    Font - CurlsintheClouds · 20 hr. ago S It really does. Like...if I were the 17 or 16-year old, I would have been EXPECTED to help out. Even the THOUGHT of saying no would never have crossed my mind.

    Font - EmeraldBlueZen · 19 hr. ago Asshole Enthusiast [5] I dunno, I'd think at 19 and 17, these kids are old enough to understand that a family emergency should be taken seriously. But WTF with wife and her lunch date??? These folks are bizarre - and not in a good way. YTA
