As the dust settles, let’s see what the internet has to say about this tangled web of love and deceit.

“YTA. Summer doesn’t NEED a reason to come home. “

Stepmother’s Disney-inspired approach gets called out. Hilarity ensues!

YTA: You’re not the parent, grow up!

“YTA this is his daughter in his house, either suck it up until she’s moved out or at college or ship out. Why not compromise, live separately and schedule dates when you will be the centre of attention. You will not win trying to get between a parent and their child.”

“Are you kidding me? YTA. Always go get the kid!”

YTA for not accepting your fiancé’s daughter.

YTA for lacking empathy and calling her manipulative. Dumped for sure

“YTA – Not your place. He should choose her over you.”

“YTA. Autoimmune disease is miserable. Summer having an appetite is good.”

YTA for not realizing the challenges of being a step-parent

“YTA. Withholding info, you don’t get a say. You’re a**hole.”

“Holy **** 100% YTA.” Dating someone with kids? Think twice! ‍

YTA. Denying a child the ability to go home is an a**hole move.

You’re the a**hole for prioritizing yourself over his daughter.

“YTA, she wanted to come home, her reason is irrelevant and it’s 100% not your place to decide whether she should stick it out or not. I think it’s ironic that you want call her manipulative when you clearly tried to manipulate this situation to suite your own wants.. the correct thing you should’ve done was let her dad handle it immediately. Children should not be ignored in these situations, something legitimately bad could’ve been happening over there and her excuse of not feeling well may have been the only ‘safe’ way to get out of there. Did you consider that at all? No, because you do not have this girl’s best interests at heart, let the people who do make these decisions.”

“YTA. A 15 year old should feel safe anywhere “

Jealousy and dismissal: A rocky start to a blended family

“YTA for being jealous and causing trauma. She’s already dumped.”

Educate yourself on autoimmune disorders before judging others.

Dating people with kids? YTA gets some tough love!

“YTA It’s time to call off the wedding, and the entire relationship. If he’s not going to do it, then you need to. You absolutely are not ready to be a stepparent/parent. At least not now. Please remain childless, and don’t date anyone with children, until you can reflect back on this and realize what an a**hole you were.”

Envious of his daughter? YTA for not prioritizing his kids

YTA for being jealous of his child’s need for attention

“YTA. She’s a sick teenager, not manipulating. Be more understanding! “

“YTA. Let the kid come home. Not your call.”

“Eh…YTA. You have valid points, but it wasn’t your place.”

Timing matters! YTA for not being there during Summer’s crisis

OP’s fiancé’s daughter causes tension. YTA gets called out.

“YTA. You had no right to make that choice.”

ESH for enabling her, move on and find someone else

Competing with a teenager for attention? YTA!

“YTA. Ignoring her made it clear you lack empathy and compassion.”

Teen pulls strings, but OP’s manipulative behavior takes the cake. YTA

“YTA. She is his daughter and her mom is not in the picture. Of COURSE she is going to be closely bonded to her father and he obviously adores her and puts her FIRST, as any parent should! How dare YOU accuse her of faking her illness or manipulating him?! She is a 15 yr old child who needs her father and vice versa! You are obviously jealous of the bond they have and you view her as an intrusion and threat into the time and attention with him that you want all to yourself! I hope he decides to walk away and not look back because you will not be a supportive partner for him, and you will be a horrible step parent to this child. She deserves someone who will love her along with loving him. You aren’t up for either task.”
