Just because someone was your friend in first grade doesn’t mean they’ll be your friend forever. In fact, one study has found that only 10% of first grade friendships survive until the sixth grade. Sometimes, there’s that one incident that shows you your friend’s true colors.
For this 12-year-old, it was her birthday trip to New York, to which she invited said friend. But after she made the trip a living hell and later demanded that the birthday girl’s mom drive her back home, the realization probably hit. Even the mom was left feeling like a jerk and asked the Internet to back her up on whether she was being reasonable in telling the little Karen’s mom to come get her so that the whole trip wouldn’t be ruined.
