She Doesn’t Want Her Half Sister To Attend Christmas Because It’s The First Holiday Her Parents Are Spending Together In 10 Years Following Her Dad’s Affair
When this 25-year-old woman was about 15-years-old, her father had an affair and wound up having another daughter– who is now 10-years-old.
This affair ultimately caused her dad and mom to get a divorce, and her mom moved to a different country after the split.
Then, once she and her brother spent a year living with her dad, they decided to follow their mom and move to the new country.
Nowadays, though, her parents are on good terms again. So, she and her 24-year-old brother, as well as her mom, decided that they would be traveling to spend Christmas with her dad this year.
“This is also the first Christmas that they have spent together in 10 years,” she said.
That’s why they planned the whole thing around her immediate family without even thinking about her half-sister.
Well, all of a sudden, her dad believes that they should include his other daughter since he feels bad about her being excluded.
Even so, she really doesn’t want her half-sister there since the little girl is just 10-years-old and, apparently, always has to be the center of attention.
“It also means we won’t be able to have meaningful conversations as a family, and my half sister’s really annoying,” she added.

Finally, they are having Christmas at the home of one of her mother’s relatives, meaning that her half-sister will be the odd one out. After all, she claims that no one on her mom’s side knows her half sister, let alone cares to have the 10-year-old around.
Still, despite her dad knowing that she’s not a huge fan of her half sister, he keeps trying to pressure her to like her half sister.
She, on the other hand, genuinely believes that having her dad’s other daughter there will just make the entire Christmas experience frustrating for everyone.
“And while I understand that she is also my dad’s child, seeing as my half-sister is a reminder that my family fell apart, I don’t want her there,” she vented.
“I actually don’t care if she’s upset about it.”
With her dad giving her pushback, though, she’s now wondering whether not wanting her half-sister to celebrate Christmas with her family really does make her the jerk.
Can you understand why she doesn’t want her half sister to attend on Christmas? Do you think her opinion is justified, or should she let her half sister go? What would you do if you were in her shoes?
