A Taste of Their Own Medicine

Our bride-to-be has had enough of her parents’ double standards when it comes to sleepovers and relationships. ‍♀️ When her parents come to visit to help with wedding planning, she decides to enforce the same rules they imposed on her growing up. Her unmarried parents are not allowed to share a bed in her house, just as she and her fiancé were never allowed to at her parents’ place. ️ This leads to a heated argument, with her parents accusing her of making things up and ultimately cutting their visit short. Now, even her grandmother is calling to scold her! So, who’s really in the wrong here? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this drama-filled situation…
