A Tale of Priorities: A Child’s Health vs. Wedding Festivities
A wedding reception turned into a frantic search for a missing child, ending in a shocking revelation – the child had slipped and broken her ankle. The parents, prioritizing their child’s health, left the reception early to seek medical help. This decision, however, sparked a controversy with the groom’s parents, who questioned why the medical visit couldn’t have waited till the next day. The incident, while resolved, left the parents questioning their decision. Was it right to prioritize their child’s health over the wedding festivities? Or should they have waited till the next day? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…

NTA for taking your daughter to get care for her broken ankle but are TA for taking lousy care of her in the first place. Your little backup plan was more of a Plan A it seems. You knew she would get lost as I’m sure it has happened before due to your selfish parenting. Rather than ensure you don’t f**king lose her, you develop a backup plan, which is less a ‘plan for emergency’ and more just the plan. Frankly, it was pretty irresponsible of you to bring her in the first place if there was such a good chance you’d lose her.
