AITA for lashing out at my parents who are trying to get a other dog with the same breed as our previous dog that trauamtized me

So when i was about 6years old my mom decided were gonna get a dog i was very against it since id never liked dogs very much i told her xou can get a dog but i wont care for it she was like fine my sisters at that time around 15-16 years old both had the same opinion so my mom got the dog my sisters broke their rule and cared for the dog partially going on walks etc i didnt i stayed stubborn within my boundaries my dad still has that dog i never liked the dog when it went to be bigger it always got in my room but that was only bc my parents and my sisters never closed it properly you had to pull teice so it doesnt just go open with the stub of a toe so the dog always dtubbed the door open and destroyed my stuff ofc i got angry so id always resented the dog when i was about 9 or 10 years old the dog got paralyzed from the waist down overnight since my parents divorced when i was eight and my mom lived in an apartment where no dogs were allowed my dad had the dog the day it woke up paralyzed my dad went doenstairs yelled come down here look the dog cant move from below the waist the first thing in my mind that i thought was this is the karma for all that dog did to me and the dog did not only destroy property it limed to burt me when nobody was looking
so when it was christmas i was like 11 then my stepdad gave my mom a puzzle with a dog and she didnt get it then he told her xoure getting a dog i didnt support the decision then either and i had a heated argument with them we eventually didnt get the dog

So am i the asshole ?

  1. YTA. Dog gets paralyzed from the waist down and your reaction was “heh, karma”?

    Thats so messed up.

    Heavily feel the dog was so destructive because you didnt take the time to help train it. The poor thing probably just wanted to play or a new toy, and you gave it anger and neglect. It never learned your boundaries because you probably never taught it to, in a way the dog would understand.

    Im also going to say your parents are AH, for not teaching you how to train and live with the animal.

    You didnt want a dog, some kids dont want siblings, but its not up to you at the end of the day. And once its there, its part of the family. Its on you for rejecting it.

  2. YTA- sorry but I’m a dog guy and anyone that doesn’t like dogs is an asshole.

    You had a bad dog that wasn’t well trained. Work on training the new dog and you will have a great friend.

  3. \> my sisters broke their rule and cared for the dog partially going on walks

    What rule did she broke? I do not get it.

    OK to not want to care for a dog, but I feel sorry for your family. They are not allowed to have a dog, because you will bully them if they do.

    YTA for disallowing other people have a dog you would not pay for and would not cared for.

  4. That’s one sentence!

    There isn’t a single punctuation character in that whole thing! It’s truly remarkable. It’s a master piece of reddit grammatical offenses.

    Congratulations OP, that’s a work of art.

  5. YTA

    Not your decision.

    Also, for the love of all that is holy, learn to string together a coherent sentence!

  6. YTA for your attitude

    YTA because there is not one period or comma in the above post. You want us to read it, the WHOLE thing?

  7. I’m feeling a little bad, because I think you might be 11yo or so. So 1) why are you on social media so young? 2) YTA. I hate saying that because you might be a kid, but you asked.

    This dog did not traumatize you. It was being a dog that could’ve used better training. You’re also a kid, so your parents get to make the ultimate choices while considering you. They definitely need to make better choices and keep you off social media like Reddit, because it’s not appropriate for your age. If you’re an adult, then it really is even more their house, because you’re choosing to stay with them at that point.

    I’m sorry you don’t like dogs, and you have to live with one, but please still try and be respectful to the dog. When you’re an adult and live without your parents, you don’t need to have one.

  8. YTA you sound entitled spoiled and just rotten. I think you paralyzed the dog honestly, if any of this story is even true.

  9. YTA, first of all, please, for the love of God, reread yourself while writing. Second, I feel like your first dog was abused or wasn’t put in a good situation. How do you get paralyzed overnight anyway?

  10. Yta. Not for not liking dogs.

    1- For thinking that just because you don’t like dogs no one else can enjoy dogs. The world doesn’t revolve around you.

    2- Who thinks a dog – or any living creature for that matter – suddenly becoming paralyzed is “karma” that is messed up. There was likely spinal cord damage to that dog and all you could think was “well now this dog won’t
    bother me anymore.”
