A Family Drama Worthy of a Soap Opera!
In this whirlwind of family drama, our protagonist finds herself juggling a new baby, an overbearing step-mom, and a father caught in the crossfire. Anna, the stepmom, seems to have forgotten that she’s a guest, not the tour guide! From changing dates to planning day trips, she’s got a whole itinerary… just not everyone’s on board. Our heroine, however, isn’t one to back down. She’s firm, she’s feisty, and she’s not about to let anyone hijack her family time! But has she gone too far? Is she the villain in this family feud, or is she just standing her ground? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…

NTA, your dad and his wife are tho.. he knew what his wife thought this trip was and didn’t stop all her ‘requests’ from the start and tell her that’s not what we are going there for. Instead he continued to try and accommodate her requests like he didn’t know what was what. Wife should have gotten a hint when you kept refusing her demands (not requests). I would let dad know next time just leave her at home.. or block out some time to do the touristy stuff she wants to do when they are there but be clear that you won’t be joining them.
