A mother had shared a story on Reddit’s “AITA” subreddit. The mother explained she is a stay at home mother, and her husband gave her $100 for the food, decorations and gifts for Christmas, which was not enough. She decided to do nothing for Christmas, which that made her husband mad.
As the wife shared on the 21st of November, 2021, her husband was working with an okay income, and was saving money for four months as he cut from the expenses of the household, for a football gave which will took place overseas.
When the couple talked about their Christmas plans, OP was informed from her husband that he will not be home until 20th of December, and she had to deal with all the planning alone. Then the husband gave OP $100 for the foods, decorations and the Christmas gifts.
She was shocked, as she shared that $100 was not enough at all for the Christmas expenses of her family.
OP stated that her husband had saved money to go to Qatar for a sports event, and he decided to leave $100 for his family, to prepare for Christmas. She decided to do nothing, as $100 would not be enough for anything. As she had argued with her husband, she stopped preparing the house for Christmas.
OP shared the interaction she had with her husband as, “He was livid; he just kept sending an angry message after another calling me “spoiled” and telling me to stop expecting to live like I was still living in my parents’ house and to stop trying to “rob” the kids of enjoying the holidays like the other kids.”
OP didn’t responded to her husband’s mean texts, but her husband kept messaging her about how spoiled she was, and accused her with manipulating himself. Many of the Redditors had shared that the OP was right with her actions, and stated that she was “NTA.”
The Redditors had supported OP, and stated that she should take action against the rude husband, who is putting his personal interests before his family. Here are the comments of the Redditors.
