Beyond the fact that she is stealing from her own children just so she can HUGELY favor ONE grandchild over all of her children and grandchildren, how can she not see the insanely huge wedge she is putting between herself and her other grandchildren? I would seriously not want anything to do with a grandparent like that. I honestly would not have any kind of relationship with that grandparent ever again. She would be showing me straight up that she not just favors that other grandchild, but that she has ZERO love for any of the rest of us.
AITJ For Saying My Sister Is Childish?

Thats like saying that you shouldn't take your kid to the doctor for a broken arm because there are other kids dying of cancer. Just because others have it worse, that doesn't mean that you should negate how awful the kid(s) are being. The parents have already shown that they won't do anything to help any situation. Their response just shows even more that they wouldn't have done anything if authorities hadn't been brought into the situation.
Sorry kid, but you are beyond jerk, you are a major AH. Idk what your actual problem is besides jealousy, but you should figure it out, quickly. Or else you will never have a relationship with your sister. How do I know? Because I had a sister a lot like you. We have not been teenagers for over 30 years and even tho I have tried over the years, multiple times, she is always the same. So I gave up and we simply don't talk anymore. Even now, we are the only ones left in our initial family, both parents and 2 other sisters have passed. I still do not want her in my life.
Either no jerks here or everyone is a little bit of a jerk. But the friend? SHE is definitely a jerk. You can obviously have your wedding any way you want. But even you admit that you are glad your mom came because being present at any major life event is important to you both. Parents are allowed to feel the same way about their sons wedding as they do a daughter. For some reason you want to be upset with them while being grateful for what they did at the same time. I totally understand about losing your father. I lost mine Jan 1 2021 and I was a total daddy's girl. In his last year or so he had grown even more sentimental and would tell me I was the "most like him" and "you were my first born". I then lost my mom in Nov 2021 and my younger sister 6 months after that. So I DO understand the grief, there are days that it's hard to breathe. But grant the in-laws some grace.
