I (18F) do all the shopping in the house. Its been my job since I was like 12. My dad hates going shopping so i never ask him. For Christmas, i am cooking. I had a very specific grocery list because im making things that i havent made before. My parents didn’t let me go shopping yesterday so I had to go today. My dad said he would grab certain things to help me out and i said okay. I gave him a list. I really needed chicken thighs and blocks of cheese. He came home with ground chicken and only mozzarella cheese thats pre shredded.
I told my mom about it because this isn’t the first time hes done this and its made me upset. She got mad at me for being upset with him because we never ask him for anything. I have asked him multiple times to get things for me and he either gets the wrong thing, doesn’t get anything i need or complains.
For example, i wanted to go shopping before my wisdom tooth removal. I had a list of things with pictures because he said he could grab it and certain brands make me sick. He got 4/20 things on the list and said everything else was not necessary. He went with my money and said that.
Now my moms upset with me because she is in debt from always buying stuff for the house. But the whole reason that’s happened is because of my dads weaponized incompetence. So am i the Asshole for being mad at me dad and telling my mom?
TL;DR Dad got the wrong things at the store after getting a list with pictures. Im mad because it has happened multiple times. And mom is made because i told her.
