A woman sent her parents to Hawaii for a holiday, but their response soon had her turning to the internet to judge who was being a jerk. The woman posted anonymously to a Facebook page called “Am I The A**hole?” where people share stories of relational issues and ask members to dish out a verdict. In the post, the woman said she gifted her parents a five-day trip to Kauai , Hawaii, “as a thank you basically for my mom helping me so much with all of my kids when I had my 4th baby”.
She and her husband covered the cost of flights , accommodation and rental car and lined up the holiday during her parents’ 36th wedding anniversary.

Not a thank you or even an appreciate or positive remark,” she wrote. Angered by her parents’ response, the woman wanted to know whether her feelings were justified in response to “so many messages just complaining”. In the post shared on June 13, the woman attached a screenshot of her texts to one of her parents, who sent her a photo of an Eftpos machine showing US$104 ($170) followed by several “shocked” emojis.
“Quit your complaining you’re in paradise on a free vacation,” the daughter replied with a laughing/crying emoji. “Our CHEAPEST meal was $40,” the parents quipped back, addi.
