'AITA for screwing up my brother's adoption on purpose?' Sister derails 'insanely predatory' brother and SIL's baby snatching plot
When your adoption plays out like a Team Rocket attempt to capture Ash's Pikachu — you might need to go home and rethink your life.
Now, I'm not knocking those who would seek to adopt children; largely, these people are doing one of the greatest goods you could imagine — however, privately approaching, no — stalking — a desperate young woman on Facebook and convincing her that her only option is to give her unborn baby to you is nefarious, in a mustache-twirling, cat-stroking, monocle-adjusting kind of way.
The idea of a rich couple pursuing Facebook groups, formed to help those struggling — in order to find and target one of its members with the end goal of taking their child — feels like it belongs in a cyberpunk dystopia rather than in our own world. I'm beginning to think that 80's cyberpunk may have been more prophetic than we're willing to admit.
Luckily, this sister was in the prime position to derail this particular plot. She shared her story after the fact to Reddit's r/AmItheA**hole subreddit to see if she was in the wrong for ruining her brother's adoption plans; the resounding vote has been that she is the opposite of the AH in this situation.
After you're done passing judgment here, as "Judge Judy and executioner," — check out this bad-dad-to-be who was put in his place over his gender disappointment.
