Mother is SLAMMED for telling fellow parent their daughters can’t be friends anymore – because she doesn’t think the other child is INTELLIGENT enough

Intelligence means the speed with which they see things as they are, and a mother was quickly seen as an asshole for interfering with her daughter’s friendship; declaring that her friend wasn’t smart enough.

The woman posted on Reddit’s ‘Am I The A**hole’ Subreddit, explaining that her high school daughter ‘Sophie’ was the best friend of a girl named Kat.

“They were best friends in grade school, but since high school they’ve grown apart,” she explained.

“The school distributed the kids in advance, and that’s normal for math and science,” she continued. “All the other classes are still together.”

The mother explained that her daughter was placed in the advanced program and Kat was placed in the regular program.

“No problem, they still see each other at school,” the mother wrote. “They were still good friends until the group projects.”

According to the mother, it was the group projects where the friendship fell apart, explaining that there have been several group projects and children get to choose their partners.

“Kat and Sophie usually work together, and then trouble starts,” she explained.

“Sophie became very frustrated when the work Kat was doing was not correct.”

According to the woman, she told her daughter to just turn it in without fixing it, and she received a bad grade on that assignment.

After that, Sophie started fixing Kat’s work, and the mother told her daughter to stop doing group projects with her.

“So they stopped doing projects together and the friendship exploded,” she said. “So they’re not friends anymore.

The mother was declared an ‘a**hole’ in an overwhelming response to the Reddit post

We moved on to Sophie’s birthday and Kat wasn’t invited, prompting the mother to get a call from Kat’s mother asking why she wasn’t invited.

“I told her they’re not really friends anymore, she said she should invite her anyway because this is just an argument,” she said. “I told her that the people who were invited were people my daughter wanted to have at the event.”

The mother said the conversation lasted “for a while” and came to a head when Kat’s mother asked her why they were no longer friends.

“I said it was due to the intelligence level of both girls, and tried to explain the problem of the group project,” she said. ‘She got angry and accused me of calling her child stupid (I never said that). She called me a jerk.”

The overwhelming response from Reddit users criticized the mother for being in the wrong and accused her of raising a selfish child.

‘YTA. You’re probably smart enough to know that while you didn’t call her stupid, you said it all,” one outraged user wrote.

“You could have just said the friends were fighting about school projects, they said. “Be wary of raising a child to believe that he or she is intellectually superior to other children. Such children often fall flat in their twenties, when grades are no longer important.

She explained: ‘Kat may by then thrive with a group of friends who recognize her best qualities.’

“YTA and in such a way that I’m afraid the universe is collapsing around you,” said another, slapping the mother.

‘First of all, intelligence isn’t really something the way you think of it. Seek out and consider Gardner’s intelligences. Is your daughter really that advanced in all areas? Apparently not socially,” the man joked.

“You kind of called her kid stupid,” one irate person commented.

They continued: ‘It was completely unnecessary. Leaving it at ‘They’re not friends anymore and Sophie doesn’t want to invite Kat’ was more than enough information for the other mother.”

Another pointed out that the mother could have simply said the girls had grown apart.

“I think she enjoyed telling the other mother that her child wasn’t as smart as hers, and now she seems shocked that the mother is offended,” they theorized.
