AUNTYVENTION

🫂 Is he a good dad? A father cancelled his daughter's birthday mid celebration after she got her period, leaked and was too embarrassed to continue. He then took away $250 of her birthday money to teach her about "consequences". Her mum and family were furious. Was this parenting or punishment without compassion?

ENEMIES OF PROGRESS

🚩 A stepmother forcing her stepchild to call her "Mum". You can build a loving relationship with a child, but can you demand the title?

🚩 Joanna Wietrzyk, after the Hyrox world champion continued competing after soiling herself mid race. How badly do you need to win?!

🚩 Black girls walking barefoot down the street! Farrah and AK witnessed heels in hands and bare feet on the pavement and couldn't believe their eyes. Some traditions must be preserved. Gen Z, Gen Alpha ... fix up.
