Though all of us try our best to become independent adults who can always rely on ourselves, we still need help from others. Since you never know what life could throw at you, make sure you have some reliable people around to count on when you're in need. For many people, it's their family who always have their back and go through thick and thin with them, but Redditor's parents in the story below may not be that reliable.

The Reddit account u/Otherwise-Painter-67 turned to the Reddit community to ask if she was wrong when asking her parents to take her home. Due to an accident, the poster suffered from lots of health problems, so she needed others' help to handle her life. Luckily, she got a loyal friend that always stayed by her side - a service dog that even came to work with her. She wore a back brace and brought many types of medication along to her workplace.

One day, she got a stiff back and an acute headache, which was so terrible that she took both a painkiller and muscle relaxer together. After 15-20 minutes, her pup was alerted to a seizure. She got a seizure for about 15 minutes and decided not to drive home. Though her four-legged buddy tried its best to help, it couldn't drive her home, so she called her parents for help. Unexpectedly, her parents had a go at her, so she was worried that she had asked an unreasonable demand.

In response to this thread, the public sided with the Reddit user. Most of them agreed that people with seizure shouldn't drive in most cases. Their health issue was unpredictable, meaning they could lose control while driving and cause road accidents. Therefore, they were released when the poster decided not to drive on her own.

Some people even criticized the poster's parents because of their attitude toward their daughter. The Redditor did nothing wrong when asking for help, and they should have shown compassion and love instead of snapping at their poor offspring.
