A Family Divided: The Sign Language Standoff 🤷‍♀️

In the midst of a family drama that could rival any soap opera, a woman finds herself in a quandary. After discovering her husband's hearing-impaired daughter from a previous relationship, she's faced with the challenge of learning ASL. However, juggling a busy schedule and already knowing three languages, she's hesitant to take on the task. As the family's division deepens, the question remains: Is she in the wrong for not wanting to learn sign language? Let's see what the internet has to say about this situation... 🍿👀

"YTA. One of the biggest ones I have seen on here. Like Top 3. You might be even a bigger a-hole than the dude who showed up to his ex-girlfriend's mom's funeral (that he wasn't invited to) with a new girlfriend." 😱

"YTA. WOW! 'I don't know if it's worth it', seriously? My new stepdaughter, that I didn't want has a disability but I unwilling to make any effort to accommodate a d as such I have taught my kids that they don't have to make any effort either. Not only are you an a**hole but you're the definition of a wicked stepmother and terrible role model to your own children." 😡

"YTA. What does marriage mean to you? The man you married, the man you LOVE is asking you to learn ASL for his DAUGHTER. He shouldn't have even asked or suggested it. You should have been allllll over it. If this child doesn't mean that much to you I understand but your HUSBAND cares for her and dammit that should make YOU care. You married this man. That means you should support him even if it means doing something you do not want to do. That little girl is now your stepdaughter. Could you do any less to make her feel welcomed and loved? She's hearing impaired and just found out about her long lost dad. Now, she'll come to learn her step mother couldn't be bothered to learn ASL just because she only visits once a month? Would you want your own biological children treated that way if it was them? Good grief, YTA OP." 😡
