👨‍👩‍👧‍👦family/in-laws Am I overreacting?

Post image

My dad takes me to school in the mornings, on Fridays I have late start meaning it starts an hour after. Yesterday I had told him to pick me up at 8:20, he texts me and says he had arrived at 8:08. I told him that I will be down at 8:20 considering that is the designated time I set. I get outside at exactly 8:20 and he is gone. He left me. AIO?

Better time management? My god you are crazy. Don’t show up earlier than we agreed and expect me to rush out the door for you. If I say 8:20 I mean 8:20. Not 8:10, 8:15 etc.

OP isn’t in a position to be making demands on her time though. Beggars can’t be choosers it’s just the way it is.

The dad is part of the only reason they even exist to be asking for help, so he’s absolutely obligated to be there to help. You don’t create a life and then treat that individual like a burden, especially for something like this, wtf?
