A Reddit user, 26, is seeking advice from other users concerning a mind-blowing family issue. The poster explained that for four years, she had owned a golden retriever whom she named Charlie. However, her sister, Emily, recently became a mom who decided to adopt the dog’s name, Charlie, for her baby.
However, the poster did not think much of the decision until her sister warned her to change the animal’s name. During a family gathering, Emily referred to her sister as selfish while pushing for the name change. It didn’t make any sense to the poster who blatantly refused. Despite the new mom claiming that it would be confusing and disrespectful, her sister argued her point.
She explained that changing the name would be tasking and include paperwork. Consequently, the girls’ parents are divided on the name fight. Emily’s dad believes that his daughter shouldn’t be asked to rename her dog because of baby Charlie. As for his wife, she is not entirely convinced that Emily is right, however, she wants peace to reign. Thus, the sisters’ mom wants the 26-year-old to comply.
This is a sentiment other family members hold as they have told the poster that her choice is selfish. Meanwhile, Emily is keeping her distance and has refused to speak to her. On the other hand, most people who reacted to the post felt that the new mom was selfish and controlling. The comments mostly agreed with the poster who has long refused to bulge.
