It sounds like this woman had her hands full with dealing with an insane amount of entitlement from her fiancé's mother. Basically, the mom clearly wasn't interested in taking advantage of her family's good graces and financial support anytime soon. So, she decided to go ahead and withdraw her support. You might be able to imagine who the moral judges of Reddit's AITA community found themselves siding with.

    Font - AITA for withdrawing support over a meal? Once a year (not last) my family goes to a fancy restaurant. Like a place where steaks are 45+ and sides al a carte. It's a fun treat for us kids at least, as our parents pay. We all catch up, and we get to try places we never can't afford ( yet) ourselves. So 2019 when we went, my parents invited my fiancé's mom as we were newly engaged and she hasn't met everyone. When invited his mom expressed she can't afford it, and I told her it's fine cause

    Font - My parents bit the cost and asked me not to complain, they don't want to start anything. BF was equally mad and talked to her. She tried to say that since they picked the restaurant they can afford it, so it wasn't a big deal. When it was explained that this a once a year thing before!

Walking out his sis jokingly asked where we were going next year. His mom said it's just it was a joke, calm down. So I cancelled the scheduled payment to help her pay 1/4 her rent. It was - the same as the meal, so I told her her daughter can pay it or she can. Bf is being harassed by them now. AITA? 2.6k 186 ↑, Share

    Rectangle - simplynelbelle · 4h NTA... I say this out of care but are you sure you want to marry into this family? Your fiancé may not be that way but you will become family with these people. It sounds like you will be signing up to bankroll his side of the family in the long run. G Reply 4 1k 3 + ...

    Font - ForwardPlenty • 3h Colo-rectal Surgeon [40] NTA Their behavior was just awful. If it were me, I would coach BF to quietly slip dad some bucks to cover it, with a big apology, saying that we can't always control how our families act and that not everyone in the family has such bad manners.

    Font - littlepiratesopinion · 3h NTA, they feel way too entitled to your parents money. Stop paying their stuff and consider sitting your in-laws down, together with your fiancé, to make it clear to them that you won't continue paying for their stuff. G Reply
