Today, my MIL said she had a surprise for my toddler. She brought 5 baby chicks as a gift to my toddler. She apparently felt bad because my toddler didn't have a pet while the cousin just got a cat. This is after I specifically said I didn't want to get my toddler a pet yet. Because 1, we live in a 1 bedroom condo in the city without a balcony, 2, my toddler is 3 and cannot take care of a pet yet, 3, I work all the day long.
I told her we were going to give it away and she called me up. She said I was being dramatic and they're just baby chicks so they're going to die in 2 weeks anyways. She also said that my toddler was so happy when he saw his gift. OF COURSE HE WAS HAPPY ABOUT IT. Children always are!
By the way, she brought them to our condo in a cardboard box with holes without water and food. My toddler is broken hearted about sending them away, and now I'm the bad guy. But I feel like I have to stand my ground... so AITA?
These have to be AI written at this point right? The prompt is something along the lines of, "Make a story in first person view about a family member doing something bat shit insane, and I feel bad about being a normal adult with boundaries. I question if I am the asshole."
