Picture this: a family gathering that has all the ingredients for a peaceful celebration, but instead, it turns into a battleground over a t-shirt. Yes, you heard it right—a t-shirt! The protagonist of our story is a 14-year-old with a passion for social justice, a grandmother with expectations as high as skyscrapers, and a t-shirt that screams ‘eat the rich.’ What was supposed to be a simple birthday dinner quickly spiraled into a clash of generations and ideologies. Buckle up, because this family feud over fashion and principles is nothing short of a rollercoaster ride.
