While asking for permission to go out with friends is normal, this woman took it to another level by asking to sell their home so she could afford her graduation trip.
An Indonesian woman has sparked widespread outrage after a video surfaced showing her demanding that her brother sell their family home so she could celebrate her graduation with a trip to Bali.
‘I’ll be embarrassed if I don’t go!’
The video, uploaded on TikTok, shows the young woman shouting at her brother, insisting that she would feel ashamed if she didn’t join her friends on the trip.
I’ll be embarrassed if I don’t go to Bali with my friends. No matter what, I still want to go!”
In response, her brother calmly explained that the family had already mortgaged their house to cover the cost of her education.
He also pointed out that their mother had taken a job as a cleaner to help fund her studies.
Netizens’ reaction
The exact location of the incident remains unclear, but the video has already garnered over one million views on TikTok and sparked heated debate online.
“Back when my school had a trip to Bali, I didn’t go either because I thought about my family’s financial situation… pride wasn’t even a factor.”
“She’s never experienced how hard it is to earn money. Try asking her to make the money herself for the Bali trip… let’s see if she can actually do it…”
“Wow, threatening to mortgage the house just for a graduation trip?”
