Bride-to-be faces backlash for not inviting disabled sister to wedding

In this story, bride-to-be is facing backlash for not inviting her severely autistic sister to her wedding. The sister, Anna, has difficulty understanding boundaries and has a habit of trying to touch and kiss the bride-to-be's fiancé, Michael. The bride-to-be asked her parents to not bring Anna to the wedding, as she wants one day where Michael can be her partner and not Anna's comfort person.

However, the parents called her selfish and said that Anna may never experience a wedding of her own. They have now decided not to attend the wedding and have even gone as far as suggesting that the bride-to-be shouldn't bring Michael around anymore.

The situation has escalated to the point where the bride-to-be has dropped the unfortunate truth bomb that she won't put any more of her life aside for Anna anymore. She assured them she'd pay for her care but if Anna's okay doing this to Michael, then she worries about what she'd do to her future children. The situation has caused a rift between the bride-to-be and her parents.

This is a sensitive situation that should not be used as an opportunity to air out your hatred for disabled people. Please leave the sister out of it. Let's see what Reddit had to say.
