A heartbreaking Reddit post titled \u201cAITA for telling my parents I will plan for a life without them?\u201d has users siding with the OP after hearing about their unfortunate circumstances. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Reddit\u2018s popular Am I The A******? Normally, the community is divided over the original poster’s fault. But in the case of the viral post, readers are unanimous. <\/p>\n

The post has been removed by subreddit moderators so here\u2019s the low-down. <\/p>\n

\u2018AITA for telling my parents I will plan for a life without them\u2019 Reddit post gives insight into \u2018saddening\u2019 family dynamics <\/h2>\n

In August, a 16-year-old male teen explained his current family circumstances, which users have dubbed as \u201cunfair\u201d. <\/p>\n

OP is his parents\u2019 second biological child, but he is the oldest sibling as his biological sister passed away before he was born. His mom is unable to carry more children after OP\u2019s birth so his parents have resorted to fostering and later adopting children.<\/p>\n

OP and his parents are now adopting five under-ten year old children. <\/p>\n

The post continues explaining that OP\u2019s parents are proactive in the younger siblings\u2019 education and school life; they attend their talent shows and extracurricular activities, but miss all of OP\u2019s important events. <\/p>\n

\u201cMy dad even said the free curricula I attend don\u2019t really do major games anyway so what\u2019s the big deal?\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the poster, he is unable to participate in paid activities and school trips as the money is prioritized over his siblings\u2019 experiences. <\/p>\n

In May, OP \u201cbroke\u201d and explained that he \u201chated them sometimes\u201d for neglecting him. <\/p>\n

The Reddit post adds: \u201cThere are times I have wished we could go back to them not adopting kids. I told them I felt like I got shafted by them adding to the family and that having siblings didn\u2019t make up for everything else.\u201d<\/p>\n

There was a positive outcome from the confrontation as his parents promised \u201cit would not happen again\u201d and set aside money for OP\u2019s upcoming international school trip.<\/p>\n

Recently, however, his parents received a request to adopt the sister of an adopted child. They are keen since they do not want to split the siblings, but that would mean spending OP\u2019s trip funding on the adoption instead. <\/p>\n

His parents promised to \u201cmake it up\u201d to OP but he is convinced that there will be no time or funds to do so. <\/p>\n

\u201cI told them, \u2018I now know I\u2019m not their priority if they do this and they won\u2019t have my support and I will check out and start planning a life without them,\u201d the post states. <\/p>\n

OP’s parents and grandparents think he has been unfair. <\/p>\n

Redditors encourage OP to save for his future <\/h2>\n

All comments have ruled OP as Not The A****** as they believe the parents should not have adopted more kids if they are unable to care for all siblings equally. <\/p>\n

A comment reads: \u201cNTA if your parents need to neglect one child to take care of the others they are not fit to be raising so many children.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNTA. Go on your trip, and save your money for when you make your escape to college,\u201d a second Redditor commented. <\/p>\n

A third reader advised: \u201cNTA. Keep your head down and work hard. (Don’t tell anyone about my wages or how much time I spent working, if you don’t have a separate bank account, I wouldn\u2019t let them know) And save money to help plan my escape.<\/p>\n

Another person suggested that the parents may be prioritizing the adopted children over OP as \u201cthey feel these kids had it way worse.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI do not think your parents will change, but I think it\u2019s a good idea to save up and get out as fast as possible, preferably far away from everyone,\u201d the response reads.<\/p>\n

The post has been removed by AITA moderators as it violates Rule 11, which prohibits posts involving \u201ccutting contact with family members\u201d. <\/p>\n
