A teenager was forced to sell his PS5 after his selfish stepbrothers demanded access to it. The teenager had purchased the gaming console with his own money after earning a lot from a part-time job. At first, he allowed his stepbrothers to use it when he wasn’t using it, but after they destroyed one of his controllers, he changed the rule to only allow them to use it when he was present. This led to his stepbrothers whining to their parents, who then ordered him to place the PS5 in the living room. When he refused, his dad threatened to throw it away while he was at school. Frustrated, the teenager sold the PS5 on Facebook Marketplace. Now, his stepbrothers are devastated and his parents are angry. Was the teenager wrong for selling his PS5? You be the judge.

A teenager who lost his mother to cancer was left in the care of his father and stepmother, along with two young stepbrothers.

When the stepfather threatened to throw the PS5 in the bin, the teen sold it. The stepbrothers found out and were devastated, leading the teenager to wonder if he was in the wrong. The post has since received an update, with the extended family getting involved and the stepfather creating his own Reddit account to share his side of the story.
