Mum branded 'cruel' for refusing to take daughter's half-sister for Christmas

A mum has been branded 'selfish and cruel' by her ex-husband after refusing to let her daughter's half-sister come over for Christmas - because her mother has cancer.

Taking to Reddit, the woman explained that she and her ex-partner divorced seven years ago and share custody of their 13-year-old daughter - while he also has another daughter, aged five, with his new wife.

With the festive season approaching, she was asked by her former partner if she could take both girls for Christmas - because his wife is suffering from cancer. However, she says that she is not responsible for his other daughter and would feel 'uncomfortable' having her over for the family celebration.
