My Golden Brother Hired A Private Investigator To Expose Me As A Failure, But....-Best Reddit

[@Lenawire]

You don't own anything to your parents. It was their job as your parents to provide for you

[@andrepalomaro353]

This is true, if you feel like your parents do a good job then you are free to show your gratitude by taking care of them but, their own retirement is still their responsibility. You dont expect your kids to take care of you, not in America, in America you are your own responsibility and spending and saving irresponsibly so your children are affected and obligated to care for you? That can be seen as a failure as a parent. You should be giving your children the best chances of success, not depending on them to support you

[@RedditFamilyTales]

This view is valid in some ways, parents have a responsibility to provide for their children. However, gratitude isn’t about "owing" them; it’s about recognizing their efforts and sacrifices. Relationships thrive on mutual respect and love, not obligations. Giving back is a way to show appreciation, not pay a debt.

[@1972LittleC]

@@RedditFamilyTales Yes, but as soon as it's expected, it's not about respect or love, it's about checks and balances.

[@candicabral3767]

I hope when you are older you laugh at yourself for saying that.

[@1972LittleC]

@@candicabral3767 congratulations on having decent parents.

[@HANSTORIES-s]

Your story of founding an IT company with your partner and achieving financial independence is genuinely inspiring. It's a perfect example of 'living humbly, working efficiently.'

[@amberhoward7539]

Second story: that is abuse! The mother is emotionally and mentally abusing them!!

[@davidcoleman644]

Dayum, under 2 mins in and the shade is flying... "so called trophy wife"... ouch.

[@andrepalomaro353]

I dont think he’s actually saying she’s not pretty or whatever, “So called trophy wife” could imply he is referring to the absurdity of using a phrase like that which is seen as mysoginistic in a modern context. In short he is pointing out that the use of the phrase is weird, either because its false, or because it’s considered offensive

[@RangerSkip]

Wild to me that people can bring a life into this world (without their consent) and raise them to believe that they should be compensated for providing basic needs. I procreated, It is my responsibility and privilege to provide (at bare minimum) the basic necessities for my children to survive (to say nothing of thriving or achievement)

[@UnderworldTalesss]

In my day, we didn’t expect to be thanked for just doing our job as parents-it was simply what was done. But I also see how times have changed. Raising a child today requires so much more, and there’s a lot of pressure on parents. Some are simply doing their best, even if it doesn’t feel like enough. Providing food, shelter, and care is the absolute minimum, but it takes a village to raise a child properly

[@Benjamin-zp5ds]

​@@UnderworldTalesssno nothing in this world costs as much as raising kids. If you can afford to have kids don't have them. But don't go expecting your kids to pay you back for raising them when YOU chose to keep them.

[@everettecornwall8170]

The necessities your parents provided where their responsibility to provide. You owe them nothing.

[@RedditFamilyTales]

Thanks for watching and sharing!

[@Benjamin-zp5ds]

You owe your parents nothing unless you borrow money from them.

[@Sagasofbetrayal]

I can't believe Daisy's behavior. It's heartbreaking how she's turning the kids against you. Stay strong, and make sure you're protecting your relationship with them through this mess.

[@dekrus]

Wait hold on... so at 18:12 is this the same op or a new story???

[@beaby1977]

Yes honey, it’s a new story. I don’t know why they didn’t say story two or better yet do a whole new video on that story. look at the way it ended, and that wasn’t the end of the story.

[@toony1232]

​@@beaby1977 Money, perhaps. Are these videos monetized?

[@Ignacio.Romero]

These stories are all made up with ai, so probably they didn't check the last part of the video where the ai screwed up

[@faronrich9381]

Clothes, food, and housing are what you get at an orphanage. Parents are supposed to do much more than that.

[@mr.s2005]

so the brother was living above his means, yet had the money to hire a private investigator.

[@yeetthecow557]

Its crazy how parents try to gaslight you for payback for taking care of you for 18 years ummmmmm if you didn't you would go to jail

[@niec-ym3rx]

this does show that you dont have to be a super genius to become a milionair

[@princessmarlena1359]

Story 1: “Once upon a time, I was raised in a quit little village…of ‘Koko Kanu, New Jersey’…”

[@glenngriffon8032]

Gotta love it. Parents: You're a loathsome, pathetic loser who will always be a failure living in poverty! Huh? What's that? He's actually a _millionaire?!_ ...son! Have we ever told you how much we love and cherish and respect you? You are such a wonderful person!

[@Benjamin-zp5ds]

You do not own your parents a dime for them taking care of you till you were able to to it yourself. Your parents chose to keep the baby and raise it. If anyone reading this has ever had a mom or dad ask for you to pay them back then pleqse cut off all ties. They do not care about you at all. They obly care about money. Btw this usually happens in instances exactly like this.

[@mrjohnthedestroyer]

It was their job as your parents to provide for you

[@ChatABT]

Bro this stories have GOT to be ai almost every one of them have the same situations and words and descriptions. Like who tf says the word vindicated this often?

[@cafelatte1124]

But then again, same human behaviors occur over and over. You really won’t get any new strange patterns you’ve never seen. This was the norm even before the AI boom.

[@EggyEkki]

Sometimes these channels steal real, short stories and run them through an AI to make them beefier so that they can make for longer videos. And since a lot of the popular stories are also overused, people have been translating similar posts in foreign languages to English using AI, too. Regardless, you're probably right, definitely AI.

[@bobbymoore8]

This story never gets old.

[@vernaclevinger5716]

You know how they feel about you and will treat you. If you run back to them for this treatment its your choice.

[@BrokenxMorals]

Background vid- why are there pills on a racetrack? Lol

[@romain8390]

This story sounds ultra fishy to me. Like, OOP can’t understand the reason to keep going to these family meet ups? I think I know why, either the story is fake, or OOP obviously revels in their ignorance of his financial success. He’s talking about how he finds it hard to talk about his career because he thinks his parents and family wouldn’t approve? Are you kidding? Even the most strict tiger or African parents if their child went into a field like IT that was new, innovative, ubiquitous, in-demand, and earned a lot of money, and owned his own company which sold for hundreds of thousands if not a million or more would have nothing to say in disapproval. Story just makes no sense and sounds very fake.

[@boltcat]

They have supper every Sunday night, the travel is 90-120 minutes 1 way, and he said the "talk" takes several hours. Who has time to do that on a Sunday night, when everyone has to work the next day? Totally AI garbage.

[@boblaism]

So you dont tell your family what you've been doing for years and are somehow surprised they think you're still that same guy working at the comic book store? Im not saying you had to tell them you're a millionaire, but they didn’t even know where you live.

[@ThorsHammer-dy6ri]

he did say in the story that he had told them multiple times before that he didn't work there anymore because the store had closed in 2011, they just kept not listening. He probably gave up telling them at some point and let them assuming what they'd already been told wasn't true multiple times because it was easier than constantly correcting them.

[@andrepalomaro353]

Dawg he cleary tried to tell them but the family created their own narrative constantly. OP says they told their family the comic book store closed down in 2011, but they only believed what suits them over time, they remember what they wanted to, what fit their worldview and opinion of their kid

[@Sonicishellagoated]

Here's the thing most of these so-called reddit stores are ai generated of the original version

[@Timmyxyt]

Did they like change story mid way cuz first he says Ava now it's daisy and now he is a cop ? 19:00

[@natasharoberts4430]

This is all I have to say: “parents need to stop expecting their children to repay them back for doing their job” sorry not sorry but that mentality needs to stop because children don’t owe their parents anything

[@alexisdipoalo9443]

At least have whoever's writing these read them before having the AI read them

[@jimivey6462]

“buy sexual”? Back in the day, we just called that prostitution.

[@PaulineBarnatt]

I couldn't read this for two reasons: One - the background was just too distracting. Two - the huge text that flicks up words one or two at at time instead of being complete sentences. It gave me a headache straining to keep the story together without continuity of text. Maybe rething your formatting. I might have enjoyed this if the text was normal.

[@RedditFamilyStories]

While it's heartbreaking to hear stories like this, it’s worth questioning whether airing such private family matters publicly helps resolve them or just adds fuel to the fire. Maybe focusing on building a healthier future privately would have been a better move than dragging everyone through the mud online. Just my two cents.

[@bower31]

What's really heartbreaking is these stories not being real lol

[@RedditFamilyStories]
