A Reddit user named HallNum032 took to the platform seeking advice after constantly dealing with his 16-year-old daughter’s worsening attitude.
He noticed her behaviour changed when she started hanging out with a different set of friends in school. The man was the first to admit that his daughter used to be polite.
He and his wife suspected that she began adapting her new friends’ attitudes, as they were known as the mean type, and one day they finally had enough.
Their daughter was no longer the soft-spoken, polite young girl they once knew. She started to comment on people’s looks and belongings and use negative words to describe others.
Worried about how his daughter was growing up, the concerned father sat her down several times to discuss her bad behavior. He went so far as to admit her attitude negatively affected those around her.
One person constantly affected by his daughter’s behavior was their housemaid. “My daughter has chosen her to be her target for hair, clothes, ‘etiquette’ criticism,” the man explained.
When their housemaid could no longer take it, she complained to her bosses that their daughter was calling her offensive names. She would call their helper “filthy” and “gross” for cleaning even the dirtiest areas of their home.
The father couldn’t help but feel ashamed of how his daughter was acting. He took a stand and warned her that one more misdemeanor against their housemaid would result in punishment she wouldn’t want.
Days later, she approached her father, saying she couldn’t find her phone after searching everywhere.
He thought she would finally listen to him after such a stern warning. However, his daughter continued calling their helper “filthy,” leading to the 16-year-old getting grounded. The teenager threw a fit and began accusing the housemaid of lying.
That same day, she had a party to go to but her father barred her from attending for what she did. She was livid and blamed the housemaid for being the reason she couldn’t go out.
Days later, she approached her father, saying she couldn’t find her phone after searching everywhere. The young woman asked her father to call her phone, and he did. The phone rang from the housemaid’s bag to his and his wife’s surprise.
He immediately confronted their housemaid, and she vehemently denied it, crying that she never touched the phone, nor did she know how it got to her bag. During that time, the daughter kept calling their housemaid a “thief.”
The man told his daughter to stop and go to her room. What the high school junior hadn’t anticipated was that her bad behavior would make her father distrustful toward her and that he’d take measures to try and find out the truth.
How Did the Redditor Find the Real “Thief” and What Were the Repercussions?
HallNum032 checked their surveillance camera before deciding what to do, and what he discovered stunned him. The parent saw his daughter putting the phone inside their housemaid’s bag. The man was furious at his daughter for setting up the innocent woman.
