College Senior Sends Shockwaves Through Family After Disclosing She Won’t Be Graduating - Weeks Before Her Lavish Graduation Bash

There’s always that one story that leaves everyone shaking their heads, and this was definitely one of them.  Picture this: months of planning, invites sent, flights booked, and a graduation party that's practically set to go down in family history—only for the rug to be pulled out from under everyone. Well, this is how it all went down.

Our narrator (Original Poster) had been eagerly anticipating her daughter’s college graduation. It had been seven months of discussions, choosing the right venue, and painstakingly curating a guest list.

Family members from far and wide had even booked their flights already, ready to grace the grand occasion in grand style. But then, only a month to go before D-day, the esteemed graduate-to-be dropped a bombshell: she wouldn't be graduating. 

She confessed to flunking a crucial class the previous semester—a little detail she glossed over for four months while feeding everyone lies and spearheading the planning committee.

This revelation came as a cold shower to OP and her husband, who’d already paid for the venue, catering, and decorations—all non-refundable.

OP informed her daughter that she would be the one to break the news to every single guest. Yes, she’d make the dreaded calls to relatives and also offer to reimburse them for their flights if refunds weren’t granted by the airline.

Naturally, this did not sit well with the college senior. A heated argument followed and even OP’s husband who believed she was being a tad too harsh eventually sided with her.

Was OP really being a jerk like her daughter claimed?
