Family: you can’t live with ‘em, you can’t live without ‘em! Siblings may cause your blood to boil when they tease you, and parents might get under your skin by trying to control too many aspects of your life. But at the end of the day, they’re family! As long as it’s clear that they truly love you, you can’t help but love them back.
But just because someone is family doesn’t mean you have to let them walk all over you or make unreasonable demands. In that case, feel free to call them out online! Below, you’ll find screenshots and photos featuring shockingly entitled behavior from relatives. We hope this list doesn’t remind you of any of your own family members, pandas, and keep reading to find conversations with Rachel Garduce, LCSW from Modern Therapy and Al Hoberman, MT-BC, LCAT from Zencare!

#10 My Entitled Aunt Forced Me To Take Care Of My Spoiled Cousin
My family decided to have a family reunion, and my entitled aunt drove up to me and my roommate’s front porch and just dropped my spoiled cousin off. He was there for a week as she wouldn’t drive back to get him. In the week that he was there, he threw fits and temper tantrums because we wouldn’t bend over backwards for his demands, and we ended up driving him back to his mother’s (my aunt) hotel room, and she ended up telling the family I punched her even though that’s further from the truth.

#16 My Entitled Mother
She always felt like she was entitled to see how my body was developing because she was my mother and “created” me. I had no privacy, and I still have problems years later from her barging in on me while I used to shower. I spent most of my childhood feeling deep shame and crying a lot. I didn’t realize this wasn’t a normal thing till a few years ago (I’m 31 now). Oh yeah, she’d be laughing the whole time, too. I still don’t understand what she got out of it.

#19 Our Dog Destroyed Trim
I left my husband in charge of our dogs while the kids and I visited my family. He chose to stay at his brother’s house and only let our dogs out once a day. Yesterday, he sent me this picture and proceeded to blame it on me.

#20 My Demanding Parents
My mother and father showed up outside my apartment without a notice and demanded I go eat dinner with them even though I’ve been living independently for six years. The last time I saw them, they made me cry in public, so I’ve been putting off seeing them.

#22 My Younger Brother Wants Me To Turn On My Hotspot At 4 In The Morning
Oftentimes, we make deals where he buys an energy drink or something, and I let him use my hotspot at 9 PM and leave it on during the night. My brother claims that at 2–3 AM, he goes to bed. Last night, I woke up to him spamming me a ton of messages, wanting me to turn it back on at 4 in the morning. This is the last time I’m going to use my hotspot. He’s 15 years old, by the way.

#29 My Aunt (Very Low Contact) Continues To Ask To Spend The Night At My And My Boyfriend’s Place After Openly Attacking Us At A Party She Wasn’t Even Invited To
My aunt showed up to my family’s New Year’s feast at my parent’s house completely uninvited. She has purposely not been invited the past few years because of some particular nasty or toxic behavior she’s shown at New Year’s feasts in the past.
Our relationship hasn’t been great for a while since she has become a lot more angry and intense over the past few years as compared to the fun-loving aunt I grew up knowing.
It’s also not like she can’t afford a hotel room for the night since she and her husband are incredibly well-off financially.

#30 Texts From My Sister When I Already Had Plans And Couldn’t Watch Her Kid
We both live at my grandma’s house. I work nights (7 PM – 3:30 AM), and she works days. I told her I could be free after 2 PM to help our grandma with my niece if needed. I made plans for a weekend a week in advance, and she texted me at almost 2 AM to tell me she worked at 10 AM and needed me to watch my niece. I told her I wasn’t going to be home because I had plans that weekend. This was her response. I chose not to engage because, in the past, engaging when she was like this just led to telling me what a horrible person I am.

#43 Guilt Tripping Me For Not Being Able To Spend $130 On A Mother’s Day Gift
My mother has become increasingly greedy about gifts since I started making money. But I asked her for a vacuum cleaner for Christmas, and she told me I was crazy for asking for such an expensive gift. To be fair she did get me one, but she made a big deal about me asking for it. I feel like she always finds the most expensive thing she can and asks me for it.
