This Reddit Wednesday episode discusses the subreddit r/entitledparents, where parents who believe they deserve special treatment are the focus. The host shares a story from a user named Fako5045 titled "You disinherited me", where a family member is disinherited due to their homosexuality. The family member was not invited to the wedding, and the grandparents, who had disinherited the family member in their will, sought compensation for the wedding. The host and co-host Luba discuss the story, expressing disbelief at the family's actions and the grandparents' attempts to reclaim the inheritance. They emphasize that the inheritance is the family member's to spend as they wish, and the family's attempts to control the situation are not valid. The host and Luba express hope that the family will come to understand the negative impact of their actions and the potential for happiness if they allow the couple to be part of their lives. The episode concludes with the host expressing hope for the couple's happiness and a wish for the family to experience the joy of a happy wedding.
