What the fuck happened in here? Are we back in kindergarten where mommy needs to come to school and yell at the bully for stealing her kids milk money?

Nobody here has done anything but give sound advice. This however, is a new one on me. Maybe I should tell my mom to come join in.

Right...and having your mom take care of meanies for you when you are an adult isn't childish

If your child, grown or not, told you that people on the internet or anywhere else, were calling them dumb,and stupid, I'm sure you would be angry as well. The fact that you are calling yourselves bullies, meanies, and require scolding proves my point.

I never called anyone dumb or stupid. Please show me where I said such things.

Sure my Mom would be angry. She'd then ask what I was going to do about it, since she raised me to deal with my problems myself as an adult. She'd be there to give me advice or support but she would never fight my battles for me. Pat of her job as a parent was to ensure I grew into a adult who could handle myself in all situations without having to run to her. What is your daughter going to do when you are gone?? Will she have the ability to deal with these issues herself since she hasn't had to yet??

I have to jump in and make my first post to ask why she is running to you to tattle?

She posted that she was considering doing something controlling and rude, and a lot of people advised her not to do so. Why is she running to mommy?

Also, step back and look at the situation objectively. It's you and her.....and then everyone else. You both see major problems with this thread, this board, the users, etc. What's the common denominator? Or shall I ask who are the two common denominators? Think about it for a moment.

How pathetic is it that you have to come to her rescue. If I bitched to my mom about how people on the internet were being "mean" she would tell me that they weren't worth it and to move on with my life...and if i even SUGGESTED to her that I wanted her to come defend me, she would laugh in my face.

HA! You can shake your head till it falls off.

Your daughter is the childish one here -- suggesting her guests stay overnight to avoid being late to her wedding. WoW!

radleyboo · July 2013

Sorry. Had to.

AddieCake · July 2013

I know, P! Asshole points are very important. I don't know if I have the energy to read this thread again to verify, but I don't recall anyone calling her dumb or stupid. And my being shocked that someone's mom came on TO scold does not equate to my thinking anyone NEEDING scolding. As an adult, I would be mortified if my mother did this to me.

ROROWES · July 2013

OK, so now I see why she stopped trying to defend herself. There is no use. Have a great day ladies.

southernbelle0915 · July 2013

Is this real life?

@ROROWES you are your daughter's only hope. IMHO your time would be better spent helping your daughter realize why this is a rude plan and what her options are to be polite to guests and still have peace of mind. Everyone here is going to stand by what they said about this being a very rude idea. She should be happy that everyone helped her avoid a huge faux pas. Since you're obviously this involved in her personal life please parent her into seeing that. TIA.

Please point out the comments where we called your daughter dumb or stupid?

This is one of my favorite things to ever happen on TK.

A great example of why my generation often has entitlement issues...

AddieCake · July 2013

Mine, too, Zobird. I'm having kind of a shitty day, and this has turned it right around.

radleyboo · July 2013

Makes my grateful that my mom isn't BSC.

keochan · July 2013

I'm gonna call my mom and tell her how awesome she is.

MuppetOverlord · July 2013

Mommy is not effective. Will your fiance come visit us next?

Pepper6 · July 2013

Holy shit...this is the very definition of helicopter parenting. I wonder what else her mommy does for her....

melissanjoe21 · July 2013

I am so glad my mom doesn't hold my hand while I surf the internet.

RamonaFlowers · July 2013

I can't fathom ever running to my mom to tell her what anyone said to me on the internet.

Unless, like, somebody was telling me that I was the funniest person on the Internet and that they wanted to make me famous for simply being awesome. She has 4 other kids and 2 grandchildren besides me, I need something to compete with!

Actually, I'd not undermine my child by 'stepping in'.You are conveying the message to your daughter that she is stupid and incompetant far more effectively than an internet forum ever could. A parent who believes in their child's intelligence and competance doesn't take situations away from their control to 'fix it'.

Dreamergirl8812 · July 2013

How many generations of controlling are we witnessing here? More importantly...

annathy03 · July 2013

Oh vey. I don't remember anyone calling OP stupid or dumb, rather the idea of insisting your guests book a hotel to avoid being late is RUDE. It insults your guests because it implys they are incapable of managing their time, and is an incredibly disrespectful thing to request. If OP or momma bear are still lurking I hope they don't do that. And momma bear, I reread the post, and there is NO WAY a reasonable person would think she was simply asking for wording on a standard hotel block.

loca4pook · July 2013

True story. My cousin (BY HER OWN CHOICE) rented a hotel room so she have fun at wedding and relax. She got there way early, and took a nap, therefore accidentally falling asleep and missing entire ceremony.

So trust me, hotel rooms won't change a thing! LMAO

TheBaysideBride · July 2013

HAHAH this is the funniest thread I've read in a while. I should get a hotel room next to my office.... LEARN TO CHECK TRAFFIC REPORTS, WOMAN! welcome to 2013.

TheBaysideBride · July 2013

OMG and i posted that BEFORE mom jumped in! Holy shiz. No wonder why OP thinks it's not crazy at all to request people who don't need hotel rooms to book them anyway. Mom, do your daughter a favor and tell her to grow up, that Santa doesn't exists, and the world does not revolve around her. Her idea was selfish, it would reflect VERY poorly on both of you, and that was communicated to her. She will be a laughing stock of your guests if she is so myoptic that she believes her request is even remotely OK. Don't kill the messengers.
