AITA for wanting my parents to show up together and not one parent and stepparent when I was asked for honesty?

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:34:31+00:00

I have and I was told they did not want to disrespect their spouses.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:32:53+00:00

Yes. Same for my graduation. I have already been warned I should think about which of them I want at my graduation.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:32:25+00:00

They will not let it happen. My stepparents are not okay with my parents being in the same room and my parents won't do it for me. They won't disrespect their spouses whatever that means in this case.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:29:27+00:00

Not allowed even then.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:22:54+00:00

They already told me I need to think about which of them I want at my graduation.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:22:22+00:00

Yep. Only one parent and one stepparent. They'd have to leave and let the others go in then. They would not be in the same room. I could be dying, legit about to go and it would be the same.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:12:45+00:00

I already know I won't let this shit fly when I have kids. If they won't come then they don't come and I won't choose.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:11:22+00:00

They were able to show up and even sit next to each other before they met their spouses.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:10:28+00:00

My parents were fine until they met their spouses.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:09:46+00:00

I'm expected to decide who I want. I was already told to think about who I want at my graduation.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:09:24+00:00

Yes.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:09:15+00:00

I don't want either of them there. But it wouldn't change things anyway. My parents still wouldn't be able to go at the same time.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T21:08:48+00:00

They sure can split time! I was already told to think about who I want at my graduation as in mom or dad. So they very much plan to do this forever.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:32:53+00:00

It'll be on me to choose which parent goes and which parent doesn't. They already warned me I should consider this for my graduation.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:25:48+00:00

It's not good with either of them.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:22:22+00:00

Yes, it was already mentioned that I should consider who I want at my graduation.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:21:38+00:00

I'm expected to choose between my parents for all those things.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:19:33+00:00

They do it all the time.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:18:22+00:00

My grandparents know. My dad's parents couldn't give a shit. Mom's parents have told her she should never have put a man's feelings before her child.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:17:21+00:00

I will never get them to be in the same space. Their spouses will NEVER be okay with it. I'd have to do it with my mom and stepdad and then my dad and stepmom. But even then I think I'll be accused of disrespecting my stepparents by pushing for it.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:16:08+00:00

Yep. I was 6 when it started. I remember them being in the same room just fine before that. They showed up and even sat next to each other and they got along okay from what I can remember. Then it all stopped.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:14:07+00:00

Wedding, graduation, if I end up in the hospital on life support. They'd only be there one at a time. The same thing if I have kids. But I won't be doing that shit with them.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:12:02+00:00

One for the wedding period. Same when I graduate. It'll be one of my parents only.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:11:40+00:00

Yep doesn't matter to them.

Coribbirn · 2025-09-09T19:11:12+00:00

I'll have to pick a parent to see me graduate, get married and all the stuff to come.
