He’s Threatening To Sue His Ex-Wife’s Stepdaughter Over A $3,000 Broken Calligraphy Brush
This thirty-eight-year-old man has been separated from his ex-wife for nearly fourteen years now.
Since the separation, his ex-wife has gone on to remarry and gain two stepdaughters, while the ex-couple also co-parents their two children.
Still, though, the man has been running into trouble with his ex-wife’s oldest stepdaughter, Ana.
His own sixteen-year-old daughter, Diane, recently picked up a new hobby– the classic art of calligraphy.
The man’s parents also gifted Diane a fude– or traditional Japanese calligraphy brush– since she performed so well in school this past year.
But, after leaving Diane at his ex-wife’s mother’s house with Ana, the new fude started some chaos.
“Diane said that Ana stole her brush and broke it,” the man explained.
“Ana says she took it with permission from Diane– which is not true; we checked. She accepted breaking it but said she would replace it with another cheap one.”
And while the ex-wife claimed the broken brush was not a big deal, the man wholeheartedly disagreed.

Plus, after the ex-wife and Ana found out how expensive the fude was to replace, they completely freaked out. Apparently, it cost three thousand dollars.
The ex-wife then berated the man for buying his daughter such an expensive item and refused to replace it– citing that the high cost would put her finances in hot water.
So, left with no choice, the man decided to threaten legal action against seventeen-year-old Ana since she had already admitted to taking and breaking the brush.
“Since then, my ex-wife, her parents, and her wife are blasting my phone, saying I could ruin Ana’s future and that I am pitting our daughters against them– ruining their relationship,” the man said.
Nonetheless, he still believes his threat is reasonable.
The man recognizes that Ana is no longer a child and thinks she should be held accountable for her actions.
Do you think the man is being reasonable, or is threatening legal action too harsh?
