'My wedding isn't a showcase for your new family': Entitled parents try to guilt-trip their friend into letting a newborn attend their childfree wedding, insisting they accommodate childcare against their will

These new parents didn't realize that their friend's childfree wedding wasn't the time or place for a babycentric meet-n-greet. Unwilling to get a sitter for the best friend's big day, they thought guilt-tripping their buddy into making an exception for their situation was the best course of action. Spoiler: It was not.

Kids can be pretty disruptive at weddings. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the company of children in small doses, but I also understand and respect a couple's wishes to keep their wedding day free of broken centerpieces, crayon drawings on the tablecloths, and mid-ceremony tantrums. If a couple decides they want their wedding to be an adult-only event, that's certainly their prerogative. After all, they're the ones paying thousands of dollars on a celebration that doesn't have to include the entire family.

However, the new parents in this next story thought they'd be an exception on the guest list, assuming they could bring their newborn baby to their friend's childfree wedding. They even went as far as insisting it was their right to introduce their baby to all of their friends in this emotional and romantic setting. Hmm… Entitled much?

Keep scrolling for the fallout and the details of an impasse that directly affected this one-sided friendship.

As if the bride and groom aren't already stressed out planning a wedding that's only 6 months away. Now they have to juggle childcare expectations from their one entitled bestie? It was your decision to have kids, but now it's your responsibility to tend to them like an adult—not push that responsibility on someone else who already has enough on their plate.
