A bride-to-be has been branded a “terrible human being” in a viral Facebook post after asking if it is ok to ban her groom’s daughter, three, from attending their wedding.

The unknown woman prompted outrage online after claiming she wanted to stop the little girl from attending the ceremony because she was marrying her partner, “not his crotch goblin”.

In the post, which was shared in a Facebook wedding group on Monday, she detailed the reasons she didn’t want the toddler to attend after asking people in a wedding group for advice.

She wrote: “I put ‘no kids’ on the invites so I thought he’d get the point, but he keeps mentioning her being there

“I am marrying him, not his crotch goblin. That’s his mistake, not mine. I don’t’ want her there because she’s needy as f*** and makes everything about her AND I said no f***ing kids!”

The bride-to-be had asked for advice in a wedding group, on Facebook

The woman’s post was met with a barrage of criticism, with the post attracting more than 1,000 comments.

One person commented: “I'm pretty child-free and I think this is absolutely abhorrent.

“If you don't want to be in a partner’s kid's life, don't be with that person at all! When I was single I had a strict no dating parents policy for this reason.”

Another shocked reader of the post wrote: “She’s three, of course she makes everything about her…that’s all she knows.

“This marriage (if it happens) is gonna end quick or last way too long and be horrible the entire time.”
