Weddings are fun events, and sometimes people choose to have an adults-only reception.
What happens if your son tells you his wedding is adults-only so that your young daughter can’t go, but then you learn that this was a lie.
That is what happened to this mom, who she decided not to attend at all.
Check out the details below.
AITA for not going to my son’s wedding because he said my daughter can’t go.
My (lyss 38), son (Liam, 24) announced that he was getting married soon.
No big deal, that’s just how some events are.
But he messaged me saying my daughter (Lexi, 14) could not come due to the fact she’s under 18 and there was no children allowed.
I fully respect and understand that but I messaged back saying that my daughter is quiet and wouldn’t be any much of a problem.
My daughter is autistic and is quite well behaved but extremely sensitive.
As long as she accepted the answer, it is fine to ask.
She would have not been a problem. I asked if Liam would have let her come.
After I replied with that, he said that Lexi was still not allowed to come and I respected his decision.
But a few days later I got a message off a family friend (John 28) asking if Lexi was going to the wedding.
I replied with no Liam says no under 18.
Oh, it was all a lie.
John replied back saying that is bs because his daughter (Lillian 13) is going, so straight after he message me I rang Liam.
We had a back and forth argument until he finally admitted that he didn’t want Lexi there due to her autism.
So, I hung up on him and didn’t go to his wedding and I told my sister and a few of the guests and they decided not to go.
AITA?.
Wow, that is just rude of her son. Poor Lexi.
Let’s see what the people in the comments think.
It is good she stood up for her daughter.
This person raises a good question.
It was a terrible plan by the son.
It’s not like she wasn’t going to figure it out.
Yeah, he should have been honest about it.
It is mean to not invite someone because of their disability.
And it’s very telling that they tried to lie about the reason.
