As parents, as the people responsible for bringing in a human being to this world, it's their responsibility to take care of their child. That means making sure they're fed, clothed, housed, and that they get the education and the capability to take opportunities that life gives them.

It also includes taking care of their health and making sure that their health concerns are properly addressed. That's one of the basic responsibilities of parents.

As it is, unfortunately, not all parents have the same kind of mindset. While others hover over every other concern and over every little boo boo that their child has, some parents don't seem to mind.

In fact, some parents even deliberately do some things to avoid hassle or a portion of their responsibility. This story from Reddit's AmITheAsshole thread is definitely a case of this.

Ever since they were young, Redditor Parentsliedthrow3 was told by their parents that there was no cure or medication for their nose and sinus issues. They suffered through those issues night and day and when they went to the doctor, the parents just said that nothing came out of it.

When Parentsliedthrow3 grew up and finally got a hold of their medical records, however, the truth came out. Read on to find out the whole story.

It's definitely an appalling case because these parents really let their child have trouble breathing for years just because it was too much on their plate. As it seems, other Redditors also agree.

A lot of them were horrified and some of them were downright mad at how these parents acted. Check out some of the best comments.

Exactly! Those are their records and their parents had no right withholding information that could have made their life betteri

Right? How in the world do they have that kind of gal to get mad at their child for what is obviously their mistake?

It wasn't even too much work!

Of all the conditions that their child could have had, dry sinuses should have been one of the easiest to manage

They probably didn't want to see anything that would remind them of how neglectful they are?

They were thinking more of the sister's welfare than the welfare of both their children

They didn't try it just because they didn't want to

Even plants got better treatment than OP did with their parents

They skipped out on that responsibility and are still trying to do so

It's their life, it's their health, it's their body!

OP has every right to be mad at them because they've withheld important info that could have made life a lot better for OP

Shame on those parents indeed

They tick all the boxes alright

It's like they think they own every right and decision that should be made about OP

They wanted their child to be dependent on their words

If only they were reported

See? It's all about taking responsibility and actually caring for your child

Enjoy the easy breathing and the life away from those awful parents

They made life harder for OP before and who knows what else they're willing to do

They definitely failed on this one important thing

OP's parents really failed him on that aspect of his life so we're hoping that they were at least good parents in other ways. If not, we hope OP can find the courage to let them go and be with people who actually care about them.

Hopefully, OP is also in a better place in their life and won't have to deal with those sinus problems ever again.
