You know how some people act like the world owes them something just for existing?
They waltz through life expecting VIP treatment while the rest of us are just trying to survive another Monday.
Thats when the entitlement levels go through the roof.
The OPs brother is married to Candace, who has a 7-year-old, Kaylee, from a previous relationship.
Now, Candaces ex is nowhere to be found, so shes flying solo on the wholeparentingthing.
They didnt have to, but they wanted to.
The moment Candace caught wind of this fund, she went into full meltdown mode.
According to her, Kaylee should be getting a college fund, too, because shes technically their granddaughter.
But the OPs parents didnt see it that way.
So, what did Candace do?
Did she calmly accept reality and move on?
She called OPs parents and straight-up demanded they fix the situation by tossing some cash Kaylees way.
Now, if the OP had a superpower, it was shutting down nonsense at record speed.
She gave Candace a hard Nope, leaving her entitled sister-in-law to rethink her next move.
But where doesentitlementcome from?

We asked Travers how entitlement develops.
By recognizing the root causes of our entitled behavior, we can begin to address and change it.
Entitlement can become problematic when it stems from emotional deprivation in childhood.
We wanted to know if entitlement is more common among certain personality types.
However, entitlement alone does not indicate a mental health condition.
We asked Travers what was the best way to enforce boundaries with an entitled person.
Check out the results:
