The five year old didn’t need to be there. He is five, he would not have know. Brother could have left him at home.
The fact that the 15yo has more sense than the rest of the family!
They shouldn’t have said they “would take responsibility” if they weren’t ready to take said responsibility if something happened! This is the perfect example of saying things you don’t actually mean!!!!
They dont forget, they are narcissists...they " forget" so they dont have to take accountability
Oof yes, that’s a classic move. Dusty said it, their word means nothing and OP knows it.
As soon as the kid threw the cake, OP should have looked at the parents and ask, 'Am I being dramatic?'. OP's parents need to read that story about the spoiled younger sister who ended up in a mental ward because she was so indulged - his bro needs to read that too. If they don't get a handle on this kid PDQ, they will all be shocked that OP is NC in about 3 years...
😂😂😂 perfect response
OP is handling this well when they don’t have to be. As someone with a Christmas birthday, I know what it’s like to be trampled over or have to accommodate others when I shouldn’t have to. I hope when they’re older, their birthdays will be theirs. I took myself to Scotland for my last bday, so there’s an idea
They didn't respect their son's wishes at his own party and what sounds like a pattern didn't "take responsibility" for the choice they made and it's outcome. Cause and affect!!! You are the parent, you can't brush everything off onto others.
NTA! Sounds like they knew the kind of terror the nephew was and didn't keep the kid away from the cake. Gee, I wonder why OP didn't want they kid there?
I would be mad at both parents and brother. Grandparents need to take responsibility but also big bro needs to learn how to control his son , discipline and consequences
The kid is five, so he would not have known he was missing out on a birthday dinner. Is the older brother the golden child? Maybe they thought the only way for the older brother to be there was for the grandson to be there too. Either that or they are trying to show off somehow.
Someone asked if the 5-year-old has special needs. It doesn't matter. It is still up to the parents and grandparents to make sure he doesn't disrupt whatever event they are all attending. Especially when OP specifically said he didn't want his nephew at the party because of his behavior. OP's brother must be the favorite. Parents were more worried about his brother being upset because OP refused the dinner invitation than they were about OP's party being ruined. His brother and parents should feel bad. If OP could predict the kid would ruin the party, why couldn't any of the rest of them figure it out?
I have a throw it on the ground t-shirt from lonely island’s first concert.
I read your comment before listening to the video and was like…I don’t understand this comment but now I do 😂
@@Lev.R hahah i can see how that would happen 😄😄
I feel very concerned that this kid is fifteen and he said his parent usually handle conflict by ignoring him for an entire day. Sounds like abuse to me.
“Not like- take him out” 😂😂
OP will be NC in about 3 years & he should focus on that to keep his sanity.
In the meantime, he should start giving the bratty nephew every cake, every present, and all attention to him at every birthday party OP has.
If his parents say something about it, OP can say "Oh, I thought it best to be honest about why anyone bothers to celebrate my birthday" and just walk away.
The angrier his parents get the more he should apologize for not giving enough to his nephew, for not ingratiating himself to his nephew to his parents' satisfaction, and for being wholly unworthy of their love and attention.
If his parents make no effort to provide genuine damage control before he turns 18, then he can cut ties with them without any guilt and start searching for his own tribe.
Honestly, with them all knowing how that 5 year old acts, but completely dismissing it, it sounds like they wanted it to happen. Maybe he's not the golden child between the siblings. Maybe they just wanted the money (which is my feeling of why this happened) I mean!!! It's very much so possible to invite the older brother and not invite the nephew! The brother seems to know that their child is like that and is trying but with knowing that, I think they would understand a bit more if they wanted to invite HIM but not his son. Like, if the wife wanted to come with, they could find a sitter. Or the wife could stay home with son and be a mom-and-son day instead.
This is what happens when there isn't any discipline. So sorry OP
give OP a party and cake with the people he wishes, and also a family dinner with the brother and grandchild. That way everyone gets included. And OP is respected.
0:52 If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a hundred times. Gen Alpha is fucked.
Shame on the parents. He said this would happen they didn't listen now they need to take responsibility.
This is crazy that the most mature person in this story is OP at 15. The parents acting like upset children.
A kid throwing a tantrum of because he doesn’t get to blow out the candles on someone else’s birthday cake or doesn’t get presents at someone else’s birthday party is a major red flag. We’ve seen plenty of these stories. At least the brother apologized. He should have taken him from the room when he started crying about not getting the blow out the candles, and Parents should have honored OP’s reasonable request.
NTA. Parents definitely are. Brother handled it well but should have left the kid at home. The parents make the party about the grandson and not their son. Not cool.
I have a feeling that the brother would've gotten a babysitter for the nephew, but OP's parents wanted it to be a "family" event. 100% parents fault and it's sad that OP is used to this behavior so early in life.
If still have a CHILD in the home they take priority over the grand. Sorry, I love my grandsons but when my youngest was still in the home and dependent on us for his care and raising...he got priority over the grands.
NTA. I wonder how many other times OP has been the victim of his family's shenanigans and then made out to be the bad guy.
💯 NTA.
No,the 15 year old is alot smarter than his parents seem to be. If you want a 5year old not to be left out,have a family dinner with 5year old and let the party go ahead without the disruptive kid.
Time to stop family b-day parties. Have a diner but party for friends. Sweet 16 and all that. F them parents and not going with bday persons wishes
💛
What no asscon scale for the parents❓ I am so disappointed. You let me down.
I want to say this. I have a 13yr old daughter and a 5yr old autistic son that gets very over or under stimulated. And it's gotten to the point that because of MY past my family invites my eldest but refuses my my youngest to do anything even an Easter egg hunt. So I've said if my youngest isn't invited my eldest doesn't go. And my eldest is okay with that. She actually is upset when her brother doesn't get invited and flat out told no he can't come that it makes her not want to go to their aunt and uncles (im never allowed or i would keep him occupied) even to see their cousins. If the child is special needs I believe the family should learn calming techniques to help them and the child especially that in age that age bracket not just say no hes not allowed or family because that's basically what MY FAMILY DOES. NOT SAYING That's the case in this family but still. "It takes a village to raise a child" came from from some where ya know
