10-Year-Old Niece Scolded Her Grandparents After Finding Out That They Purposely Don't Invite Her Gay Uncle To Christmas Gatherings

by Chelsi

Kids can be brutally honest and they spare no mercy when they decide to confront you with the truth. They have less filter and sometimes it’s very much not prompted.

They’ll leave you speechless and unfortunately, their parents are the bear the brunt of their candidness. Getting blamed for encouraging their kids’ honesty.

Have you ever been called out and scolded by a kid? If not then this story from a Redditor under the subreddit ‘AITAH’ can give you an idea.

OP has been disowned by his parents for being gay and hasn’t had contact with them for about eight years. Despite this, he has remained close with his sister and niece.

It was a tradition of his parents to hold Christmas gatherings wherein he wasn’t always invited but his sister and niece still attend it. He doesn’t miss out on celebrating Christmas though, because after a day or two he, his sister, and niece have a small gathering.

His niece has always been curious about why he kept missing out on his parents’ Christmas event for years and she took it upon herself to ask him. When she shot the question, he gave her the same excuse that he used which was, he had to work.

His niece figured out that his excuse didn’t add up since she knew he had his day off during Christmas.

She eventually got upset by his lie and asked sadly if the actual reason for his absence was because he didn’t want to be with them.

OP wouldn’t have said anything if she didn’t ask that, so in his calmest voice, he explained how his parents don’t agree with who he is and so they asked him not to go to their gatherings.

OP’s parents came at his sister for letting his niece keep in touch with him.

They yelled at her and OP’s sister told him he shouldn’t have told his niece anything so it would’ve prevented the family fight.

OP didn't do anything that would purposely damage his sister's relationship with their parents. Even if they did disown him for his preference of partners.

Both his sister and parents should take after what his niece did. She called out the wrong and was smart enough to understand that it wasn't tolerable.

Do you think OP should've told his niece what he did or should've lied? Let us know in the comments.
