A wealthy mother who had abandoned her son a decade ago resurfaced seeking money but got an unexpected response. Redditor just_a_farmer_ shared his story on Reddit’s “Entitled Parents” sub, detailing his parents’ divorce when he was ten. His mother confessed his two younger siblings weren’t his father’s and left to pursue a lavish lifestyle.

Ten years later, his mother approached him, requesting his inheritance from his late grandfather. She argued that his sister needed the money for college. He refused, telling her to rely on her rich husband.

In a clever twist, he pretended to agree, went to his truck, and returned with a handful of pennies, saying it was the “little bit” she asked for. Enraged, his mother left in embarrassment.

Later, her new husband informed him that he was leaving her due to her extravagant spending. She demanded to go to London, and he responded with divorce papers. She had no legal recourse due to a prenuptial agreement.

Reddit users applauded the son for his witty response, and he hoped for no more family drama.
