AIBU All hell broke loose over UCAT

DS is applying for Medicine and needs to book his UCAT. He wanted to book a particular date, but DH, who believes in astrology, was pressuring him to book the day before instead (he refused to pay for the selected date) because he thinks it's a better date.

I agree this shouldn't be forced on DS. However, DS completely lost his temper. He said astrology was "bullshit", that this was his future and none of DH's business, that we had nothing to do with his future, that everything he'd achieved was thanks to him and not us and that we havent helped DS17 at all.

AIBU to be really upset by how he spoke? I completely understand disagreeing with astrology but DS17 showed zero gratitude or respect for everything we've done to support him.

Hi gang,
We've had a couple of reports in suggesting that this poster might not be quite who they say they are and, well, we had a look and they're certainly no longer with us. Of course those wishing to debate the hypothetical or discuss the finer points of medicine and its relationship with the stars are welcome to do so.
