She’s Taking Her 12-Year-Old Sister On Her Honeymoon With Her And Now Her Parents Are Threatening To Not Come To Her Wedding
A 36-year-old woman is going to be getting married pretty soon to her 38-year-old fiancé, and she’s planning on taking her 12-year-old sister with them on their honeymoon.
When her little sister was just 5, she was diagnosed as having several chronic physical illnesses, autism, ADHD, and a sensory processing disorder.
A year after her parents received the news of her diagnosis, they stopped being able to deal with their own daughter.
She stepped up to the plate along with her fiancé (they were just boyfriend and girlfriend at the time) and made the decision to adopt her.
Her wedding is set to happen at the end of July, and then she’s heading off to Hawaii for her honeymoon.
She will be gone for a week, and She’s really struggling to find someone to take care of her baby sister.
She even thought to ask her fiancé’s parents if they could babysit her, but they declined. Instead, they said they would give her money to take her sister on the honeymoon with her, and they also offered to cover the costs of her childcare.
“We thought about it for a while and decided to take her,” she explained.
“She’s so excited for the trip and the hotel has an amazing daycare that she can go to when my fiancé and I need some time away from her.”

“My parents came over last weekend and the first thing my sister told them was that she’s coming to Hawaii with us.”
“My parents asked why and I said we couldn’t find anyone to take care of her because of how complex her needs are so we decided to take her with us.”
Her parents then tried to say that they could babysit her, but she knew they couldn’t handle it at all because they are vocal about not being able to.
On top of that, they don’t pay attention to her sensory problems, and although they like being around her that always comes to an end after only an hour in her company.
“I told them why we declined and my mom started yelling at me for “making them out to be bad parents” (they also refuse to admit that we’re her parents and hates when she calls them grandma and grandpa),” she continued.
Now, her parents are telling her that they will not be in attendance at her wedding over this, and she’s left wondering if she is somehow in the wrong for wanting to do what is best for her baby sister.
