AITA for telling my daughter I will help her out with her next wedding? (2024)

A father’s unconventional offer to help his daughter prepare for her fourth wedding has sparked a debate on the internet. The daughter has been married thrice, and her father has offered to help her with the next one. The father had given her $15,000 for her first wedding, which ended in divorce after three years. For her second wedding, he gave her $5,000 for a smaller and more intimate wedding, which ended in divorce after only one year. Her third marriage was to the man who got her pregnant while she was married to another man. They divorced before their son turned one. The daughter has met the love of her life again and needs money for the wedding. What do you think about the father’s offer to help his daughter with her fourth wedding?
