Woman Abandons Her BF And His Teen Daughter 300 Miles Away From Home After They Hijack A Road Trip She Was Planning With Her Own Kids
Entitled male Karen and his entitled teen daughter got what they deserved
A road trip that was supposed to be about one mom and her two sons quickly turned into a mess when her boyfriend and his teenage daughter pushed their way into the plan.
The woman had already organized the trip, but her boyfriend, Dave, and his daughter, Ann, made themselves part of it and then acted like the whole thing revolved around them. What started as a family getaway turned into a long, frustrating drive filled with tension, bad behavior, and a decision that left everyone arguing.
By the time they were hundreds of miles from home, she had reached her limit. Was she wrong to leave them behind?
OP asks:
RedditShe has two young boys and is in a relationship with "Dave." He is 17 years older than she is and has a teen daughter.
RedditOP had planned a trip with her sons, but Dave forced himself and his daughter into it.
Reddit
Dave's teen daughter, Ann, did everything she could to ruin the trip for everyone.
Reddit
OP finally snapped.
Reddit
She left them at a car rental company, 800 miles away from home. She asks if what she did was wrong.
Reddit
Redditors would have done the same.
Reddit
That trip was already doomed by the time they hit the road.
OP says that the rest of the trip was great.
Reddit
Some Redditors believe OP should have kicked them out on the first day.
Reddit
One commenter thinks the warning signs were there from the start.
Even autistic people wouldn't behave like Ann, and they really suffer in noisy environments.
Reddit
Dave and Ann knew what they were getting themselves into.
Reddit
Ann wasn't interested in taking a trip, that's for sure.
Reddit
And she is old enough to understand some things.
Reddit
Dave did no parenting whatsoever.
Reddit
Ann was actually being rewarded.
Reddit
This Redditor has a point.
Reddit
This one too...
Reddit
Ah, the age difference issue finally popped up.
Reddit
Yeah, this way the revenge is much sweeter.
Reddit
Good question:

Fun things vs. emergencies

OP was dating an entitled male Karen, with an even more entitled teen daughter who had grown accustomed to her daddy buying her love. She probably never heard the word “no” from him.
Parents, if you think that will buy your kids’ love, you are mistaken. Not teaching them that they can’t get everything they want when they want it is a recipe for raising an entitled and rude child.
Just say no. Even though you might receive a stare or a dissatisfied sigh here and there, you and your kids will be much happier when they grow up.
That road trip ended with a lesson nobody there wanted to learn.
For another brutal family boundary moment, see why this AITA teen excluded her father from graduation.
