But all her attempts to politely tell those little rascals off were laughed off by her boyfriend's mother who allowed them to continue with their shenanigans as if things could get any more awkward. Feeling in the right but not enough to calm down her heavy mind, the woman turned to the trusted AITA community to set her moral compass straight. Read on for the full story.
