r/EntitledParents MOM THINKS I CAN READ MINDS?! - Reddit Stories

today we've got a crazy entitled parent story  of a mom who thinks their kid owes them time   we'll get into that in a bit but first entitled  mother snatches my phone out of my hand because   I wouldn't let her son play games on it I didn't  know they made those in Canada too for context   I'm a Young University student I have two phones  one of which is an old Huawei model that I use   for school and work it's quite slow but has all  my authenticator apps for school years of notes   the email I use for work and my work number on it  it runs okayish well but is horrible in terms of   processing speed and storage yet I'm a lazy crap  and keep putting off transferring all the data   to make my future self's life easier my second  phone on the other hand is a newer iPhone 14 pro   Max model and it has all my games friend contacts  social media Etc on them this occurred back when   classes were still in session but reading all  these stories jotted my memory and now I finally   have time to share it too everything is still so  vividly detailed in my head that I basically can't   get it out since everything was so absurd anyways  onto the story onto the bus I go a normal ride for   me which I take every day I take two connections  one which is an express bus from the University   to a sky train station and the second from the sky  Train Station to the home the second bus is where   I encounter this entitled parent I sit down at  the back of the bus where I always sit and a woman   who's on her phone and talking very loudly gets  on the bus with a noisy kid who be screaming and   crying and throwing a hissy fit for God knows why  I sigh realize it it's going to be one of those   rides and try to ignore the commotion little did  I know the little one has climbed up next to my   seat and staring at my screen while her mother is  nearly 5 seats away still in heated conversation   about God knows what out of nowhere I hear a do  you have any games on your phone I spin around   and there he is this little kid perhaps seven or  eight is gazing deep into my soul on his knees   on the seat and inches from my face I lean back  because well I don't function well with people up   in my face and this kid leans closer foolishly I  reply yeah can I play on it I say no go away they   say but I'm bored I reply I don't care go away  the kid pouch and runs off I thought that was   the end of it then a shadow looms over me I hear  an hem then again I try to ignore it but it was   like an unskippable boss fight cutscene then  out of the corner of my ear young man I look   up great it's the crazy lady I say yeah why did  you tell my son he couldn't use your phone I say   because it's my phone you kids are always glued  to the screen these days you can do without it for   a single bus ride at this point I am stunned so I  don't respond for a few seconds then slowly reply   what I do with my phone is none of your business  this lady recoils in shock and anger as if I just   buried a puppy alive how dare you talk to me like  that show some respect she then sees my second   phone my work phone and says you have two phones  just give them one you can use the other one I say   no lady I'm not giving some stranger kid my phone  she says but you don't need two phones lady I was   annoyed at this point and my tone was starting to  get aggressive it doesn't matter that I have two   phones they are my phones I won't be giving them  to your son no means no she rolls her eyes and   walks away her son screaming and clutching the  leg of her pants I tune out the commotion once   more stricken with disbelief and still wondering  what in the world just happened open up some   offline games to decompress I thought that was  the end of everything how foolish I was I feel a   tug on my backpack as I zone out I instinctively  look for my screen and this little piece of crap   is under the seat reaching into my bag trying  to pull out my second phone I panic smack his   hand away and Shout what the freak are you doing  now I'm a normally very calm and reserved person   however having served six full years in the Royal  Canadian Army Cadets and currently being a drill   instructor my voice was loud when I wanted it to  be the kid wines and cowers freezing for a solid   moment before crawling out from under the seat  and runs to his mother crying I sigh to myself   yep she's back before the kid even reaches her  she's up and storming over how dare you speak to   my son like that I said you're your son tried to  steal my phone she says let him have it stop being   a brat you can stay off your phone for a moment  it's not that big of a deal I was seething with   a rage boiling with anger without skipping a beat  I spat back well if it's not such a big deal how   about you let him have yours that way you can keep  an eye on your little precious angel and start   being a responsible parent for once your kid being  bored is not my responsibility she turned red and   demanded are you calling me a bad parent and I  responded with if you were such a good parent your   kid wouldn't be off trying to steal other people's  stuff now our shouting match had drawn quite a   commotion I had heard a few oo and Dangs from the  back of the bus she grew visibly red and snatched   my phone from my hand not my work phone the one  in my hand she said give me that you brats don't   deserve these I was stunned for a second that  she actually did something so incompr insensibly   stupid looking back I knew I should have done  something better but I sprang up wrestled my   phone from her grasp and knocked her down in the  process crap hits the fan she starts wailing like   a banshee screaming that I assaulted her her son  is crying and he's punching me in the legs the bus   screeches to a halt and the driver comes running  up now seeing the situation me towering over the   screeching mother and holding a phone he assumes  that I was the perpetrator this is quite had a   long bus joined together with two sections so I  assumed that he hadn't heard or saw exactly what   was happening only noticing the commotion in his  rear mirror and seeing me knock Karen down after   snatching the phone from her grasp so he says sir  return that device at once and leave the premises   or I will be forced to call the po before he can  even finish the sentence the entire bus explodes   with several other passengers speaking up at once  defending my case and telling the driver what had   actually happened the driver held up his hand  backed up and tried to get everyone to calm down   which took quite a while especially because the  Karen kept screaming that she was going to have me   arrested that she was going to sue me that she was  going to press charges Etc once everything finally   calms down I begin to speak however the Karen  interjects with sir he stole my phone from me I   demand to have this insert racial slur arrested  the driver replies ma'am please don't use that   language here he looks like he is about to say  something else but I sigh and hold up my hand and   in the most calm voice I can muster in the moment  reply sir this phone is mine if you will allow   me I will unlock it I hold up the phone it's got  an anime wallpaper on it certainly not something   middle-aged women with children would have I  type in the password and the screen is unlocked   the Karen starts screeching again he saw me type  in my password that's how he knows lady a clearly   annoyed man in the back speaks up in a booming  voice there are cameras on the bus everything   is recorded At The Mention Of cameras she turns  white as a sheet then without skipping a beat she   drags her crying son to the back door and begins  pounding on it demanding that she be let out all   while screaming obscenities and threatening that  she's going to sue that she's going to fire the   complaint with Transit blah blah blah that wasn't  even it in the commotion despite threatening to by   the Karen someone had actually called the cops  right on Q so two officers roll up to the bus   with flashing lights the Karen throws herself  at the officers as they're let in and starts   spinning some Saab story when she's cut off at  once by a very annoyed police officer this was   something like 8 at night and was probably nearing  the end of his shift or something because he had   an expression like he was absolutely done long  story short the bus was halted for something like   an hour and 45 minutes a second one pulled  up which all the other passengers filed off   into not before giving a witness's statement the  camera feed was pulled and Karen was placed into   the back of a cruiser after she slapped a police  officer one says that they arrived because there   was a report of someone being assaulted on public  transport the police get my contact information   my ID Etc and tells me that they'll contact me if  anything else needs to be done I have no idea what   happened to the kid because I didn't stick around  for the aftermath and just wanted to get the heck   out of there the worst part my parents who were  always always displeased with me coming at home   late unfortunately did not believe my story they  thought it was an excuse so after hearing that   story is it wrong of me and is it outlandish for  me to say she should not be a parent somebody who   was acting like that in public being a literal  Menace not caring about other people she should   not be in charge of raising shaping or even trying  to keep alive another human snooping feline wrote   this goes beyond entitled parents and veers into  mental illness probably both I would have found it   hard not to smack her and boot that brat 50 yards  away also hi I'm Steven and if you guys enjoy   crazy stories of entitled parents why not hit  those like And subscribe buttons down below that   said our next story is my parents are thinking  I'm addicted to screens when I'm not so for some   backstory basically my mom and stepdad hate games  and all of that and are absolute control freaks   and I play games just to talk to friends I can't  see much now what took place recently is that   out of the blue one day they decided to take me  to a neurologist even though I had lectures and   they told me the college wanted me to go there  even though I didn't buy the story at all and   then when we got there I asked why is the college  making me do this again and they said they didn't   at all make me go here and that's when I knew  something was up since the info they were telling   me was going against one another and I said I  thought the college told me to go here and then   the neurologist walked in and called for me and  after doing some tests and everything it turns out   it was all about my screens the whole time even  though I'm hardly even on them and next thing   I know I'm having everything taken and the next  thing I know I can't see my friends for two months   and then I get my stuff back and I'm getting my  Wi-Fi which I pay for being restricted along with   my TV being restricted by a weird wood box thing  that the TV cord leads to and I figure out that   the Box controls the power to the TV and the only  way I can get the TV cord out of the box is with   a Phillips head screwdriver which I don't have and  I don't live on campus since I just don't like how   small it is in the dorms so I live at home for now  but when I get back from college for the weekend I   notice all my electronics except for my phone and  laptop are missing since I had my phone and laptop   with me and I go to ask where the heck my stuff is  and they tell me to look in the office and there's   all my stuff all plugged in and I ask why the heck  my stuff was moved and they say because I was on   it last night even though I definitely wasn't for  a fact and I say ball and they can even check my   profile on Steam to see when I was last on since  I have two accounts I play on and I was on one the   other day and they said that I was lying and  that my stuff isn't going back in my room no   matter what so now I can't even have any privacy  anymore it seems I hate my parents like I get it   limiting screen time is good for kids growing up  but when your college age and you're old enough   to be able to make that decision for yourself it's  pretty ridiculous and once op is able to move out   on their own hopefully assuming they're going to  be able to at some point that's just how you have   kids who make sure they keep their distance Shadow  Fox wrote maybe it's better to move into the dorms   seems like your parents think your grades could be  better as that's the usual excuse they give time   to do some PC games instead don't they understand  most college work is on a laptop and need internet   our next story is burnt out 22 I live with my  grandparents and they refuse to use AC in school   scorching Texas it gets very hot in the house 80  plus with 77% humidity yes I'm trying to move out   something I can't afford right now I do fully  support myself AKA full-time job and help with   bills buy all my own groceries Etc but it does  greatly affect my health in these conditions my   grandparents are in their 70s my Grandma has a  range of health problems from COPD asthma and a   heart condition she States since she's old lady  with health problems she gets what she wants in   this house she is cold all the time even when  it's over a hundred outside the house gets up   to 81° with a humidity of 77% it gets even hotter  when I try to cook Kitchen reads at 83° with 77%   plus humidity I have offered to pay the entirety  of the electricity bill each month so we can have   a bit of AC but they won't allow me to pay for it  they said no AC Allowed no fans allowed including   ceiling fan and no windows to be opened no air  flow or movement whatsoever in the house ever   any chocolate candy Etc melts within hours once  you bring it into the kitchen literally brought   some chocolate donuts home from Walmart one day  and within hours the frosting it completely melted   off of them and slid off the donuts and was just  a big pool of frosting in the box that's legit   not normal indoors I do try to turn it on when  they leave to go to the store or out to eat Etc   that's maybe one a week or so I only put it on  76 or 77 so not even crazy low but when they get   home she somehow is able to tell if the AC's been  on even when I turn it back off before they get   home and she'll walk in the door and freak and  start saying did you turn on the AC I told you   no AC is allowed in this house and then threatens  to kick me out to the streets because I turned on   the AC she said no one uses AC like this I told  her literally yes they do especially in Texas   everyone runs AC but she claims people don't use  it though she's been complaining that her pastor   turns on the AC in church and she said she was  going to ask him if he can start turning it off   for her and not use it she also likes to have all  the blinds open in the entire house so the sun   just beams in all day long to the point even the  kitchen table will be hot to the touch from the   sun beaming on it she doesn't allow for Windows  to be open either she said it makes her asthma act   up I have with her mom I purchased to monitor the  temp and humidity in the house it gets dangerously   hot I've tried showing her articles that this type  of temperature and humidity in the house can cause   mold to grow and actually can cause effect SL  woren her breathing conditions but she said   she doesn't care and it's not true I understand  her conditions and medication may make her cold   but she refuses to put on a coat sweater Etc and  instead just refuses to use any AC ironically in   the winter she blasts the heater non-stop runs  about every 15 minutes on 80° air gets so dry I   have very bad nose bleeds but in summer she starts  to say she can't afford air conditioning I offer   to pay the electricity bill she refuses she said  she's not going to allow me to control the house   and that no AC is allowed in this household I tell  her it's funny she has heater money all winter but   no AC money the humidity in the house also causes  the sewer to smell it's septic tank here and the   hotter it gets outside and the hotter it is in the  house the bathroom reeks of poo it also affects   my health from constantly sweating last year I  finally bought an AC unit to place in my room they   didn't want me to get one but I now work from home  fulltime and there was no way I can sit in this   house all day working in these conditions I have  very bad body acne in which I've tried every body   was trying to clear it up but it doesn't I also  get boils from sweating constantly it's extremely   embarrassing I also tend to get lightheaded and  I do try to stay hydrated but from sweating so   much it's hard it's also affected my weight as  it's almost impossible to cook because turning   the oven on makes it 10 times hotter I have  gained so much weight since working from home   the last year cooking on the stove I literally  will have sweat dripping into my eyeballs sweat   dripping down my back and my shirt ends up wet  with sweat even sitting at the kitchen table to   eat is almost unbearable especially with the sun  beaming in therefore I eat fast food mostly every   day during the summer which has caused me to gain  a ton of weight I do try to cook in my air fryer   but she gets super mad when I get it out cuz she  says it's too big and bulky she complains that   I'm gaining weight and says that I need to eat  healthier yeah I would love to but I literally   can't because of her I love to cook and wish I  could but I literally start to feel physically   ill when cooking because of how hot the kitchen  gets my grandpa her husband of 47 years says since   she has health problems we do as she says he said  they both grew up without air conditioning so it's   not needed I worry for all our health even the  dog's health she is always convinced that the   dog is cold and will put his winter sweater on him  when he goes outside and it'll be in the upper 70s   outside she said the dog is a lot like her and  stays cold I told her literally no he's not when   a family comes to visit they tell her it's hot  but her resp response always is she feels fine   she says if people don't like it then they can  just not come visit then I've had some friends   come over who literally end up leaving because  it's so hot they can't take it anyways I guess   I'm just here to vent and just hope I can move out  in the near future I definitely think Grandma here   has some actual medical issues going on I live in  a climate where you almost always want to have AC   going and in plenty of places in Texas I can  totally understand you know it's 80° with 70   plus humidity ideally you would probably want at  least like low to mid 70s I legitimately think if   I were an OP situation I would probably end up  getting myself kicked out of there and I would   make it my life's mission to move out because when  I'm frustrated and I'm overheated and there's no   way to cool down I think I would just be prone  to blowing up Shadow Fox wrote old people can   feel cold it's due to them having bad circulation  issues just run an AC unit in your room room and   stay more in your room sucks but at this point she  won't change your mind it could also be a tactic   to make sure you move out our next story is mom  thinks I owe her my time and can read minds let's   start with saying that I have autism and ADHD  both diagnosed by professionals and the ADHD   part was re-evaluated three times and the autism  was confirmed after I demanded a second opinion   I am no contact with my dad he is a diagnosed  narcissist however I had a regular contact with   my mom before I got pregnant in the fall of 2021  since we my partner and I have gone low contact my   mom loves talking about how she raised us since  I got pregnant like how I at 3 and A2 while she   was arresting from surgery aesthetic she had my  grandmother take us to daycare for four weeks and   how in week two I gave my grandmother the tricks  of how my mom wrangled my brothers who would take   off their snow gears while the other was getting  dressed 2-year-old twins the trick was dressing   me first and putting me on the balcony in a high  crime area of town closing the door behind me to   not let the cold air in dressing one of the boys  putting him on the balcony for me to watch and   taking care of the other before putting him on the  balcony too dressing herself and taking them down   the three flights of stairs which didn't have  child safety gates to the car with me following   she reminds me every few months to this day how  her and my grandmother were disappointed in me and   resentful for not telling my grandmother sooner  or when she took us to get our pictures taken   at Sears and we were being toddlers I think I was  five touching everything and me randomly screaming   a stem I used to have when I was overwhelmed  she kept telling us to sit and be quiet but we   wouldn't do it so after 15 minutes she said she  lost patience left the photographer's waiting   area took us to the parking where she proceeded to  hit us bare bottom one after the other until she   was certain we would remember the pun punishment  for days to come she confirmed it was about us   feeling the pain for days she laughs about how  painful her hands were and how she had feared   at the time that someone would call my country's  equivalent of CPS on her she laughs even harder   remembering that when my dad asked how our day  went I allegedly said we got a lot of slaps and   no pictures she is proud to say that when we went  back the next day we were the picture perfect kids   and how many compliments she got on how her good  behavior or how often she beat my brother's butt   until it bruised for climbing furniture or how  I would make myself severely sick to not eat the   food she cooked I have sensory issues so many more  stories of me either being parentified including   leaving me alone for 4 months with my brothers  when I was 15 I had to pay for groceries for   all three of us with my own money or me and my  siblings being abused it terrifies me that she   could do something similar to my son because she  is not at all regret spring her actions but she   thinks they're funny stories from our childhood  including denying us food for days on end in the   last few years my mental health has been very poor  medication is difficult due to allergies and side   effects and therapy takes the time it needs but I  am better so in the last few weeks my ergotherapy   has put a plan in place to help me regain more  independence energy and physical wellness it's   hard takes 4 to 8 hours a day and I am exhausted  by the end of it my psychologist is all for it my   partner is 100% behind me encouraging me helping  where he can it's going well but because of it   I haven't been very social I don't reach out  to anyone I'm in bed by 9:00 every night at   the latest my mom never reaches out first but  apparently she didn't like that I didn't answer   her text at 11:41 last night so she called today  at noon at first it was just small talk how am   I blah blah blah I remind her that I'm doing the  airo plan to get me back on track she brushed it   off no surprise she doesn't believe that my mental  health is poor hers is worse and she doesn't get   or need that much help good for her but she hasn't  worked a day in over 20 years lives on disability   and I've done all the hard things for her until  I gave birth and even a few days after including   playing armchair psychologist while I wanted  to get back in the workforce and get better   where I'll need minimal help in my day-to-day  life so she tells me about how she had to cook   that hand am she got for Easter that I didn't  come and eat with her my son had a respiratory   infection severe enough that we could barely keep  his asthma in check we had packed a go bag just in   case we needed to take him to the hospital again  she lives an hour away by car or an hour and 20   minutes away from the Children's Hospital why she  didn't keep the ham in her freezer a bit longer I   don't know but it apparently needed to be cooked  today she proceeded to ask me to come get what she   wouldn't eat I reminded her that my husband has  the car at work and that I'm doing my plan plus   using transits she's at least 2 hours away and  that's if all the bus transfers are perfect and   I don't need to wait more than 10 minutes between  them I don't have the time or energy to do this so   I tell her sorry it's not possible she then said  that it's okay she would just bin all the food at   this point I'm drained and say that I don't know  what she wants me to say she says wow call me when   you want to see me and hung up 3 minutes later  I get a text from her that I'll translate for   you guys you know I have little things for my son  you could have just told me that I could have come   for a little while by she never comes to my house  she never offers to make my life easier by doing   anything for me she never hinted at the fact that  she would be willing to come she knows I don't   get social clues or nice actions she knows I don't  read minds and that I'm very bad at guessing what   people want from me she is so passive aggressive  always has been if I'm honest but it's getting   worse she she's ticked when I don't make her a  priority she's ticked I don't let her babysit   in my son well she says her son like I'm just  the incubator who keeps the toddler until she   wants him she's not allowed unsupervised near my  child she's ticked when I let other people babysit   him she's ticked when I don't call her every day  she's ticked when I don't take care of things for   her despite knowing that to prioritize her I was  living a very unhealthy life my needs are always   last she started doing the same to my husband and  it bothered me when I realized it but it still   didn't really click it really started to click how  entitled she was with my time and resources when I   was pregnant I had a very high-risk pregnancy due  to a lot of complications and the whole time she   kept saying she didn't understand why I had so  little energy or why I was so sick because when   she was pregnant with me insert whatever she did  felt or how she acted it clicked when a week after   I gave birth despite her having been there for  the birth after she and insisted she wanted me   to visit her and that she was disappointed that  I said no to go back to the hospital to treat   my son's severe jaundice instead you could have  just come for an hour or so and delay by 4 hours   my son's treatment it clicked when she wanted  me to bring my son to her so she could cuddle   my child but be of no other help it clicked when  she kept telling me to stop pumping milk and just   buy formula for him it would be easiest when my  son needed a very specific very expensive formula   formula we couldn't really afford well I didn't  breastfeed any of you and you turned out fine   but today it's so evident how entitled she is how  without asking she expected me to drop everything   and go to her for food and how I should have just  guessed that I should tell her to visit when she   never does even when offered she never comes  but today I should have guessed that she would   my partner reminds me that no I can't read mines  and no I couldn't have guessed but he he's at work   and I'm overwhelmed tired and defeated I feel like  I'm asking too much to want just one parent in my   corner I think it's why I still have any contact  with her I feel sad I need a dent if you have any   questions don't hesitate to ask honestly the only  question I have is why they still continue to put   up with that I'm just wondering what the breaking  point is for op where they realize you know what   this isn't worth it you know send a text where you  lay out how exactly you feel how exactly you feel   they've let you down and how unless their next  reply is an apology and how they want to try to   do better that you won't be replying or something  like that I mean really how much more is worth it   I think op is only still going on just because of  all the years of being parentified and conditioned   but with that being said that's all the time we  have for today now if you want to hear another   absolutely crazy entitled parent story check out  that video on the left or if you missed my latest   video check out that video on the right that's it  I'll see you all next time with some more stories
