Bride Wants To Ban Child With ADHD From Her Wedding And Sparks Rage
Weddings are the golden moments for souls. They ensure the best to live it to the full. From decoration to food, everything shimmers at its best to adorn the occasion. But the guest list part makes things a bit tricky to handle for them. It is not a surprise to find people dropping off many names to keep their wedding celebration in order. But a bride-to-be crossed the limit after she expressed her wish to bar a girl with ADHD from her wedding.
The woman is all set to tie her knot by the next April. She has plans cropping up in her mind. Not just that, she also started looking for a perfect wedding guest list. Taking on that, she got in touch with her friends and relatives. It was then that one of her cousins asked to make an additional reservation for her boyfriend. Going ahead, she told her that she also wanted her boyfriend’s daughter (having ADHD) to join them for the wedding.
But the bride-to-be was not comfortable in fulfilling that demand. She did not want the girl to be a part of her wedding because she knew neither her father nor her. Also, she was concerned about her disrupting the function with her misbehavior. Confused over the matter, she went to seek help and the opinions of other people by taking it to Mumsnet.
Shedding light on the matter, she said, “My cousin has a relatively new boyfriend who I haven’t met and he has a daughter around eight or nine who I also haven’t met. Apparently the girl has ADHD and is not very well behaved.”
Taking on her cousin’s plan, she shared, “She just wants to come for the holiday as I live quite far away and it will be a family holiday for her because they’re renting an Airbnb with a pool etc. I feel quite bad saying no but feel like I don’t want a kid who a) I don’t know and b) may be badly behaved??” Adding to that, she said, “I’m not anti-ADHD at all, in fact about six of the kids coming have ADHD/ autism/ special needs, but the point is we know them and have a relationship with them.”
Her post stirred criticism around the platform. The social media users came up to ridicule her move and insensitivity. Taking on that part, one person commented, “To start with, the way you speak about this child is horrible. Secondly, it’s fairly common for a bride and groom not to have met everyone at their wedding, as partners of work colleges or friends will come who’ve you’ve never met.” The soul further added, “If you didn’t want an issue with ‘not knowing’ everyone then you shouldn’t have invited your cousin with a plus one, who you say, you aren’t close to.”
Another person said, “Your wedding, your choice. But you’ve made some big assumptions (she can easily stay with mum), and to be honest you sound a bit mean. If you’re going on the basis you don’t know her, and you’ve also said you’re not close to your cousin then don’t invite either of them.”
Thus, there was no acceptance of her idea of banning the girl.
