Daughter not speaking to me AIBU

[Bogstandardbob]

My daughter has decided that she is not speaking to me after taking a comment I made the wrong way. The comment was a joke but she has completely over reacted and cut me out of her life. She used to phone me once a week but I haven’t heard from her for weeks now although she’s allowed my grandchild to contact me a few times. She’s sent me an email explaining why she’s so upset but I don’t understand why she can’t see it was a joke. I haven’t contacted her at all since this happened as I don’t see that I’ve done anything wrong. She’s taken it the wrong way so what can I do? AIBU?

Why are you minimising it as a joke & her over reacting. We all react differently/have our own limits etc. Some 'jokes' are just nasty digs dressed up, which is clearly what she sees it as. You need to have empathy & accept she's hurt & apologise.

Enjoy having no relationship with your daughter. 🙋‍♀️

I could tell from the first post you weren't going to take any advice on board. You're THAT person, who thinks everyone else is the problem not you.

OP your attitude is revolting

I wouldn't phone her either if I was you. You obviously deserve someone who appreciates your jokes better.

It sounds like a nasty joke and one that would upset most children. Even if it genuinely wasn't meant hurtfully, you have clearly hurt her feelings and should want to resolve the issue. However you haven't even bothered to contact her.
