A week ago, my parents threw me a surprise dinner at a very fancy restaurant with all of my family members to celebrate my 17th birthday. When it came to ordering food, I decided to order quite a bit since i hadn’t eaten all day. When everyone finished ordering, I overheard my grandmother making comments on my order and how if i keep eating like that i’d get fatter than i already was. Deciding to not create drama, I discreetly brought it up with my parents and they confronted my grandmother. Very loudly, she exclaimed “I’m telling the truth! Look at the size of her! I don’t know how you let her order that much!” She had made comments about my weight multiple times in the past and i’ve tried to shrug it off or ignore her since i’m the average weight for my age. The restaurant went silent. I dropped my stuff and got up and exclaimed that she shouldn’t be talking because she was fatter than me. I got up and walked outside for some air. Around 5 minutes later my mother walked out and berated me for speaking to my grandma like that and how i should apologise. I refused and she called me a spoiled brat.

it’s been a week and my parents refuse to talk to me and my other family members are on my side

My parents think i should be the bigger person and let it go but she humiliated me infront of everyone. AITA?
