    All fake names. My husband Keith and I have been friends with Cindy, John, Travis and Janelle for going on 12 years now. We have 5 kids (16, 14, 12yo twins, 9). Cindy and John have 2 girls, 9 and 5. Travis and Janelle have 6 kids, ranging from 10 months to 16. So typically all summer long everyone is here with all of the

    kids every weekend and sometimes weeks at a time, since my husband and I own a private lake front property. It's always a pleasure.

    But this year our 14yo daughter had her friend "Hannah" over quite a bit. Hannah is misguided. Her parents are addicts. She doesn't know how to do much for herself. Doesn't pick up on social cues. Dresses.. not so appealing for a 14yo. But she's a delight. She's fun. She's respectful. She calls me mom. And honestly, my
  • 05
    daughter has come out of her shell drastically since Hannah has been around and I will take that as a win because my daughter has been bullied severely in the past and was on the verge of self ending. Hannah pulled her out of it. So yes, I'm very protective of this girl. I love her as if she was my own child.

    Well, this past weekend everyone was here, including Hannah. We had a bonfire going and the girls had music on and they were dancing and acting like teenagers and I thought everyone was having a good time. But my daughter approached me around 8pm, stating that Hannah was crying and wanted to go home. I
  • 07
    asked why and she told me to go ask Hannah. Anywho, I find her, she's hysterical. She tells me that Cindy told her that she had been here long enough and that she needed to go home because her husband (John) was uncomfortable with the way she was dressed, given how she was dancing, and didn't want their

    daughters around her. So because John was 'uncomfortable' Hannah needed to go home. And to top it off, the other adults apparently agreed with Cindy and started ALL telling Hannah how inappropriate she was. So, everyone there ganged up on her the moment me and my husband walked away. I lost

    were already asleep in tents, so they begged me to just let them stay until morning, as most of them had over an hour drive. I said absolutely all of your not. Pack and go. They eventually did. My husband thinks I may have been too quick to the pounce here, though he agrees they were wrong about Hannah. I don't think I was though. AITA?

    Chance-Lavishness... 9h ago NTA and my word, what it must have meant to Hannah to be protected and supported like that. You're a good one.
  • 13
    The other "adults" could learn something about treating people with respect and compassion. They deserve to face the consequences of victimising a vulnerable kid, thinking they'd get away with it because they're adults and in the majority.
  • 14
    ImaginaryWorld851 9h ago NTA. You did the right thing protecting Hannah. Your friends were jerks to a vulnerable teen. They ganged up on her and made her cry. That's not cool.
  • 15
    You stood up for Hannah when she needed it. Your daughter's happiness matters more than some judgmental adults. Maybe kicking them out was harsh, but they deserved it.

    ncjr591 9h ago them, how dare they do that to poor Hannah. If they had issue they should have spoken to you not the girl. Don't ever let them back, they are garbage and should be thrown out like the trash they are.

    ComprehensivePu... 8h ago NTA - John is an adult man. If he was uncomfortable then he should have removed HIMSELF from the situation or learn to control whatever was "triggered" in him by a 14yo girl - which gives me a level of ick that it makes my skin crawl.
  • 18
    You did the right thing. Hannah is very lucky to have an adult like you in her life that has her back. It is never ok for a bunch of adults to hang up on a child. Your hopefully ex-friends are awful.

    they write out apologies - TO Hannah! And there is a great cartoon of one woman (w a husband in the background) saying to a mom with a teen daughter: My husband isn't comfortable with how she's dressed!

    and the mom says, Thank you for letting me know -- that your husband isn't safe for my daughter to be around.
