“YTA in the biggest way here.” ♀️

“YTA. Being a jerk to your son’s co-parent is an awful idea, and making fun of someone who is crying about her marriage ending to her face is… cold. Even if you do hate her. I think its icky to rejoice in anyone’s pain. Karma is a thing.”

“YTA: Laughing at your son’s divorce? Not a great parent “

Gleefully celebrating son’s divorce? YTA, but justified? ESH?

YTA: A smug JustNoMIL revels in her son’s divorce. Yikes!

“INFO: Missing details make it hard to judge. This needs clarity.”
