We are back again today with another great Reddit post to look into from the AITA thread. Ultimately, these threads are where people come to get unbiased opinions and advice on their particular situation.

Very often, these posts are pretty entertaining, and they get a lot of engagement on them in the comments as well, which is part of the reason we love going over them. With this all being said, today's post was submitted by a guy who is trying to see if he's wrong for telling his cousin to get his kids food from a burger joint if they are hungry instead of preparing them some sort of meal.

Now the situation is a little odd with all the details, so it's essential to read the post before deciding your verdict; so you'll want to read thoroughly and understand the whole situation. If you're interested in hearing why exactly he told them that instead of just making them some food, then keep on reading because we're going to give you the full situation.

Let's dive in and check out the full post, plus all of the best comments as well, to get an idea of the different perspectives they have too.

OP's post was pretty short and straight to the point, but they explained the situation and gave us some details on why the food was denied.

OP also decided to give a few edits which helped us understand a bit more about their situation and why things were the way that they were.

People came to the comments to let him know that he actually wasn't in the wrong for this and that the cousin should've fed his kids.

This could also be the case too that he just was trying to rely on someone else to take care of the kids, but also he may have genuinely forgot/needed some assistance.

There were a lot of different perspectives taken in the comments and this was one of them. If they knew what time they'd be eating then he definitely should've fed them prior.

People were appalled by the way the dad was handling his children and making sure that they were fed. It's kind of odd how long it took him to feed them.

That's part of it too because if I was his mom I'd definitely have something to say to him about this for sure.

Yes he should;ve been more cautious and gotten them food before they arrived if he knew that they would be waiting until 8pm for dinner.

He shouldn't have expected the food, and he should've prepared better to ensure that his kids were not starving by the time they got there.

They both are kind of in the wrong because if it was me, I'd feed the kids, but also he should have been more prepared and fed them prior to coming.

People were in agreement for the most part in the comments, and people actually had a lot of different perspectives to take on when it came to this. So it definitely was wrong for the dad not to feed his kids before coming, but some people did say that as a host, and their family, OP should have just fed the kids.
