A groom has caused a dramatic rift between himself and his brother after kicking him and his family out of his child-free wedding. Earlier this week, the groom in question, Redditor u/Road-Block30554, took to the site's <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/AmItheAsshole/comments/p5s4ja/aita_for_making_my_brother_leave_after_he_brought/">"Am I The A**hole"</a> forum to share his side of the story and to ask others whether they think he did his brother wrong by turning him, his wife and their four kids way from the ceremony. He shared: "Ramsey married young and has 4 kids that he takes everywhere he and his wife go. They're always there at every family event. The kids are grade A, hyperactive to say the least." The groom says he handed his brother the child-free wedding invite in person and noted that Ramsey didn't seem happy about his kids being excluded from the occasion - but did appear to accept the decision. <img class="size-full wp-image-1263121882" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/BWKG2B-1-e1628601075220.jpg" alt="" width="1300" height="851" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Andrea Matone / Alamy]] However, when the wedding came around, Ramsey and his wife didn't show up until shortly before the ceremony began. And when they did arrive, the groom says his best man notified him that all four of his kids were with him. He immediately confronted his brother over the rule break and said he wanted him and his family to leave. The newlywed explained: "He also called me a simp for agreeing to my wife's 'stupid' rule, saying, if that was him, and his wife even hinted he couldn't have the family's kids at their wedding he would've dropped her right there right then. "It was humiliating and loud enough for the guests to notice. My in-laws did too. I told him to leave that's when my mom and aunt tried to convince me to let it go and let them stay but I refused and had him leave after a massive argument between us." Since the wedding, the Reddit user admits that a number of people close to him have criticized his handling of the situation - especially his dad. <img class="size-full wp-image-1263108767" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/05/wedding-1.jpeg" alt="" width="1535" height="800" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Pexels]] However, on Reddit, there was an entirely different consensus. An overwhelming majority of those who responded to the post felt that the groom was "not the a**hole", and reasoned that his brother should have respected his wishes. One person wrote: "As a parent, I hate people like the brother so much. Makes the rest of us parents look like idiots. I didn’t even read it, and I will say NTA. Childfree is child-free FFS. Get a sitter. Damn. Quit pushing your kids down people’s throats." Another said: "No kidding!! I mean, the bride and groom get to make the call about their wedding. Don't like it? Don't go. If it seems unreasonable to you, DON'T GO. If you care about the people, send a nice gift anyway." However, a third commenter decided that pretty much everyone involved in the situation was in the wrong and sympathized with his brother's family who would presumably have been hurt after being barred entry into the ceremony. The commenter said: "I'd say potentially every sucks here. Because the brother made a valid point. It sucks that the kids weren't invited to their uncle's wedding, especially if they were close to the uncle. "That would be so hurtful for his brother's family. Depending on how young they were too - of course." <img class="wp-image-1263123244 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-19-at-14.39.22.png" alt="" width="1173" height="481" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] <img class="wp-image-1263123243 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-19-at-14.40.07.png" alt="" width="1153" height="426" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] <img class="wp-image-1263123242 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-19-at-14.44.07.png" alt="" width="1187" height="506" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] Who do you think was in the wrong?
