Mom Asks If She Was Wrong To Refuse To Let Her Stepdaughter Use Her Deceased Daughter’s Wedding Dress
We often like or feel attached to particular things and objects for their sentimental value. They carry memories about people, places, and moments in our lives.
Imagine how special and priceless a mother considers a wedding dress worn by her daughter who tragically passed away at a young age. “It was so sudden. She was doing okay and was getting ready for her wedding that was supposed to happen the same month she passed away,” the 49-year-old mom who goes by the handle u/67099107 shared in her story on the AITA subreddit.
Now, her 23-year-old stepdaughter Zoey is getting ready to get married. “We were talking about wedding dresses and she suddenly brought up Lauren’s wedding dress,” the mom recounted. “She then said she’d like to wear it at her wedding. I felt uneasy.” Read how the whole situation evolved right below, and share your thoughts about it in the comment section.

Absolutely. No need to further explain. Mom doesn't need to justify her reason.
Load More Replies...The world would be much easier if people would accept 'no' without complaining and whining.
Also would be easier if people would have more common sense and not even ask such questions...
Load More Replies...It seems creepy and weird anyway. Even if I didn't have a personal attachment, knowing the history of the dress would be enough for me to nope on out of there. I mean, "She was so young, so looking forward to getting married and then she just died mysteriously..." "But it's so pretty! I wanna wear it!!!"
