If you have a sister close in age, you probably laugh, cry, and fight just as loudly. The expression “go big or go home” might exist for this very reason. As someone with a sister, you can’t convince me otherwise. Once you both become mothers, one or both of you get to be the cool aunt, adding yet another thing—or rather, someone—to bond over. Plus, who doesn’t love free babysitting? Seems like a win-win to me! I bet that’s exactly what this pair of sisters thought, too… until this incident hap…

Raising your kids is hard work. Ideally, your family is there for support and a shoulder to lean on. But in some extreme cases, all your family does is meddle and cross boundaries. That’s a red flag at best, and at worst, it could lead to a restraining order. You always want what’s best for your kids, and at the end of the day, your family likely wants the same. But what happens when they take matters into their own hands a little too far? That’s exactly what happened to this mom when her own m…

Imaging being so self-absorbed that you think all quiet people are secretly judging you.

Oof, they took the bait!

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. In family affairs, it’s not always easy to keep your mouth shut. You go in and out of these feelings and thoughts, and sometimes it just builds until it explodes. Of course, it’s not always the best course of action to let things bottle, but if they do, at least stand behind what you said. Just remember, it’s better to air grievances privately, rather than publicly. In this Reddit thread, it centers around a family at dinner. The original poste…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Who doesn’t love Starbucks? Even if you consider yourself a coffee fanatic, coffee buff, or coffee connoisseur, the guilty pleasure of a sugary, caramel-filled, iced frappuccino with whipped cream on top is something none of us can deny. Even though it’s more of an extravagant dessert than it is a coffee drink, we still love to indulge in its decadence. But at the same time, no one likes to mix work and pleasure, especially on a holiday. In thi…

The dress is one of the most important and iconic aspects of a woman’s wedding. Flowing, flowery, embellished with lace and length, all to show off the loveliness of the bride on her wedding day. Lots of women hold onto their wedding dress for their whole lives, always a symbol of their marriage and their man. It will be remembered forever not only as it’s immortalized in her closet, but in photos that will be seen generations later. It’s important to get the best dress. In this Reddit thread,…

Home girl was really gonna pull a heist to get her hands on the dress...

Red flag of stupidity

Crazy how the guilt-trippers in these situations never offer themselves to help.

Some sandwiches are made with love, some are not.

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. It’s daily common to have a hostile relationship with mothers of any type – be it bio moms, step-mothers, or mother-in-laws. What is it about this stereotype that carries itself in so many situations? From Brothers Grimm fairytales, to these wild Reddit stories, mothers in all forms make quite a ruckus. Well, this Reddit story is about…you guessed it, a mother of sorts and a dramatic situation during the holidays. The original poster (OP) is a…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. The ugly face of favoritism shows itself more often than we’d like to admit. Whether we’re friendlier with some coworkers than others, or we prefer to spend time with one sibling over another, or if we’re on the other side of the favoritism coin. What about when we’re the person left out of the friend group, or our uncle chooses to put his othe r nieces and nephews in the will but not us? All of these things play a part in our interpersonal rel…

How the Grinch stole Thanksgiving.

Just a measly 50k

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Though we’re passed the hump of our precious turkey holiday, the post- Thanksgiving family stories never fail to keep us engaged after the fact. Whether it’s your Aunt Sarah’s bashful and brazen personal questions to your boyfriend, or your Uncle Victor’s terrible impression of Jerry Seinfeld, there’s always something to debrief and gossip about. If there’s one thing the holidays are good for, it’s our ability to indulge in food and family dram…
