AIBU - I've taken my present back...

[charliebearr]

Bought my son (he is 23) a second hand car for Christmas (a very very OTT present from me).

It was a complete surprise.

I couldn't give him the gift on xmas morning as the car needed a final check before we took it but, he was told earlier in the year if he passed his test we would think about getting him a car.

Christmas morning came & I had a token gift ready and of course no mention of the car. He was noticeably irritated about it. His behaviour towards the day deteriorated so steeply I put him out of the house around midnight until he cooled off. He told me it was all too do with the car etc.

The car arrived today. He seen the car but, didn't come down but, my partner said he was taking photos of it from inside gearing up to come out. I called the garage back and got someone to come lift it and have cancelled the contract since. AIBU?

Oh my. Sounds like he's a twat and you're a deranged narcissist. You really do never know what goes on behind closed doors hey

Op bought her son the biggest present he is ever going to get and she wanted to see the surprise on his face when he saw it therefor she is a narcissistic?
Wtaf?

Part of the joy of giving surprise presents is seeing the look on the recipients face. We all do it at xmas seeing our kids faces light up is fab.

Guess we are all fecking narcissists then!

Sometimes i think mn is a doorway to the twilight zone.

Why are people making things up about op?
She NEVER promised a car for xmas. She said they would consider getting him a car after he passed his test.
THERE WAS NO PROMISE OF A CAR FOR XMAS.

HE got £££S worth of presents at xmas yet it wasnt good enough for him.

He kicked off like a toddler ruining xmas for everyone. He would have got fuck all else from me too.

God help the sons of posters who think its acceptable to throw a tantrum at 23 rant and swear and threaten other adults but he still deserves a freaking car!!!

Your son sounds like a spoilt, entitled brat.
