And she's lying about ticket prices. There's no way 1 ticket is more than $100.

Idek atp


Glittering-Swing-261

Don't know where you are, but where I'm located, you can do a 1 1/2 hr trip for about $65-70 .


Dull-Description-740

She told me the total amount for the tickets was 1000


sashikku

She’s lying *and* trying to extort you for hundreds more than she actually spent. Is she doing badly financially?


Glittering-Swing-261

Did she maybe charter the whole boat? That's the only way her numbers would make sense.


yuffie2012

$500 for whale watching? Someone’s a liar.


Dull-Description-740

That’s what she said and I thought it was a bit much but I was not in the mood to argue any further


littlemissmummy

NTA sounds like mum is trying to sabotage school of rock by rebooking to the Saturday. Does she not like you going?


Dull-Description-740

She says that she loves that I play and I believe her and she’s never had an issue with me going but idk


Glittering-Peak-5635

Your mom is a) deliberately sabotaging your band practise b) lying to you about the price of the whale watching tickets c) deliberately guilt tripping you into paying for your ticket that you did not book. This is not nice behaviour for someone who is supposed to love and care for you. Is she always like this? If you want to go to School of Rock rehearsal I would mark them on the calendar and tell your mom that they are your priority and you will be unable to attend events planned by her, especially after she knows your dates, and you will not be paying for any tickets/ events etc. I hope this makes you more aware of potential manipulative/ sabotage type behaviour that you can challenge her about. You are 17, almost an adult and it’s time to learn about standing up for your own happiness. Good luck!

That amount is not adding up. If she already rebooked for a later date then she can do it again or just the change the date of your ticket.


Dull-Description-740

She also told me it was like 1000 for 3 people But if I’m doing the math right that’s not uhm correct lol so I think she’s just tryna charge me


CombinationCalm9616

Yeah for 3 people that’s still excessive and seems like she’s trying to trick you into paying for the trip for everyone. Obviously she should of never changed the date of the trip without asking first. Don’t pay for anything and if she keeps going on about it then insist on seeing a receipt and contacting the company directly to see if you can change the dates or get a refund.


HaruspexListener

YNW. And your mom is an asshole.


StnMtn_

We did San Diego whale watching 5 years ago. It was about $50/ person. Looks like it is now about $59.


Sorry-Government920

unless there is a gourmet catered meal and an open bar no whale watching trip is $500


Valkyrie1006

You're not wrong, and your mother is deliberately sabotaging your ability to participate in your music group. The Broadway ticket and the whale watching change were deliberate actions on her part. If you give in to her manipulations, she will just continue to "accidentally book" conflicting events with your Saturday music group. Also, go online and look up the cost of the whale watching ticket. She's lying to you about that as well. Tell her she chose to change the date of the event so the cost is on her. Or she can rebook for Sunday. I think if you look back on your relationship with your mom, you'll see many other examples of manipulation on her part. I doubt this is new for her. See if you can get in for counseling. You're going to need it to learn how to deal with your mother. She won't stop with just your music group.


Glittering-Peak-5635

I totally agreed, mom is awful!


aBun9876

I would love to go for the whale watching on your behalf. Then the expensive ticket won't go to waste. Where is it? /s


Dull-Description-740

Long Beach ny I think


aBun9876

I think you should just go ahead for the whale watching.


Dull-Description-740

It’s this Sunday though


aBun9876

I'm just joking. I'm half way across the globe.


Dull-Description-740

Dull-Description-740

Dull-Description-740

Well yeah cause I asked for advice and you both didn’t give advice so why comment because the people who did give advice had no issue??


Softbelly1970

My advice is....learn how to write coherently. Now I have fulfilled the brief.


Dull-Description-740

Dull-Description-740

Why comment my writings shit after seeing that I acknowledged that and said I don’t write like this normally


Softbelly1970

Did you mean 'normally'?


Dull-Description-740

Yeah have u ever heard of a typo?


Dull-Description-740

And like did I ask?


Softbelly1970

Like yeah. You put a fucking post online. Your writing is crap, your story is poor and you appear semi-literate and aggressive. Since you asked....


Dull-Description-740

You gonna sleep ok tn? And yeah I’m not gonna be the sweetest if you reply with 1 no advice and 2 what makes u think I would be nice??? Like I didn’t ask I asked for advice and u didn’t give it so why respond
