0:00.0	Stepson stole my daughter's wig, who has a terminal illness, and everyone laughed at her at the wedding.
0:07.0	My 16-year-old daughter, Megan, just finished her chemotherapy. She lost her hair in the process, and
0:13.4	she's been incredibly insecure because of it. She no longer meets friends, nor welcomes them at our
0:19.1	home, nor even meets family in person. It's been bad
0:22.4	to say the least, but her stepbrother, 18-year-old Ben, has been making it worse with his nagging
0:27.4	comments and jokes about her looks. He tried taking and posting picks of her secretly to share,
0:32.9	but I shut that down, even though my husband thought it was just harmless teasing. My husband's sister's
0:38.8	wedding was last week. The family wanted Megan to go, but she didn't want to. I spent so much time
0:44.6	trying to help her and convince her to start socializing again and see her family. She agreed

1:05.2	well until this happened. We were all sitting and we started talking about Megan's look,

1:14.3	I was shocked, I froze, but Megan yelled, then took her wig and ran.
1:19.6	Ben, his cousins and some guests, started laughing.
1:22.9	I was upset, especially when I looked over my shoulder and saw my husband sitting next to his mum and laughing.
1:28.8	I lost it on Ben and berated him in front of everyone, and then took my stuff, got Megan, got into the car and went home.
1:36.0	Ben and my husband didn't have a ride home, and my husband kept calling me, but I didn't respond.
1:41.3	He came home asking me about leaving mid-wedding and upsetting his sister,
1:45.3	and then leaving him and Ben with no ride home. I argued with him about how Ben embarrassed
1:50.2	Megan and humiliated her publicly, which must have ruined what's left of her self-esteem. He said
