I didn’t burst out laughing. I was trying not to laugh and I blurted out one loud chuckle. And my mom shot me a go to hell look like you’ve never seen. I just couldn’t handle the seriousness. She never forgave me and brought it up every single Thanksgiving until she died.
YTA
Yup
Need more info. What was she getting weepy about… was it a reasonable prayer about normal Thanksgiving dinner prayer-y things, or was she crying about her childhood cat?
YTA. Your mom was showing emotion and being vulnerable and you laughed. I doubt it was actually funny as much as you laughed because the honest emotion made you deeply uncomfortable.
It’s relatable, if you were young. But still unquestionably TA.
YTA. You were rude and callous. She was emotional because she was happy and excited her family was all together, and you humiliated her in front of everyone for it. The fact that this seemingly happened years ago and you still don’t see why you were an AH is honestly pathetic.
Ok?
110% YTA
I dont have full context of all that was said, so im just speculating here.
Was she was getting “weepy” for being thankful for being able to have her children, family, and friends together for a nice dinner and you chuckled at her? If yes, you’re the asshole.
Hope thats not the case.
Yes yta how is that even a question in your mind????
YTA – if you haven’t figured out how to control your rude laughter by 50, why do you expect your mom to control feeling weepy over prayer.
It’s like a really strange I’m more mature and better than everyone attitude that 18/19 year olds get but you were over double the age. How is that not more embarrassing than crying at a prayer?
Eh. As a mom of a teenager, I’m used to my feelings not being taken seriously. I think it was bad behavior on your part, but I certainly wouldn’t bring it up annually.
More importantly, you mentioned “until the day she died.” You ok today?
That is so sweet. I mean you asking if OP is okay today ❤️
YTA unless this is a made up story in which case YTA
