Asked me to ask my parents to not talk about politics at all on a trip they’re paying for. Around the Fourth of July. Bc her bf is overseas “I don’t wanna hear about the war”. My parents never talk about overseas stuff, don’t even really talk politics

You literally could’ve asked your parents in the time it took to write this post. Takes 30 seconds

AITA for just finding that stupid? I live with them and it’s not like it’s their life, they don’t shove it down anyone’s throat. I also believe that if it does affect her life because her boyfriend‘s overseas then maybe she shouldn’t just block it out. I get the interest, but it affects her life. She shouldn’t just walk it out.

I just think it’s dumb to ask when we pay near 100% of this trip, and they don’t even talk about politics (she knows this)
