A concerned father recently shared his struggle on Reddit about his 16-year-old daughter’s increasingly negative behavior. He and his wife noticed a significant change in their daughter’s attitude after she started hanging out with a new group of friends at school.

What used to be a polite and well-behaved daughter had now turned into a mean-spirited teenager, making negative comments about people and their belongings.

Worried about the impact their daughter’s behavior might have on others, the father tried multiple times to address the issue with her, but his attempts fell on deaf ears. The situation escalated when their housemaid became the target of their daughter’s insults and offensive name-calling. Finally, the housemaid reached her breaking point and reported the teenager’s behavior to her employers.

The father had warned his daughter that any further misbehavior towards the housemaid would result in an undesirable consequence. However, his daughter continued her disrespectful behavior, which ultimately led to her being grounded and prohibited from attending a party. In a surprising turn of events, she later approached her father claiming to have lost her phone, only for it to ring from the housemaid’s bag.

Caught red-handed, the daughter was left speechless. The father apologized to the housemaid for his daughter’s behavior, granted her the day off, and confronted his daughter with the video evidence. He expressed his disappointment, emphasizing how her actions were not only immoral, but also offensive to tamper with someone’s livelihood over something trivial like a party.
