Our teenage heroine’s hearing struggles have been dismissed by her mom as ‘selective hearing’ for years, despite her difficulties in school and social situations. At a family BBQ, her boyfriend and mom make hurtful comments about her hearing, comparing her to her hearing-impaired grandfather.

But the drama doesn’t end there – texts flood in, calling them both a-holes for leaving. The internet has some strong opinions on this family feud – let’s see what they have to say!
