Every engaged couple should have the right to decide how they want to get married. Suggestions from family and friends are normal, but passive-aggressive comments and blackmail are not.
A few days ago, one man turned to Reddit to vent his frustrations about planning a small, intimate wedding with his fiancée. And they all have something to do with his parents, who pushed their vision of the event even after they were told to stop.
Some families contribute financially, and in exchange, the bride and groom may grant them power over certain choices, but that wasn’t the case here. His mom and dad weren’t ready to pitch in, but had no trouble dictating guest lists, demanding a bigger venue, and even destroying his personal belongings to try to force their way.

Does any sane person really think that's the way to persuade someone to change their mind? I'm beginning to wonder if the dinosaurs died out due to stupid entitled parenting.
Honestly it's frightening just how many parents behave like utter s hits. As for all they did for him he was their child he had no choice in that. I hope they had a lovely tranquil wedding and that the drama eejits are still blocked.
