The first story proves that there's a thing called Being too nice. I would've been in a shouting match to kick them out from the very beginning.

Story 1, She is the definition of entitled aunts because she wanted to be the main attraction of the trip that she was not invited to.

[mercifulmoff]

I mean if the aunt and mom were just going to pester if you didn’t allow them on the trip, just silence any phone calls you get from them or any family members and focus on the trip.

Never cave in to your family’s demands people, you only fuel their ego.

[norp]

I am literally jealous about how much patience most of the Op’s have, I would have already kicked the Aunt out in the first few days, and file a restraining order while I’m at it.

Edit: don’t know how this has likes but k

Second Story: a child should NEVER have to be beholden to a parent just because they birthed them. MIL needs to understand her son is an adult now with his own family that he needs to prioritize over her. Had similar issues with my own mother when i started living with my wife, she was used to my siblings and I dropping everything we were doing to do what she asked of us. The one time I said no to her request and pushed back when she pushed the issue it turned into a huge fight and we didn't talk for almost 6 months. after that she understood, she's no longer on the top of my priority list and can understand that my wife and children come before anyone else. OP's husband needs to man up and deal with his mother, it never should have gotten to that point because HE should have shut it down after the first time his wife made it clear to him this was making her uncomfortable.

Story 2: get some keys on all the rooms you don't want her in. I wouldn't trust a conversation about boundaries to be taken seriously because she clearly doesn't respect them as adults and they can't cut contact with her. Maybe also therapy so that maybe they don't have to resort to locking her out of rooms, since they shouldn't have to do that.

Story 1. Lesson learned. You should not have caved. You’ve known about their behavior for years. Story 2. MIL needs to to go. Your partner needs to grow up and have a stern talk with his mommy. Story 3. Ex boyfriend is a psycho. Story 4. All of this drama over a single piercing? Mom needs therapy.

There's a thing called cutting someone off at the knees. You know how every work group has an annoying hanger on? I sponsored a birthday party for one of the group and made sure to fill the table with all haste. When the pest said she couldn't wait to go I told her that the table was full and I couldn't accommodate any more guests. She said she would sit at the next table with some of the people from the full table. I explained this was banquet seating and every chair had to be filled. It finally sunk in that she wasn't invited and couldn't crash. The look on her face was priceless. She had the grace not to turn up and she was down at the mouth for a few weeks. I felt the glare of death quite a few times but after that she avoided me and my social arrangements. How sweet it is.

Story 1: the mother and husband are absolute SAINTS for dealing with the aunt and mother the whole trip, if it were me, after a day of them acting like that, I would have left them at home the next day

Story #1-
I guess next time you won't let ppl just INVITE THEMSELVES on YOUR immediate family's vacation! The OP was the ding-bat for allowing that! The aunt &even the quieter Mother sound like a couple of entitled, spoiled, Karens. What she (Auntie) did about the cars, &ruining your vacation... The OP kind of allowed it to go down like that, tho.🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🙄

"We get our wands and start wandering around" subtle pun by OP

[TheLastHylianTitan]

Christ that first story is giving me hives from my own memories with my mom. Mobility issues, entitled attitude, the need to be the center of attention - there’s a very good reason I refuse to travel with her anymore. I’m her daughter, not a therapist, servant, caretaker, maid, hired muscle or the person responsible for her own happiness and comfort. I wish I had realized this back when I was younger. I would have saved myself so much pain.

I love how in the first story the background the tank flew in the air

[wzpir]

Story 2: That boy needs some serious psychological help to break his obsession with his mommy. You will always be second to his mom, ALWAYS. 'She doesn't have anyone else, ' is on her - if she wasn't always overstepping boundaries, she'd have more people around.

[fireking]

After getting the wand they were 'wand'ering around

[gaeldiaz]

The first one they said, ”they grab the wand and start wandering around🤣🤣

[kagemaru]

1: The mom and aunt are unreasonable along with any family that sides with them. For their own sakes, OP and immediate family just need to bite the bullet and let them go.

2: The MIL is toxic and OP needs to talk to her husband about distancing. And just doing more for himself. If not, OP needs to leave him and decide childcare from there.

4: The mom has issues and is controlling AT LEAST to OP. Possibly the husband too and depending on how that went, even the former husband. I took years to begin to learn this myself: you're not responsible for your family's (bad) behavior. Kids and spouses aren't puppets.

[nattanstriker]

First story: First off respect for the couple for staying so calm and trying to fix it every time they cause trouble but dammit if you know these familly members trash you constantly cut them off! Sure it would feel shitty with giving your familly the cold shoulder but letting them just butt in is gonna ruin whatever your organising.

[xSmuggen]

I couldn't hug strangers in mascot suits, so my meal was absolutely ruined.

What a crock of shit.

My mom and I found that whole deal to be pretty creepy when I went at age 9.

[thecrunkcrew]

Dude first story was amazing i cant believe how good those parents are. They're like super heroes to their kids, forgetting about their own happiness for their kids. I hope to be as good as them one day.
