AITA for pulling my $8,000 wedding gift after my granddaughter cut her Uncle from the list?
My Granddaughter Emily (24F) is getting married in June. Ruth and I set aside $8,000 for the venue, been saving since she was born near about. Two weeks ago I find out she took her Uncle Dale (my Son, 46M) off the guest list. Dale and Emily had a falling out three years back over some equipment he borrowed and never returned right, wasnt even that big a thing if you ask me. I told Emily straight, family is family, if Dale aint there the check aint coming either. She cried and called me controlling. Her Mother, my daughter Karen (49F), got on the phone and said I was holding her daughters wedding hostage over an old grudge that wasnt even mine to hold. Ruth thinks I went too far, says the money was a gift not a bribe. Now Emily wont answer my calls and Karen posted something in the family group chat about Grandpas need to control everything even from the porch. Dale himself hasnt said a word either way. Farm work dont stop for family fights but this ones sitting heavy on me this week.
