Is it OK to ask friend if my daughter can come to their sibling’s wedding?

[Anonymous]

Lots to unpack here...it's totally inappropriate

No, you don’t ask. Have your daughter invite a friend over.

[Anonymous]

No, sorry, OP. You can’t ask that.

She did, I also remember it. What's wrong with people not only making up these crazy scenarios, but also reposting them later?

I’m a completely different OP. My kid is 15.

No, this is rude. Seriously nobody cares if you come or not.

Totally rude. And you need to get your daughter treatment for her anxiety. How is she going to go to college if she can't be home alone for a few hours?

If she has autism or another disability -- since you mention she has no friends -- that makes it developmentally inappropriate to stay home by herself, you need to cultivate a network of sitters with teen disability experience.

No. Get a babysitter.

Your daughter needs therapy and coping skills.

And you need an etiquette class.

You’ve posted this before only your DD was younger, you said tween. Do better with your trolling.

It was a virtually identical post.

I’ve posted that that poster wasn’t me. But since it doesn’t seem ideal to ask, should I make my daughter stay home or tell my friend that I cannot attend?

Wait.

You’re your friend’s plus one.

And now you want your own plus one?

Where does it end? Should your daughter get a plus one too? And then they’ll need a plus one, and on and on. This is insanely rude, don’t do it.

Your choice. The only thing I can't figure out is the wedding is THIS weekend. Why did you wait until the last minute to freak out about your kid being home alone? I'd be pretty annoyed as your friend if you bailed now.

Make her stay home! JFC when I was 15 I was living abroad with multiple host families 3000 miles from home in a culture and language that was totally unfamiliar while balancing school and college testing, not to mention losing family and friends in terrorist attacks. She can stay in her bedroom for a couple of hours and read. The Anxious Generation indeed.
