This Woman's Estranged Father Is Trying To Bully Out Of Her Inheritance

If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it a hundred times – family and family relationships can be far more complicated than the sitcoms we grew up watching would have us believe.

Things aren’t all sunshine and roses in real life, and when money and estate dealings crop up, people’s true colors can come shining right through.

This poor girl was abandoned by her father when she was just a kid – literally he just went out for cigarettes and never came back.

Her grandmother took her in, but obviously, she’s got scars.

My father left me when I was 10, I came home from school one day and he was gone and I was alone.

My grandmother eventually took me in but that moment gave me issues that I’m still working through.

Her grandmother recently died and left OP her property. Her father thinks that it’s his right to inherit from his mother, and is pushing OP to hand over her inheritance.

But she says if her grandmother wanted him to have it, she would have left it to him, right?

My grandmother passed away and was buried a couple of weeks ago. I saw my father for the first time in 14 years at his mother’s funeral. After the will was read, we learnt that my grandmother had left me her property. My father was furious, apparently he feels he has more rights to her property than I do because she was his mother.

He’s been harassing me to hand over the property to him and promising that when he dies I can have it. I don’t want to give him the property because if my grandmother wanted him to have it she would’ve put it in her will.

Her other so-called family says sure he left her but can’t she just let bygones be bygones and refuse to honor the wishes of the only person who cared for her? Just this once?

My father has been going around telling the family that I stole his mother’s property right from under him and I’m trying to punish him for leaving me.

My family have been reaching out to tell me that even if he abandoned me that I shouldn’t forget the importance of filial piety and how being good to my father even if he isn’t good to me is what makes a good daughter.

I don’t think I’m doing anything wrong but the comments and the suggestions are beginning to wear me down.

Am I the a$$hole?

This poor girl is seriously wondering if she’s done something wrong, so let’s hear what wise words Reddit has for her this time.

This person had to bust out the bold type.
