She Actually Objected At Her Mom’s Wedding And Made Her Cry As She Read A Speech On Why Her Mom And Fiancé Aren’t Right For Each Other

Have you ever heard anyone actually “object” during a wedding ceremony for one reason or another?
One teenager recently objected to her mom’s recent marriage to her new stepdad because she was abused by him and couldn’t stand him.
She’s 19-years-old, and her mom is 48. Her parents divorced 14 years ago, which she later discovered happened because her mom was cheating on her dad with her boyfriend, Joe.
“To make things worse, Joe is also her boss at the law firm they work [for],” she explained.
“So, when she introduced me to him for the first time, I wasn’t his biggest fan. However, to my surprise, I grew to like him as we spent more time together. I thought he and my mom seemed to work well together despite their rocky start. But that all changed one night when I got into a fight with my mom.”
That night, she and her mom were arguing like a typical mom and angsty teenager. The fight began to escalate a bit, and when she went to throw her hands up in frustration, she felt Joe physically grab her and pull her away from her mom.
Frightened, she began slapping at Joe’s arms, which resulted in him putting her in a chokehold-like position. Her mom screamed for him to stop, and when he finally released her, she ran away and called the police.
Somehow, her mom decided to stay with Joe despite that awful night. She decided to move in with her dad full-time and tried to press charges against Joe. However, because her mom defended Joe’s honor, the charges were dropped.
“I was forced to move back to my mom’s half-time,” she said.

“We did family therapy, but I’m still afraid of him. After the incident, their relationship was considerably more strained, and they fought about everything.”
“I would hear him scolding her about her forgetfulness and [him] telling her she wasn’t useful enough around the house. She confessed to me that she felt like a useless housewife, completely inadequate compared to him. It revolted me.”
She was so confused about why her mom was letting Joe walk all over her, and she became even more confused when her mom announced she would marry him a while back.
She debated whether or not she should go to the wedding for a while, but her mom begged her to go. That’s when she knew she’d have to say something during the ceremony to get her mom to see clearly.
“When the minister asked if anybody objected to their marriage, I stood up and read the short speech I had prepared on why I thought she and Joe weren’t right for each other,” she recalled.
“Everybody fell quiet, and my mom burst into tears at the altar, asking me why I couldn’t just be happy for her and support her. But I couldn’t let her marry him after everything that had happened.”
Was it a bad idea to publicly call out her mom, or was it the right thing to do?
