She Canceled Her Daughter’s 16th Birthday Bash After Her Daughter Made A Cruel Video About Her Husband On TikTok
A 48-year-old woman has 2 children that she had with her ex-husband Marco, and they are 13-year-old Liam and 15-year-old Pam.
After she and Marco got divorced, she got remarried to Bruce 11 years ago, and they had 9-year-old Annie together.
Now, Marco and Bruce couldn’t be more different; they’re basically polar opposites. Marco is a construction worker who plays softball every weekend and also coaches Pam’s soccer team.
Bruce is a professor at a college, and in his free time, he enjoys playing piano, baking, cooking, and attending the theater.
When Pam does have a soccer game, they all go together, and when Pam’s game is done, she and Bruce invite Pam’s whole team back to their house to have cupcakes and cookies that Bruce has baked.
Also, Bruce will make elaborate dinners for Pam’s teammates and their parents at the end of the soccer season.
For every one of her children’s birthdays, Bruce pulls out all the stops to make them amazing cakes.
This February, Pam’s turning 16, and Bruce has been planning an incredible cake that speaks to all of Pam’s hobbies and stages of her life so far.
“The other day another mom sent me a link to a TikTok that Pam and several of her teammates did,” she explained.
“It uses audio from an episode of Family Guy. It’s a video of Bruce taking a cake out of the oven with “Chocolate cake, a la Blake,” playing in the background, followed by a cut to my daughter and her teammates with Pam holding up her hand and mouthing along to, “Hundred bucks, Blake is gay,” out of the side of her mouth. When I confronted Pam, she said it was just a joke. I told her that it wasn’t funny, Bruce saw her and treated her like his daughter, and it was disrespectful to both of us. She told me that I was overreacting.”
She let Pam know that if she did not remove the video and issue an apology to Bruce, she would make sure that Bruce canceled the cake he was going to make. Pam rolled her eyes at her in response and said she would comply. Not long after she confronted Pam about the video, she was walking past her bedroom and overheard Pam talking to someone on the phone.
Although she couldn’t hear everything that Pam was saying clearly, she did hear Pam accuse her of being overdramatic before saying more nasty things about Bruce, including a very derogatory term for gay men.
She walked into Pam’s bedroom and demanded that she hang the phone up. Pam did do this, but she claimed she was just venting.
“I called her a spoiled ungrateful brat and how dare she use that word,” she said. “She started crying and said she didn’t mean it. I told her that her birthday party is canceled, there will be no sweet sixteen, and that I was going to tell Bruce to stop baking for the team and that we would never do a team dinner again.”
“I am still so angry. Marco told me that I need to let it go, that I’m expecting too much from a teenager, and that he would have a party for her if I didn’t. Bruce was hurt when he found out but thinks that we should still let her have her party. My sister tells me not to doubt myself and that I made the right call, but I wonder if I’m acting with too much hot blood.”
Do you think canceling Pam’s 16th birthday bash was the right thing to do?
