Birthdays are special occasions where you get to gather with your loved ones and celebrate the anniversary of your birth. But what happens when things don’t quite go as planned? A 17-year-old girl recently threw a birthday party for herself and her twin brother, but things took a turn for the worse when she received a cake made by her 9-year-old cousin. The cake was lopsided, the icing uneven, and the taste was not to her liking. Being honest about her feelings, she told her family that she had to throw the cake out. However, the situation escalated when she found out that she was on speakerphone and her young cousin heard her negative comments. Now, the family is upset with her and her cousin doesn’t want to talk to her. Was she in the wrong for being honest, or should she have just said she liked the cake?
