It’s no secret that more and more people are choosing to live childfree. If you’re new to the topic and would like to find out why exactly people make such a seemingly unusual decision, and what they think of it when they’re 50 and older, read our articles here and here.
This story comes from a 48-year-old mother to a 23-year-old daughter who “decided to remain childfree for multiple reasons.” Instead, the daughter “has a blue-tongued skink who she heavily adores” wrote mom in a recent post on r/AITA that amassed 18.5k upvotes. The family drama started after mom “got a text asking if I’d come to her gender reveal party she was having.” And it turns out, she was less than excited with the invitation.
Read the full story right below, to find out if the mom came (spoilers: she didn’t see the point!) and be sure to check out what the people in the community had to comment about the whole incident.
