UPDATE: After ripping a ‘gifted’ check of $40,000 and cutting off contact with his parents, kid fakes reconciliation only to take the money and move far away

Feeling betrayed, OP ripped the check and cut off all contact with his parents, claiming he is better off without them. This caused people all over the internet to discuss whether he was right to be mad, or simply acted ungrateful.
