'Entitled' stepmum slammed for using stepdaughter's real name despite her hating it

Parents have slammed an 'entitled' stepmother after she repeatedly refused to call a child by her preferred nickname - and saw no problem with her actions. The 'rude' parent, as she was dubbed by social media users, confessed to her behaviour in a post to Reddit.

Explaining why she doesn't think she's in the wrong, the woman said she loves her stepdaughter's name. "Her actual name is so pretty," she said, speaking of her 15-year-old stepdaughter.

But for the six years she's known her, the youngster has always preferred her nickname 'EJ'. A combination of her initials, it's the name used by the teen's dad, teachers, and friends.
