It’s sad when family conflicts quickly turn into emotional battles.

The following story involves a young woman who clashed with her mother who decided to give her bed to her younger sister without telling her.

The situation escalated into a huge fight, which led to her mother not joining her in the graduation ceremony.

Instead of celebrating her milestone, what followed was a series of emotional stress and painful family conflict.

Read the full story below for all the details.

AITA my mom kicked me out and took my bed

I (18F) and my mom (49F) got into a fight. She kicked me out during my graduation.

She took my queen-size bed and gave it to my 12-year-old sister, who had a full bed.

She gave me my little sister’s old bed. She did this when I was out of town six hours away for a week.

She failed to tell me until the day before I came back.

This young woman found her room all messed up.

When I got home, my room was a disaster.

I have OCD and am a clean freak. I get anxiety when my area is a mess.

My family knows this. I expressed to my mom that I wanted my bed back.

I tried to have a sit-down conversation. It led to her yelling at me.

She and her mom constantly argued about it.

After a few days of constant fighting, I told my mom she was not walking with me on the field at graduation.

She was mad, but I said that was the deal until I got my bed back.

I then proceeded to stop talking to my mom completely.

Every word I said turned into a fight.

She got emotonal when her mom left halfway through the graduation ceremony.

As I was in line about to walk on the field, she texted me.

She told me I was no longer allowed on her property or anywhere near the house.

I started bawling my eyes out because of it. My friends calmed me down.

About halfway through the ceremony, she left.

She did not watch me get my diploma or anything.

She learned that her mom bought her little sister a new queen sized bed.

About a week later, my oldest sister sent me a picture.

It showed my little sister’s brand-new queen-size bed that my mom bought her.

It had a new frame and everything.

My bed is now in storage, and they will not let me have it.

Her mom acted as if nothing happened.

My mom called me a few weeks later.

Ever since then, she has acted like it never happened.

She randomly throws it in my face that I did not let her walk with me.

AITA?

Seriously, this situation sounds like it’s much bigger than a bed.

It honestly feels like the mom has favoritism and is favoring the youngest sister.

Poor OP, she had to march alone at her graduation.
