AITA: ‘She’s not smart enough' : Father refuses to pay for daughter's education, calls University of Cambridge ‘foreign’, demands she study in 'America'

Getting into the University of Cambridge is a pretty big deal, but not everyone thinks so. This father holds quite a few misconceptions regarding what 'foreign' means, and also has a stigmatic stance against his own daughter. Taking to r/AITA, he asked Redditors if he was in the wrong for refusing to pay for his daughter's education, based on the grounds that she 'wasn't as bright as her brother' and because the University she got into was 'foreign'.

Imagine calling one of the best Universities in the world, based in the UK, 'foreign'. The commenters were quick to point out that he better educate himself, as the only one lacking in intelligence is him. Scroll down to read about the absurdity.
