to note later. I've seen this same plot element in multiple stories on channels like these, and everytime they wait UNTIL they get there to call the cops. Just not even remotely realistic, as if these characters have zero basical self preservation instincts.
@@mnomadvfx Some people are hopelessly naïve. Especially due to being saccharine. If they were not then the world would be a much better place. The most trival reason being religion would be much less common.
It’s incredibly inspiring to see how you overcame such a difficult childhood and managed to build a life for yourself. Stay strong and keep your boundaries firm. Your achievements are truly commendable!
They must have thought that after all these years their son would still be the easy manipulated kid that they threw out. But people DO in fact change. Their biggest mistake was not seeing that or even taking note of those changes until it was something that benefited them.
@@Tux730 I get what you are saying but if not a fan of weapons the other 2 choices will help. The cameras for proof of events and the no trespassing signs to add they don't want anyone in their property.
@@Josh2XL I get what your saying a child shouldn't be denied love and affection the thing is she hid her mother's affair. No child wants to see their parents split or fight I get that though the OP has every right to feel how he feels by both betrayals his wife's cheating and the daughter hiding the secret. It's like if you got cheated and the people you loved knew and kept it from you would you keep loving them or need time to trust them again I'm not saying your wrong or just my opinion OP is NTA.
Story 2. Why the hell he is "big ah" i mean i understand that he shouldn't do it the way he did but his kid were ~~16... She hided it because one parent would hate her so she chose cheating parent insted of faithfull...
Exactly I start considering 15/16 old enough to know the consequences of your actions and being mature to understand it as well. If she was 17 after they divorced for a year then she was atleast 15/16. She knew what she was doing and she understood to by deciding to hide it
You never know those people were probably cheaters or ones that hide it from there parents 😂, besides that you'd be surprised most people easily forgive most people til 20ish sayin they still kids its sickening. They'd hold their hands and not let them suffer consequences
The last one I remember hearing I don't get why people call that guy an asshole if I remember that's the story where a woman who was old enough to know what was going on hit a marriage because I didn't want to ruin our family but it did one comment literally said you are the asshole she was just trying to keep her family together she did nothing wrong basically what the person was saying was it's okay if your wife cheats and your daughter hides it from you you're not supposed to get mad
Yeah he's NTA and the daughter should've put her morals first rather than hiding the affair it just shows she favors the cheater. I'm glad the two are going to get therapy maybe we will get an update on the therapy session
The father is being called the a-hole because he was being a hypocrite, either it is fine or it isn't. Although I'm glad he moved past it, I do think the dad would be perfectly justified to continue being upset that his daughter didn't come forward with what she knew but telling her "it's alright" when it isn't does make him the a-hole for that situation.
@@maraudentium2607 Imagine going through life and then you find out. Oh Hey, my daughter knew our marriage was over because her mom was cheated on me and she knew, but because she didn't want to break up our family. She hit it for me. She knew d*** well that her father would have left her mother. But she hid it. And yes, he might get better and forgive her. But that pain is still there.
It's not your fault it's your parents and sisters fault because they are neglecting him and kicked him out of the house and that's not right and they should pay for their actions and go to hell for what they have done to him and if you guys can't see that then you guys are delusional and they don't deserve anything for neglecting and kicked him out of the house.
Story 2: So the bray hid her mother affair from and is crying now that OP does not love her as much as before?? She is almost an adult. She knew what she was doing and now has to deal with the consiquences.
There is so many problems in story 1. No I’m not saying fake, I’m just saying problems as in so many things to individually unpack and nitpick that gets you thinking
I don't doubt that it happened But i think that it is either being documented by a third party trying to show it from a first person perspective, or is an AI generated story using some rumors as the basis
The OP literally says that the parents own a factory and yet they can't afford anything but a tiny house. Either the redditors are lazy writers or the channel owner is.
@@mnomadvfx they probably own only like a small scale car workshop, which probably was inherited So not all that out of touch, but things like that, are what make me think that this was written by a third party
In story 1, this kind of thing happens all the time, and it blows my mind how entire families can gang up on one member. And against one's own child or twin? That's insane to me. But you make a good point, a lot of the little details kept changing throught the course of the storytelling (ages, length of time from Event A to Event B or Event C). Could be one of 3 things: 1) This nightmare 100% happened to the redditor but wanted to tweak little inconsequential details to make it truly anonymous but they lost track of the changes; 2) some of the events actually happened, and rhe redditor created a very loose semi-autobiographical story; or 3) the entire thing is 100% a work of fiction (either by AI or an imaginative redditor) about a horrible, heartbreaking situation that unfortunately a lot of kids find themselves in due to crappy parenting and/or narcissistic siblings. Some people just don't deserve to be parents.
@@superb3872 exactly I'm still getting tired of people trying to assume that it's a good excuse for children to keep that type of information from their parents. If anything the person that was cheating is the one that broke the family up but in actuality is the person that's cheating. Also she's 17 more than likely the mother was giving her stuff to keep her mouth shut it wasn't the fact that she was trying to keep her family together the mother was probably paying her off.
@oneuup2490 exactly keeping that kind of information a parent is inexcusable, if one parent is stepping out of the marriage an a child knows of it he should inform the other parent immediately and leave it to the adults how to handle that moving forward , chances are the child would torment himself with that kind of information and might lose the betrayed parent if it ever came to light that he hid the affair.
@@superb3872 A kid with abusive parents or parent in this case can normalize getting beat black and blue by their parents and never realize how problematic it was for years. I know ppl hate cheating but why is this any different from other forms of manipulation or abuse that parents can place on their kids?
She was like 14/15 when that was happening. I don’t think that she was mature enough to make a decision like that knowing her worst nightmare is breaking her family apart or her family being broken up with
Families are not worth the effort. And if you are being judged it's because you have done something wrong and to be honest this sounds like a Harry Potter story
OP is so naive for not taking actions for security earlier. And for letting his family into his house. And posting about his house on Facebook. And not moving to another city. And for not letting them inside again. And not getting a restraining order immediately.
kicked out at 16... worked hard for 12 years to get a house...= 28 years old. Proceeds to 6 minutes in when he said that his parents were surprised he got a house at 35. Instant credibility lost at that moment. don't care to listen to the rest of it.
What? Why is the father being blamed here? She's 17. I'm not gonna tell you about my sister, but she did some insane shit when she was 17. 17 year olds are old enough to articulate situations.
Thank you man i was thinking the same thing. She did choose she chose her mother and everyone talking shit on the father would of been the same way. He said it was ok and he treated im willin to bet he still provided and showed love but yea some wounds take time to heal.
@@mari-mari-yasno exactly, also on top of that, just because some people are mature enough to handle a tough situation like that I would say the vast majority aren't even mature enough to handle that type of situation as an adult.
Yeah, she was 16 at the time of the affair, that's not a child. I remember being 16, and you are responsible for your decisions. Her mom messed with her head saying to keep it secret, or it would destroy the marriage. The kid should have known that the affair destroyed the marriage, the covering up would just delay the inevitable break up of the family.
but sometimes you cant handle the pressure this is what some people fail to realize 16 you starting to know things but you don't complete know how to handle somethings and in this situation kinda feel bad for the daughter cause she probably knows if she tells her dad about the affair her mom probably wont ever contact or talk to her again and it will ruin the relationship between the daughter and mother this is an example how people can manipulate you without you realizing and shes not 18 yet shes still a minor so it's easier to manipulate you as a 16 year old beginning to learn stuff instead of a 18 year which know a little more stuff or a 21 year old who probably knows what to do
@@Typical.Christopherexactly like I don’t get people who say that a 16 year old is mature enough to know what to do. Not even 18 year olds are mature enough to handle certain situations let alone a 16 year old
lol it’s great to see everyone else got the “ do it for Dan “ copy pasta “ male 28” later in the story “ my parents couldn’t believe I got a house on my own at 35” :/
Story 1: makes me pissed because there are people out there struggling with infertility while people like that are disgusting to their child. That’s sad. I’m sorry you had to go through that.
This is like “Do it for Dan”. Still amazing story and I mostly feel the same way. I feel bad for the kids, as they are so young, they probably didn’t understand what their parents are doing. They basically saw you attack their parents, and the 14yo attacked you. But I feel so bad for you, and hate the sister and BIL. Even though the kids punishment was harsh and was mostly because of their parents, you still did the right thing. So sorry you had to deal with this.
Exactly, you don't just open the door like that. If people force their way in without an invitation you call the cops no matter who they are. The OP literally describes his BIL as a junkie - no way anyone would let a junkie in the house they just bought and will likely still be paying off for years. Not in a million years. Seriously the people that write these stories come from an alternate reality where people react in the opposite way to everything, like thinking they are an AH for things that are perfectly reasonable responses just because people they DON'T like are trying to guilt them 🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂
Your brother in law should be arrested for knocking up a 16 year old not only is that technically praying on a minor is a also a felony to sleep with minors and (Even with consent) counts as rape
I know this is fake but damn! I knew a cool boy in high school who found himslef in similar situation with a professional single mom. Sadly he couldn't survive homeless at 16 yo and took himslef out.
I disagree, what 14/15 year old is mature enough to make a decision that could break her family apart? Not even 18 year olds are mature enough for certain situations let alone a 14/15 year old
@@ilvenia_ Once you side with the cheater, you are the cheater. Anything but immediate disclosure of cheater´s affair is treachery of the highest calibre. I would never forgive that. Never!
The amount of abuse throughout this story, makes it so unbearable to watch. I feel really bad for OP, god if his parents didn’t want him, just give him up for adoption to a better family. I would have flipping called the cops straight away and definitely have gone to relatives.
Do it for Dan is back! Edit: imagine the people who open the comments and see everyone talking about ‘do it for Dan’ and their just like “wtf?” cause they haven’t watched it lol.
Story 2. This daughter found out at 13 didn't say anything for 3 years. B.S. there's accountability even at her age. Either she should have told the mom I "know, and won't keep your secret". Shit or get of the pot.
@@b-trunksed5902There have been stories where the minor child told the other parent that the spouse is cheating. Ot course, that kid is usually male telling his father that his mother was cheating.
@@b-trunksed5902 dude, 17 is no child. Also, like when parents "take no side" by not stopping the bully sibling enable the bad behavior, here the daughter did the same. She covered for a cheater. She betrayed her father. It's despicable.
Wow, they have some really quick courts. All three of them were tried in a week. I guess that must be thanks to the same time warp that allowed the son to be 14 years old when he would have been born a little over 11 years ago.
2nd story he's not wrong for accepting the gift but he's wrong for saying it's ok. She's old enough to know right from wrong and she hid her mother's affair.
The dad in the second story is NTA. Even if the daughter was 15 maybe 14 basically a freshman or sophomore in highschool. she would still know right from wrong. Shes not a damn child. She kept it a secret for a year. Even if she "didnt want to split the family" it was morally wrong and she knew it. What he taught her is "hey its okay to keep secrets that harm people cause its not your fault. Your not the one who did it, so even though you know who and how long your not at fault!" I guarantee she probably still spends the weekends with her mom as well
Honestly the 14yr old didn’t deserve getting caught in the crossfire, he’s a kid and thought his dad was in danger, but either way, sucks he got caught with teaching his awful parents a lesson
But still, his needs to learn how to back out for his own good before it too late. His the one who choose to follow his father crime and his the one that choose to hit the guy.
Story 2: everyone keeps attacking the child when she was probably being emotionally blackmailed, i mean where did the idea of “this will ruin our family” come from? The mom was probably emotionally abusing her to keep her quiet, which is why she feel guilty, if she kept it on her own she would feel less guilty because it was her choice, but she was forced into keeping quiet, at least thats how it comes across to me
The first story... I mean... the answer to "Our house is too small for so many people." is obviously ... "You have a backyard. Buy a tent." If OP can live in a tent as a teenager in freezing weather, so can they. I mean, the sister is the important one... right?
In the first story the OP should tell all relatives what have happened now. Chances are the parents still aren't so people think everything is fine. In the second story most commenters are only guessing the daughter's age. But one commenter needs to know that by choosing to keep it a secret she chose the mom's side.
Second story is defo not the jerk, some people are just too sensitive, father and daughter, but still, a 17 year old should know what's right and wrong, where's r/common sense?
Those saying shame on you for being mad at his daughter who hid her mothers affair. No just no. If my child ever betrayed me like that unless theyre under the age of 10 and cannot understand the actions I will in my heart never forgive them
That last story rlly hit me Like I feel bad for both em but that dad was such a ah in that situation But I’m so glad he saw his mistake and came right of it
Story 2: Well done dude I think u did wrong by rejecting ur daughters Father’s Day gift but since u realised ur mistake and had a good day with her at the end of it I think she cud forgive u.
These enabler responses to story 2 are hilarious. You know what I'd do if I discovered an affair? Tell the other person immediately. Being 16 years old doesn't mean you don't understand basic decency. She knew, she did nothing. She isn't a helpless victim of her mother's affair, she is complicit. Not only was he cheated on, the one person who should've had his back stuck a knife into it instead. "Oh, but she was afraid of breaking her family!" At 16 you have enough self-control to put your feelings aside and do the right thing. Not being an adult isn't a free pass to betray your family in one of the most painful ways possible.
ok but genuine W son? blud survived in the cold, lived in a house full with rodents and baked all day, learned mechanism and plumbed houses, and did a job for 10 years. bro is the definition of "im still standing" 😭🙏
the math isn´t adding up in the 1st story, so he was kicked out at 16 because his sister was pregnant and they say he got a house at 35 years old so her oldest son should be 19 not 14 edit: maybe 18 beacause of the pregnancy time
yup, noticed that mistake as well... at most if he was 16 when his sister was pregnant then he would have been 30 (maybe 31 depending on birthdates) at the time with a 14 y/o nephew
Story 2: The comments saying how the daughter could choose a side, but she did, in fact, choose a side. Not telling the father about the affair is her choosing. It all blew up in her face, while everyone saying it's not her fault is wrong. It's partly her fault.
